Food was amazing! Lobster roll was so full of fresh lobster it was falling out of the roll. Grillee oysters were so delicious and full of flavor. Shirly temple was perfect and just sweet enough.
My server was great, even the hostess was cheerful and pleasant.
Atmosphere was great a they play really good music too.

Try each of the oysters, it was decent, but wasn’t amazed. We also ordered all of the three cold dishes. The ceviche mixto, was so good and so pretty. The Crudo was good if you enjoy jalapeño, the dish in the back is the tuna carpaccio. Did not like that one. The grilled mussel was delicious. Was surprisingly pleased with the pecan pie with house made vanilla ice cream.

We had an absolutely delightful evening at The Oyster House that showcased their impressive Restaurant Week selections. The sweet Amalia oysters were a perfect start…briny, fresh, and beautifully presented…while the pan-seared branzino was cooked to perfection with crispy skin and tender, flaky flesh. The fried latkes offered a wonderful textural contrast, golden and crispy on the outside, and the desserts featured chocolate pretzel budino and key lime bar, which had just the right amount of tartness to cleanse the palate. The only minor drawbacks were the somewhat elevated noise level, which made conversation occasionally challenging, and their use of soy oil for frying—something to note for anyone with soy allergies. Despite these small considerations, the quality of the food and attentive service made for a memorable dining experience that we’d happily repeat.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Highly recommend as everything we tried was absolutely delicious. They have a happy hour from 4-6pm. Recommend getting a dozen oysters but trying two of each of the specialty ones on the menu. My favorites were from Maine. Definitely consider for one or two guests to order multiple small plates and eat family style as you truly want to try all of the flavors. The octopus in ramen was tender and mouthwatering good. The tuna carpacchio was fresh and perfection with the saltiness of the capers and the citrus with the lime juice.

My friend and I went there for happy hour, and the front desk staff was very friendly. We sat at the bar, and the oysters were so fresh. It was also fun watching the staff shuck the oysters while we were eating. All the other dishes were soooo tasty as well! Definitely coming back for dinner next time.

I hadn’t visited in years, but this place is still a gem! The quality of the food is outstanding; everything was incredibly fresh and decadent. The oysters were especially fresh, and the seasoning on our entrees was spot-on. Beyond the food, the service was top-tier. They run a tight ship—our appetizers, drinks, and food arrived at perfect intervals with absolutely no waiting. This restaurant is exceptionally well-organized.

Love this restaurant! The atmosphere and decor were lovely. Our server was fun and very knowledgeable with the menu. He provided great suggestions and spaced the courses out for us. The Grilled Octopus Ramen was the show stopper but the Samon Tartar was a very close second. Can’t wait to go back again.
