Oceano Restaurant

Best Portuguese restaurant in East London.
Amazing food and has options for vegetarians which was perfect for me. If you miss Portuguese food or want to try it, highly recommend this place!

Not just my favourite Portuguese restaurant in London but pretty close to my favourite restaurant in London. Authentic, generous portions and friendly service await.
Never had a bad dish here as I have worked my way through the menu.
Good value also

A real treat — took my parents here as they were visiting. Can’t recommend the mixed fish grill enough, absolutely superb. Definitely coming back…

Ein wunderbares Restaurant in Leyton. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und das Essen ist sehr lecker. Die Stimmung im Restaurant ist entspannt. Sehr zu empfehlen. Bis 22 Uhr kann man Essen bestellen.

Very cute little place, fast service, good presentation and primo food! We were there for about an hour and it went so fast we thought we had been there longer. We loved it. Super filling, friendly staff and good for kids as well :-) Its on Leyton high road so its a ln easy and convenient place to find.

Great food, great service. I come back each time I come to London

This place was recommended to me by a friend of mine and it didn’t disappoint.
The restaurant is very easy to find, located near Leyton Green Road. Both it’s interior and exterior are very nice. The art on the walls is diverse and each piece is unique in its own way, but they compliment each other very well. Additionally all the staff are very warm and friendly. Our waitress was just finishing her shift, but never the less she put her uniform back on and too our order.
We ordered the Pasta
Oceano, Mixed salad and the soup of the day, which was bean soup. From all the things we ate there I totally recommend trying the soup. It was so well prepared that my wife even asked if she could have the recipe for it and surprisingly they agreed to give their recipe to her. Imagine that!
All in all the best place in the area, which offers quality food at reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend this to my friends.

My husband and I arrived at about 3pm on Saturday where upon we were instantly met by a waitress (who had got up from a table where she was eating her own lunch) to seat us and provide us with menu’s accompanied with a bread basket and olives. The restaurant was not particularly busy at this time only a large group seated near the counter area who seemed to be having a good time. I noticed *2 plasma screens one at each end of the restaurant showing the Benfica /​Maritimo FC. game, the volume was turned down to allow for the background music which was a mixture of Portuguese/​Angolan to be heard. I also noticed the wheel chair friendly slope leading into the restaurant from the street, this obviously made it easier for families bringing their toddlers in buggies to dine. I decided on a plate of mussels and a glass of Super bock, my husband just a Super bock. The service so far was good and attentive. When my food arrived it looked and tasted delicious, so much so, that my husband used some bread to wipe up the sauce as he could no longer resist the aroma. I noticed couples coming and going for food and drink over the next few hours. At about 6pm, the waitress began to set up tables with ‘Reserve’ signage upon them, nearly ¾ of the restaurant was designated in this way. It was evident that where we were seated was in their prime reserve area and so we offered to move to a table nearest the window, which the waitress was grateful for. The ambiance of the restaurant was good, it was also evident that a large percentage of Customers were either extended family of the owners or loyal regulars, as they interacted with each other so easily. We had been casually drinking since 3pm and it was now about 8.30pm the time seemed to fly by, the restaurant was filling up now and people were actually being turned away quite frequently because they had not pre-​booked. We felt quite lucky and decided to order dinner. I ordered Bean soup (soup of the day) followed by Pork/​clams with potatoes, my husband had monkfish skewer with squid and prawns followed by steak with mushroom sauce topped with an egg and spinach. The food was very good with plenty of taste, the additional staff had plenty to do but were always polite and attentive. When we decided to leave, after having spent 7 hours just lazily passing the day away the bill amounted to £80 for the 2 of us, which I feel was very reasonable. I will be visiting this restaurant again.

A fresh fish restaraunt with amazing dishes and fantastic flavours… in leyton! Well worth a visit.

I am from Hamburg, Germany, originally where you have Portuguese restaurants everywhere. My partner is Portuguese. So we were searching desperately for a nice Portuguese restaurant in London. We prefer to eat meat more than fish but a lot of Portuguese restaurants focus on fish.
The Oceano has both: Fish and meat dishes. I love their black pepper beefsteak. My partner enjoys their spicy chicken. His family visited us last weekend. His parents and his brother had fish and they loved it.
It’s a very nice family restaurant and very cheap for London as well. Most of the dishes cost less than 10 pounds.
The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. They don’t really have a disabled toilet but the Ladies was big enough for my wheelchair.
