Ocean Restaurant stands as Jersey's premier fine dining destination, housed within the prestigious Atlantic Hotel and commanding breathtaking views over the island's coastline. This upmarket a la carte restaurant showcases modern British cooking in a classic setting with an emphasis on fresh Jersey produce.
The restaurant is helmed by executive chef Will Holland, who joined The Atlantic Hotel in October 2017 and has successfully earned Four AA Rosettes for Ocean Restaurant. Holland has worked in an array of Michelin-star kitchens - including winning his first Michelin star at La Bécasse - and champions a culinary philosophy that focuses on celebrating exemplary British ingredients.
The restaurant's design perfectly reflects its coastal location. Blues, whites and beiges create a modern classic look, while hand-crafted furniture and specially commissioned artwork emphasise the feeling of luxury. White American shutters frame stunning views over the gardens to the ocean and famous sunsets beyond.
Ocean's menus demonstrate Holland's passion for seasonal produce, showcasing the finest ingredients from Jersey's fields and shores. This ethos is evident across the full range of dining options, from an impressive la carte offering to a Taste of Jersey tasting menu, to a daily changing market menu that features the best of seasonal produce that day. While dishes change constantly with the seasons, examples might include grilled Jersey seabass fillet with couscous, artichoke hearts, griddled courgettes and strawberry vierge dressing, or cherry molasses-glazed duck breast with potato cake, turnip puree, pickled cherries, pak choi and stem ginger duck sauce.
Elsewhere, guests can find various seasonal offerings that rotate throughout the year, including a Sunday BBQ lunch, and an alfresco menu to enjoyed on its terrace, available during the warmer months.
Drinks wise, the restaurant maintains an extensive wine list that perfectly complements the food.
