Ocean Club

Ocean Club is a Cameron Mitchell restaurant located in Columbus, Ohio in the Easton Mall. It offers a variety of seafood. If you do not happen to enjoy seafood, they also offer chicken, steak, and porkchops.

I was lucky enough to visit this location with my grandmother for a birthday dinner. We enjoyed a very relaxing dining experience with an attentive and knowledgeable waiter. I am also gluten free and found it did not mar the experience at all. The waiter made sure to talk with the chef and were vigilant with my food needs.

My grandmother and I started our meal with a bottle of wine and their Oysters Rockefeller which is not listed as gluten free but upon further discussion, realized it should be listed as such. Never having had oysters before, I wasn’t sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised and then some. I damn near licked the plate, it was so delicious.

Our next course was the Ocean Roll sushi. It can be hard to find sushi that is gluten free so I tend to get it whenever I can. The tuna, salmon, hamachi, avocado, and chili garlic oil roll was tender and delicious as is most Cameron Mitchell sushi.

The Ocean Club House Salad was what we ordered next. Now, I’m a lettuce, cheese, onion, and ranch dressing kind of salad girl. Lots of ranch. So I was amazed that I enjoyed a salad that included apples, goat cheese, walnuts, and a sherry mustard vinaigrette. The sweetness from the apples and dressing melded well with the goat cheese and the walnuts added a nice crunchy texture to top it off.

We then had our main meal of Chilean Sea Bass that came with broccolini, pearl onion, potato puree, and a truffle vinaigrette. It was lovely though by this time I was getting full and wanted to save room for dessert. Dessert was a Crème Brule and a port wine. Then for an extra dessert I had an espresso martini. I thought the port wine was too sweet at first, but after sipping on it for a little while, I ended up liking it, while the martini was good but not something I would order again.

I very much enjoyed my time at the Ocean Club. I felt welcomed and I enjoyed the way the atmosphere gave off the vibe of leisurely dining. I hope to go back again soon.
