Top choice in Balikpapan
Fresh fish and crustaceans (the menu is a book in itself) are the standout here, but there's also steaks, burgers, pizzas, Indian and Indonesian dishes, all served in a fine open-air or indoor waterfront space. Ocean's anchors a row of cafes along the waterfront and is (deservedly) the most popular.
Most fish and seafood is priced by weight. If the dining area is full, pull up a stool at the bar.
