Who We Are
Oceanside Cuisine is a blog website dedicated to covering and showcasing all the best and worst food places that you can come across here. Whether the place is fast food, fine dining, or some food you buy from the store, we review it all and tell you what to get and what to avoid. Since its founding in 2010, Oceanside Cuisine’s editorial staff and contributors have journeyed to every nook and cranny of this city to find the best eats money could buy. Many of us here have also worked in the restaurant industry. Across the board, we’re a group of passionate, opinionated food enthusiasts with a drive to dive deep, get things right, and do justice to any topic we take on.
Why Do This?
In our case, this blog started when a friend of ours went to multiple restaurants downtown and had the horrible experience of being charged 50 dollars for a few sandwiches that did not even taste good! After that experience, we decided to start the blog to inform people on places before they go so that customers do not go out expecting a nice meal but then get blindsided by horrible food and prices that can ruin your meal. Now whether you’re a hardcore food nerd making a special-occasion feast or a casual, once-a-week cook who’s just looking for your next dinner, we go to every place, regardless of how small or big it may be since anyone can eat anywhere and everyone should be informed of if the place you go to is good or not.

Editorial Director
Daniel is the editorial director of our blog. He started back in 2012 and has helped improve our blog post tremendously by incorporating free lance photographers and artist who elevate the images we post on the site and create graphics to make the site more vibrant. Before he came along we use to take pictures as best we could using our phones and digital cameras, but once he joined, the level of quality we had improved drastically and we have loved working with him since!
