Ocean Room Sydney

Ocean Room, a seafood restaurant redefining Sydney dining with a modern style coastal cuisine, combines fresh seafood with exciting flavours from traditional Japan and contemporary Australia. One of the most appealing things about the restaurant is the personal touch. Executive Chef, Raita Noda always ensures that his customers have a memorable experience catering to their specific tastes.

Chef Raita Noda has always focused on his customers to create a unique taste, wanting it to be different from the traditional style. Insisting on a higher quality of food and creativity, Chef Raita Noda redesigns Australian Japanese. Passionate about being customer focused, he always knows what is happening inside as well as outside of the kitchen enquiring how the customers are reacting to his food and changing the meals accordingly. The 10 course meal, 7 entrees and 3 main courses are slightly changed each evening depending on the guests.

Three of the dishes: an entrée of mainly vegetables, a dish of scampi and a plate of sashimi were all beautifully presented. All of the dishes tasted superb, but the dish that stood out most to me was the sashimi platter, mainly because it was distinctive in style and taste. These pieces had a smooth, creamy texture with a rich taste leaving a lasting impression on the
pallet, unique to any other sashimi in Sydney.

The entrée selection of vegetables had a fresh and vibrant taste while the dish of scampi contrasted to both dishes being an intense mix of chilli and black beans. These two dishes show the unique taste Chef Raita Noda has created, which are constantly changing as he looks for new and exciting dishes to capture the imagination of his customers.

The food melts in your mouth as you admire the high concept décor and a stunning design combining complex palates of colour, shape and form. From the room you notice the spectacular backdrop of the Opera House and Darling Harbour, a perfect setting for this sensational seafood.
