I liked my time here. You can start by having a mix-and-match of different oysters, and each comes with their descriptions (brine/sweetness/size, etc.), which is useful for deciding. My husband and I then took the crispy halibut sandwich, which was yummy. Although the main entrees were pricier, the food tasted really good. However, I would have loved to see more options on the menu (a salmon dish, for example). The service here was fantastic though. Everyone was warm and friendly, and the food was served really fast! Also, just a suggestion: the decor could be improved with some ambient lighting.

My wife and I were in for Valentine’s Day last tonight and had a great time. The food was wonderful and the staff was very attentive. The only observation I have is that there is almost no waiting space at the entrance, so we were standing in the way a bit before being seated. Some benches or couches outside the threshold would be great.

Elm Square Oyster Co is amazing. My wife and I reserved a table for our anniversary dinner and ran into some traffic and issues which delayed us about half an hour. Roseann the owner and her staff were so accommodating and great to work with to ensure even with the hiccups we wouldn’t be waiting for a table.

It just got better when we got there. Our waiter Jessie, was probably one of the best waiters I have ever had. He was so courteous, proactive (our table was a bit off balance, he fixed it without me mentioning it) and pleasant. We had the best time due to him and other staff there.

The food is also amazing. We got oysters of course, charcuterie, mussels, and salads. The drinks were awesome.

We will be returning sooner than later!

Thank you for a great evening!!!

First time at Elm Square Oyster. Had a table available in the bar which seemed to be the place to be. Bar area was packed.

Started with couple signature drinks. I had a snowbird, it was very tasty if you like grapefruit.

Server was excellent even though it was very busy. He recommended a few oysters and off we went. Very well shucked keeping the brine in the shell and they had the usual cocktail sauce and mignonette but there was an additional sauce – spicy with maybe some Sriracha, honestly saved it for my burger/fries, it was that good.

Crab dip and chips were ok. Drip was good but I don’t love it when places serve the chips “well done”.

We then had a mushroom toast and burger. The sauce on the mushroom toast was amazing. Burger was solid and definitely a good portion.

All in all. Definitely will return. Great vibe, good food, excellent service.

Blown away! I haven’t had a meal in a long time up in the “burbs” that has blown me away and this place did that. Artfully crafted starters and mains- flavors were spot on and seasoning was perfect.
The crudo we had was refreshing and flavorful. Mushroom risotto balls were cooked to perfection, and the surprising sweetness and saltiness on them was delicious! The halibut was cooked to perfection and melted in my mouth.
We will be back!

Friendly staff, fresh seafood, overall a great experience. I enjoyed the steak a lot it was cooked perfectly. Beef tartar taste well with the bread, and they have specials for different oyster each night.

A year later, and still amazed by this team. Loved celebrating our anniversary with Elm Square Oyster!

Original:
The hostess, manager, chef, and server were all fantastic. Their “made from scratch” menu certainly doesn’t disappoint. Their oysters were shucked wonderfully. This was our first visit, and we’ll certainly be looking to return!

We have since returned and it was equally delightful!

What a wonderful first experience here. An incredible selection of oysters and the steak was perfect. We also had the lamb kebab and deviled eggs! Everything is made here fresh (the bread for the cheese plate is from boston and the cheese is obviously imported) but this restaurant is perfect for those who appreciate fresh ingredients and everything made from scratch. Not inexpensive but worth every dollar.

Would recommend and will be back. What a delicious menu and the cocktails are perfectly executed!

Menu is limited but not bad, option for every dietery needs/wants, I wouldn’t call my meal (halibut) 100% satisfying (to my taste) and the gem lettuce salad my friend ordered looked pretty poor (to me). Servers are friendly, and I give them credit for trying their best, but (again) their best is not enough for a restaurant at this price range. Atmosphere is good for a group of friends and family without young children, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a romantic date. I would go back there but wouldn’t be my first choice. I know there are a lot of “but”s on my review because the place might be perfect for someone elses taste and needs.

Just had another lovely dinner at Elm Square Oyster Co. They have never disappointed. Great quality of food, fantastic bar tenders and drinks and I love sitting at the bar and having conversations with other locals.
Today I had some fresh oysters, gin martinis and the hamburger, which to me is one of the best in. this area. Always cooked to perfection.
