Where the Land Meets the Sea
Our Story
Located in the heart of Halcyon Forsyth, Ocean & Acre is a coastal-inspired restaurant where the rugged charm of the shoreline meets the richness of the Southern countryside. Our menu celebrates this harmony—spotlighting local farms, seasonal ingredients, and the freshest seafood in Forsyth County. From wood-grilled steaks and smoked meats to raw bar favorites and garden-grown produce, it’s a place where surf and soil come together on one thoughtful, ever-evolving menu.
Start with shareable favorites like our cast iron crab cake, chargrilled oysters, or bright, citrusy tuna tartare. Then dive into signatures like NOLA-style shrimp & grits, seared Hawaiian tuna, or pan-seared red fish. Land lovers will find plenty to savor too—from the smoke-grilled pork chop to the 14 oz ribeye with port wine demi-glace, best enjoyed with a side of sweet corn hushpuppies.
Whether you’re joining us for lunch, dinner, or weekend brunch in Halcyon, gathering with friends on our outdoor patio, or sipping a Deep Sea Rita at the bar, Ocean & Acre offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere that invites you to slow down, savor, and stay awhile.
