Ocean8 Restaurant & Hookah — Restaurant in Chantilly

Ocean 8 Restaurant is a fantastic dining destination that truly delivers on both ambiance and cuisine. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted by a vibrant yet cozy atmosphere that sets the stage for a memorable meal. The interior design is elegant and inviting, with a contemporary style that blends seamlessly with the laid-back coastal vibe. The lighting is soft and warm, creating an ideal setting for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience.

The menu at Ocean 8 is a testament to culinary excellence. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted and beautifully presented, reflecting the restaurant’s commitment to quality and creativity. The shrimp offerings, in particular, are exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Highlights include the succulent lamb chops, JUICY chicken chop, and the most delicious sweet moth watering baklava. The attention to detail in each dish is impressive, and it’s evident that the chefs take pride in their work.

While the food and setting at Ocean 8 were undeniably impressive, there was a curious aspect of the experience that stood out. Among the staff, there was a middle-aged gentleman who was serving the hookah who seemed to take a rather unconventional approach to his role. He was frequently seen lounging and smoking hookah, and his interactions with his colleagues, although friendly, were rather peculiar. This somewhat offbeat behavior did create a bit of an unusual atmosphere, but it was more of a quirky addition to the experience rather than a significant drawback.

On the flip side, the majority of the staff at Ocean 8 were delightful. The young servers were not only professional and attentive but also incredibly charming. Their enthusiasm and genuine friendliness contributed greatly to the overall positive experience. It’s clear that they are passionate about their work and dedicated to providing excellent service, which made our visit even more enjoyable. Especially that one young gentleman that’s tall, handsome, bearded angel. As well as those two young beautiful girls that I wish I could be and look like….

In the heart of a bustling place, A young Jordanian girl with grace, Her eyes are oceans, deep and blue, A gentle smile, warm and true.

In apron's embrace, she weaves through the crowd, Her presence soft, yet strong and proud, With every glance and every cheer, She brightens the room, far and near.

Her hands serve more than just the meal, They bring a touch that’s real and steel, A blue-eyed beacon in the night, She turns each moment into light.

Special mention must be made of the two bosses of the restaurant. They are the epitome of elegance and sophistication, perfectly embodying the upscale vibe of Ocean 8. Both are incredibly attractive and impeccably dressed, adding a touch of glamour to the establishment. Must I add that I need them in my life and in my bedroom right now. If you guys are single hit me up. Their presence is not only visually striking but also reassuring, as it’s evident that they play a significant role in ensuring the smooth operation of the restaurant. Their charisma and well-groomed appearance definitely enhance the overall experience, making them unforgettable elements of the visit.

In conclusion, Ocean 8 Restaurant is a wonderful place that offers a delightful dining experience. The food is exquisite, the ambiance is inviting, and while there are a few eccentricities among the staff, they do not overshadow the many positives. The attractive and well-presented bosses add a final touch of allure, making the overall visit truly enjoyable. If you’re looking for a place where the food is as impressive as the ambiance and the staff are both charming and unique, Ocean 8 is definitely...

On a whim I decided I was in the mood for lamb today. After a quick Google search, I decided Ocean8 would get my business today. I was immediately and warmly greeted by the hostess, Nina, who offered me a both or table. I ordered a mint hookah and Turkish coffee to start with intent to order a lamb dish. After I informed Nina of my desire for lamb she offered several ideas, to which the lamb chops sounded best. At first I was skeptical of the image of the lamb chops on the menu (I recently order a similar dish nearby and it looked nothing like the image on the menu) but decided on it anyway. The Turkish coffee was exactly what the doctor ordered, exactly what I was hoping for… and hot! After some time I let Nina know I was prepared to order food. Once the lamb arrived I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation of the dish. The lamb was buttery, tender, and was cooked to literal perfection… and looked EXACTLY as it did on the menu, bone and all. The first bite: I was so impressed by the flavor and quality I actually gave the staff my appreciation by the universal sign “thumbs up”. The cucumber salad was extremely fresh , although a bit salty for my palate but I devoured it! The mound of rice was infused with all kinds of ingredients that I’m not familiar with so I’m not even going to try to name them. The staff ensured the hookah was constantly fueled by fresh, hot coals. I am writing this review to any prospective foodies out there — come by and taste it for yourself.

PS: The baklava is cold, covered in pistachios, and probably the best I’ve had in at...

I wish I could give no stars the experience wasn’t great at all very very expensive the food was not good we got 3-4 dishes had bad experience my stomach was hurting next day didn’t even finish the food the soup was way salty and bitter the bread that came with the soup was old and hard, as u can see nothing was eaten properly in the picture that is posted the drinks as soon as my wife took a sip she knew something was wrong it wasn’t fresh it wasn’t handmade I wouldn’t even call it a drink. At least I thought that the cheesecake we ordered would be at least decent now that’s what we thought but nah we were wrong nothing in there is fresh the cake was completely stale I really really am disappointed I got no more words. The one food I had to force myself to eat was this Alfredo coz I was hungry. The staffs were rushing to send us home that’s what we felt like I wouldn’t recommend this place coz food is something that at the end of the day it should make u happy and filling then disappointment that I had I hope you guys don’t make that’s the reason I’m writing this review and also the price was crazy it was so expensive the waiter was kind enough to give us refunds of some of the dish we didn’t like but still after cancelling those dish the bill came around $80 can’t imagine if those dishes that got canceled if we would have added and not say nothing I would be very sad!!!! Never...
