Ocean Basket Gaborone Botswana is the worlds most loved seafood and sushi restaurant.

Ocean Basket Gaborone is located in Airport junction shopping centre, and offers abundant portions of seafood including fish, prawns, mussels and calamari.

It began with an ingenious dream to make seafood available to everyone. You see, this was once a delicacy accessible only to the upmarket and lavish. Well, that was before two brothers followed this dream and our home was built.

Now, this is a place where you’ll find plentiful portions of delicious seafood drizzled with irresistible creamy lemon sauce, big-hearted hospitality, and of course a little Mediterranean madness.

Our passion for food comes from the Mediterranean lifestyle where a meal means sitting down with family and friends and sharing laughter, stories and bountiful food.

Everyone is welcome into our home where we offer a distinctive relaxed guest experience, serving expertly prepared seafood from ocean to pan.

Ocean Basket Gaborone is bold and adventurous, offering speciality seafood items including prawns and calamari with their buttery, rich flavours for the more outgoing palate.

Nutritional facts and composition are available per item on our menu page providing an informed and enhanced dining experience. The Mediterranean diet offers variety, flavour and nutrient-rich foods for all.
As we source a variety of quality seafood that is responsibly wild caught or farmed all over the world, we are able to offer real value for money seafood meals. We are obsessed with making sure our suppliers are responsible, our product perfect, and our guests ecstatic

The pan

Most of our food is served piping hot straight from the grill in a pan or long metal platter. No fuss, no nonsense, just scrumptious and ready to share.

Fresh lemon

The Mediterranean coast is famous for the zesty lemons that have influenced its cuisine for centuries. Fresh and tart, lemons are a way of life for us – their aroma fills the air, their crisp, clean flavour perfectly complements seafood, and they speckle the table with bright spots of warm sunshine. Slice, squeeze with both hands and savour.

Complimentary homemade bread and sauces

When we welcome you into our home, we invite you to break bread with us, serving every guest fresh homemade bread rolls and butter and three delicious dipping sauces – tartare, garlic and chili.

Sharing

Our Meze and sharing platters are designed to encourage true Mediterranean style feasting. Taste a variety of new flavours together, eating with your hands and sharing the experience with one another.

Secret Ocean Basket spices

Developed by our founder Fats Lazarides, our secret spices provide the perfect balance between salt and spice to complement the flavours of the ocean and create the taste memories our guests take home with them.

Liquid gold creamy lemon sauce

Our super-hero. This is the devilishly delicious sauce that is a firm favourite everywhere. It’s all in the name: Creamy. Lemony. Saucy. Everyone asks for more.

Seafood specialists

We specialise in serving only quality seafood proteins – fish, prawns, mussels and calamari. We focus on simple, fresh flavours, plentiful portions and everyday great value. That’s our sole mission.

Relaxed eating

Ocean Basket is all about casual dining at a table full of family and friends where you are encouraged to relax and share laughter and food in a welcoming, warm atmosphere.
