About Pearl of the Ocean


Owner and chef Ayoma Wilen took the reins at Pearl of the Ocean in 2010, and that year, the restaurant was named Best New Restaurant by both the Santa Cruz Weekly and Santa Cruz Good Times. And in 2013, she garnered the Best Chef America award. Focusing on fresh, organic ingredients, Ayoma oversees the vegetarian-focused menus that outline delectable arrangements of locally sourced ingredients, including some culled from the area’s farmers markets, and Sri Lankan spices. These arrangements are manifested in dishes as colorful and complex as a 20-sided Rubik’s Cube. Pearl of the Ocean’s staff also pours a variety of libations and non-alcoholic beverages, such as the spicy chai tea, and their signature drink, Kiss of the Island Princess, is composed of Montresor Prosecco, hibiscus flower, and love potion.

Perl of the Ocean was great!!! This Groupon was fake though and scammed this business out of a lot of money.

The food was good but prices did not match the menu I saw online ended up paying $30 on top of the $20 Groupon.

This was my first time trying Pearl of the Ocean and I was so pleasantly surprised how much I loved my meal. I can’t stop thinking about the vegetable. After Covid I’m contacting Diners, Drive ins and Dives to feature this true gem!
