Oceanaire Turns Five

The press release doesn't note the day, but does tell us that The Oceanaire Seafood Room has served 135,000 crabcakes since they opened their doors five years ago this week. Chain or no, Chef Ryan Nelson has become an important part of the cheffing community in Indianapolis and consistently produced terrific meal with incredible seafood. There's no denying these days that the Oceanaire has become one of our consistently best restaurants. (And Nelson has built the Indianapolis location into one of the Oceanaire's top grossing locations nationally.) Congratulations to Ryan and his entire team!
