We were attended by Zandile and Given, they were awesome...would give them 10/10
The prawn starter and the sushi is amazing. Great food and fresh. The chairs outside were a little dirty with food. Please ensure they are clean before customers are seated there but all around great place and good service. Will definitely be back soon.
The food was phenomenal, and the waitron was absolutely superb. What a lovely lunch we had with close friends of our that weve not seen in so long because of the currently ongoing pandemic.
Great seafood. Great staff.
Fresh sea food so relaxing place if you are a lover of sea food this is a place to go to
Ocean basket all round seems to lack that wow factor. They a franchise and the service was good. The food fresh so grateful they are there. Value forbid money.
Very good food. I love this place.
My first visit here and it is well organized and well presented. The waiters are patient and understanding and the food is delicious. Tried out the Fusion Platter and I must say it was divine. Very impressed!
Absolutely amazing. Stunning customer service, amazing and kind waiters, and the food is excellent. Milkshakes are also very well made. Most definitely recommend for when you go to Ushaka.
I always enjoy my visit to this place... Ocean Basket at uShaka is one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE restaurants by far... Great Vibe, The food is spectacularly delicious and the service I get is immaculate ( @Steven )... They also make killer garlic mussels and the sauce is to die for, even order it separately... its worth the try... Note to OB Management: some of us really enjoyed the Garlic Rolls you guys used to offer... Please bring that back... it was amazing... Oh and the smoking section was also such an awesome chill zone, I hate having to walk to a designated smoking section outside the restaurant to have a smoke, especially if I am not finished ordering or after the first course... we smokers are funny like that... It can be a deal breaker, but Thank you ALL for maintaining your standards and retaining customers like me...(sssshhhh... not like MOYOs...)
Was very disappointed with their starter rolls which was like rubber. I always look forward to their fresh soft rolls. The milk shake had a weird taste. Otherwise service was great
Ftiendly service. Very acommodating. Good food.
One of the best Ocean Basket franchise. The staff, the service, the food itself 😍🍲 all perfectly delivered. Keep up the good work.
Im born in South Africa. Im 57 1 love home cooked meals. I go out to eat once a month. The only place I enjoy eating out is OCEAN BASKET. THE BEST PLACE TO EAT OUT
Always a pleasure to visit Ocean Basket. The fish is always fresh with their food generally tasting good across all of their franchises. Though I personally feel that the complementary bread/buns that they serve, need to be revisited because this is a common theme amongst all the Ocean Basket restaurants I have visited. The buns at this particular restaurant were salty and dry...Overall the service was excellent and the fish to die for.
Their drinks are really nice especially the orange blossom one.. Very tasty! I had some prawns which were also very very delicious.
This is the best seafood place in Durban. We have been going here since inception and the food is still the greatest and the staff are world class. Never ever disappointed with Ocean Basket Ushaka Branch keep it up Team.
If you want fresh seafood, friendly service and a seafood restaurant in close proximity with the Ushaka marine: a fun place for kids to enjoy water slides and water activities.I enjoyed the food and service.
Best staff ever! Attended to my kids immediately, paid attention to them! Awsum staff attitude. Food.... Always fabulous at Ocean basket!
We popped in for lunch Inbetween our aquarium visit. Dolly was our waitress, and she did a fantastic job. The starter rolls werent great but our food was fast and delicious, Thank you!
Best ocean basket in durban
For lunch today we had the platter for 2 and it was delicious! The complimentary bread thats made instore is fresh and tasty! I would recommend this restaurant for sure!!!
We only went for coffee but the food looked so good we had a couple of starters that were excellent plus we shared a pudding which was good too
Food was fantastic, excellent service and friendly waiters. Well worth eating at OB.
The staff was attentive and had recommendations as well as a whole lot of Patience! The food was better than I had expected! The wine was lovely and the vibe was exactly what I was looking for!
The worst ocean basket Ive ever been to. We ordered one of their Platters and it tasted like everything was fried in burnt oil their passion & fruit cordial drink was the worst
Lacking with service but food quality is beyond expectations. Besides waiting patiently and trying wave down a waiter, the seafood was amongst the freshest and tastiest I have ever had in Durban. Its a shame the service was not on par.
It is hard to review a place like Ocean Basket because it is very much a case of seen one you seen them all.So I will review the staff who were very friendly and the cleanliness which was good.The veneer is not great being on a very busy promenade and the air-conditioner mangaged by the center meant it was Hot.Is was a very acceptable dining experience.
Excellent menu .affordable prices. Fresh tasty. 10/10 service. Will definitely be back again.
Great service and food, classic ocean basket experience
I loved the service. A friendly Mananger and welcoming. It now going to be my new home away from home.
The Fish & Calamari Option was good, however I was abit disappointed with the fish being flavorless, I had to add abit of salt to it. What was also disappointing was that specific dish does not come with that famous Ocean Basket Yellow cheese sauce on the rice, it only comes if you order a dish with prawns, to get the sauce on the side is a ridiculous R30 extra!. The Cheesy Garlic bread is heaven as always, absolutely delicious, please make sure you order it as a starter or with your meal, you will definitely enjoy it, I can guarantee it! However it was a great meal all together!
Peaceful atmosphere with great food and service.
Food and staff were terrible. We asked for grilled fish but it came back burnt. Also waitress mixed up our orders and drinks where diluted with water
Love it. Great service every time. The food never disappoints. Nice intimate setting too.
Friendly and helpful,waiter,food well prepared,however prices are steep.A big negative is the eating area on the outside veranda was flooded with water ,while it rained.we had to move table 2x.
Good service. The food is delicious. Desserts were interesting. Nicely priced.
The food at Ocean Basket is always amazing, however I was disappointed that they removed the garlic roll of the menu, my decision to eat there was based on the garlic roll. I sat down ordered drinks and then was devastated by the news. Please management rethink your decision.
They take too long with orders, you even forget you were hungry. The upside is that the food is great .
Loving their food... Well prepared and with lovely staff..
Food always excellent with very good customer service.
The place is so neat,the staff is very fast on orders and they are very friendly to the customers.... And the service is just amazing
Tasty seafood I must say... lovely
A very lovely evening. Food was excellent.
Good customer service. Nice dining area. Friendly staff
I normally come to this place but today my experience is awful. Im actually typing this while eating. Firstly someone sat me down and I was unattended for over 10 minutes when the waitron finally showed up I placed my order cause I know what I want but guess what he got my order all wrong. I wanted maki avo as a take away and to eat I wanted seafood platter for 1 . When my food came some trainee person delivered as we speak I dont know whose my waitress or waitron.
One of thr best Ocean Baskets Ive been to. Great service. Booked for a 70th birthday. Amazing food!
My friends and I spent an enjoyable evening at Ocean Basket, Ushaka. The service was excellent and the meals were perfectly prepared. Taste was beyond excellent.
Good service and pretty good food. Nothing too fantastic but its still an Ocean Basket so 🙆

Alwaz the best bt recent visit took too long 2 serve food even though they werent busy
Great food as always. Love the platter for 2
Had great service from Unzuzu (possibly not how to spell his name so apologies!!!). He was so sweet & was very honest about what dishes he thought were worth the money or not! Pretty good food & the shared strawberry daquiri was great after a day in the ocean!
Great venue, great service, decent food
My favorite retail seafood place.However on the menu ocean basket states that they have Fresh Oysters but its actually Frozen Oysters.
Good food, good atmosphere, more relaxed, waiters need to concentrate slightly more to the customer, but overall excellent
One of my favorite ocean basket location. Excellent service
Excellent service. Excellent food. Very nice atmosphere.
Hi !!!Ocean basket is amazing but this one was exceptional although the complimentary buns and food preparation time needs to be considered with crazy ocean basket fans as myself.
Nice view outside and good air from sea breeze
Great quality products for busy period... Thank you Ushaka ocean basket
Staff are really great, super welcoming and friendly. Good for an affordable, fresh fish and chips.
Amazeballs is basically prison food, rice with almost no cheese. On kids menu dont buy it.
Best value for money and great seafood always
Service was very poor and the waiter was just nonchalant about everything. The venue was not full yet the service was slow and food underwhelming. We waited long periods for our waiter and were left with no drinks. When we finished our main meal, he just brought our bill without asking or offering us dessert 🙁
Eventhough it was so busy our wait or was a star. Always there when we needed him. Great food, great service
The quality of the food is not on the same level of most other Ocean baskets. The kids area is old and lacks entertainment for the kids. The waiters where kind and made sure we where served on time.
Very tasty any extremely kind staff.
The service is great.♥️♥️♥️
Good food.They changed Menu in April 2018...a lot for good and VAT adjustment, but they withdrawn my favourite Mediterrianien fishsoup 😣
Great service, kids calamari yummy... chilled atmosphere....
The food was very nice @26/05/2018 (18h17), but the waiter was very rude because I gave him a gratuity fee of R25, he rejected it and walked away, I then called another waiter to go give it to him... Im never dining at the Ushaka Ocean Basket ever again!
Situated inside the famous UShaka marine campus. The restaurant itself is standard, just the location stands out from your normal restaurant.
