Food was very good, lots of fresh seafood not from frozen. Service kept this restaurant from being a 4 star. Waitress was a little rude when we had problems with our drinks (flat, sent back and got flat ones again).
Really good, Excellent!!!! .... Really good, Excellent!!!!
Had the Crab Cakes, Mussels, Citrus Salad with Blackened Salmon. I think i'm going to explode but really worth every bite.
Will do it again!

Delicious sauce with Linguine Del Mar
Great Spot. I have been going here for years, the service, food and atmosphere are all wonderful. I'm not a seafood person, but the pasta's are great. Best caesar salad and creme brulee I've ever had.
I went here on valentines day and was pretty pleased. Service was a bit slow but it was understandable seeing how busy it was. The bruschetta had very fresh ingredients on it and the Mac and cheese was amazing! I would definitely go back.
One of my favourite restaurants for years!!. I have celebrated many anniversaries, birthdays, etc., at this fine restaurant. My husband and I have been eating here for at least 10 - 12 years and have never had a bad meal yet. The food is top notch and the service is as well. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants an incredible meal!!
We visited Shrimp Cocktail for the first time, on the day of our anniversary, June 25. We went for dinner and everyone working was very pleasant. The lady with the accent (Irish) I could be very wrong, she was our server and she was amazing. Very helpful and courteous, I do still wish that there was chocolate for the rim of my glass for my chocolate martini, which was delicious none the less. Our dinner I had salmon and with wheat berry and some damn good veggies and my husband had the ribeye cooked to the perfect medium along side potatoes, mushrooms and spinach also very very good. For dessert we had this carrot cake mix with cheese cake, drizzled with caramel, definitely a fight at the table for the last bite. The young lady who came to check on us she was so nice and offered us a complimentary drink to celebrate our anniversary, that was real nice. Our night was amazing and we will definitely be back with a new his and her shirt on😉

Simply a wonderful culinary experience. Everything from the flavors, textures, beautiful plating and the conversations with the chefs was perfect.
The chefs sincerely care about the experience that they are providing and they check in personally to ensure everything is as amazing as it should be, which it was!
I had the 5oz wild caught black Cod (4.8/5) which was so tender and flavorful, the accompanying vegetables were plentiful (not just a tiny taste like some nice restaurants) and cooked perfectly crisp which was great with the succulent fish. The miso broth was an explosion of flavor that was unforgettable and added a amazing pop to the plate. The shape and cuts on the mushrooms were a super fun touch, making them look like small fish; the attention to detail is no joke.
I can't comment on the other plates pictured as I did not try them. Not pictured were oysters from 2 areas of canada which were amazing as well as jumbo prawns which were the best I've ever had, basically a mini lobster!
Compliments to the chef:
Kiwi lamb shank was melt in the mouth.
Tiger shrimp was crispy outside and tender&juicy inside, which was matching nicely with the refreshing pineapple sauce.
Scallops are well done wrapped in crispy bacon, and the presentation was great.
Also we had excellent service, which is rare these days. She went extra mile to make sure we are happy with the food and drinks.
Definitely going back next time we are in Oshawa.
I took my girlfriend here for her 40th birthday and the food and service were both excellent! We had oysters which were fresh and delicious, and my mussels were buttery, huge and so tasty!
10/10 will be back!
First time visiting Shrimp Cocktail and I got to say, the experience was fantastic! The service was very friendly, the food was some of the best I've ever had and the vibe was very romantic! If you'd like to splurge a little on dinner or have a special occasion, I highly recommend visiting!
We popped in for some late evening snacks and cocktails and were pleasantly surprised. We enjoyed the patio atmosphere and our server was great! We certainly satisfied a couple of cravings we’ve been having and have now officially made Shrimp Cocktail our go to spot for fresh oysters on the half shell. We enjoyed it so much that we’ll be booking my dad’s 75th B-Day dinner there in a couple of weeks so we can try a few more menu items.
We made a reservation for a celebration just a few days before the occasion. It was the first time we were going to visit this place and booked it based on reviews. And we did not regret it. Our waitress was amazing and knowledgeable, and the owner, as well as the chef, were super friendly. We had the best time in Shrimp Cocktail and everyone made sure to make our day even more special. The food was absolutely amazing! We ordered almost every position from the dinner menu and every new dish was better than the previous one. This is the best restaurant in Oshawa with delicious food, hospitable staff, and great prices. I can't wait to visit again!
5 stars is not enough! Food is amazing here! We got the cesar salad and oyster Rockefeller to start and lamb shanks for the main and everything was delicious! We were too full to finish our main but guaranteed they won't last long on the ride home! Wanda(the owner) and her team are amazing and she personally came to check in on us which is much appreciated and shows that she really cares for her customers. We will definitely come back just to try everything on the menu!
