This was our third visit to Ocean Star and I would say I am still pretty impressed. The fish was well prepared and the prices very reasonable. My only ding would be service. Took some time to get someone to take our order and when we asked for water it was given to the other couple next to us. That... More

My husband and I ate at Ocean Star a few weeks ago while visiting Anna Maria. We were both very excited after reading the reviews and both huge sushi fans. We had ordered uni and after one piece my husband told me it wasn't fresh and we asked to substitute it for a different type of sushi. The waiter asked... More

My husband and I had an excellent meal here. The staff was very courteous and kind the fish was fresh and the rice was pretty good, we ordered too much food. We had a couple of the special rolls and a ton of the sashimi. I would recommend it to anyone.

Its a good go-back again Asian place. Snuggy booths, or tables, an active sushi bar where you can eat and chat with friendly guys making your dinner. Yes a family place.

We arrived at our Anna Maria island accomadations close to 7:30 and wanted something light And healthy, sushi right? On our gluten free diet we are encouraged to eat avocado.

Make sure you're ready to wait-especially during season! This place is so good it gets jammed even during non-season. Locals and tourists love it. Cozy interior, casual, good service, ok prices. Salads are awesome, sushi is awesome, tempura items on menu really good too. No place else compares. We especially love the Love roll and the Hawaiian is our favorite.

...you'll love this place. It's authentic, it's tastey, it's priced right and the service is great. I have had sushi in so many different cities and have never had it as well here, right in my backyard!

We live on the island and try to come to Ocean Star once a week. The "Green Salad" is one of the best salads you will ever find. The sushi and service are outstanding as well ....highly recommend it.
