Really good caesar’s , they put fresh horseradish and the flavour was great. Oysters were phenomenal and the cocktail sauce as well. I love the St Simon’s oysters so I definitely would recommend that, if you go during happy hour it’s very worth the visit. The Kale caesar was great too with the crispy chickpeas, tuna tartare was okay but good presentation, though the fries were really good with the garlic sauce. Small restaurant but the decor gives it lots of character, been twice already and will definitely be visiting again 🙂

If you’re in the Queen West area and looking for an intimate restaurant with a good selection of seafood and excellent service, Oyster Boy is definitely a great choice.

The restaurant is conveniently located near the park, with several establishments nearby.

You can get there by Streetcar, which stops in front of the park. If you’re driving, there are designated parking lots in the area and paid parking lots (which are a little harder to find).

The restaurant doesn’t have a patio, only dining room service. The patio isn’t large, so I recommend making a reservation, as it can get busy on some days, especially on weekends.

Unfortunately, the restaurant is not equipped to accommodate wheelchair users and those with other disabilities. It has a step at the entrance, a conventional door that isn’t wide enough, no accessible restrooms, and no Braille menu.

If you’re traveling with children, there are no changing tables or children’s menus.

The service is excellent, attentive, respectful, and very friendly from start to finish.

The menu offers a good variety of dishes, and I can say that they were all delicious on all our visits.

It’s definitely worth a visit.

Went with few dishes. Sun seekers for us while our friends went with east coast oysters. Great selection. Lobster bisque was a complete miss it it was subpar and salty. The other dishes were all over salty. I thought maybe it was my tastebuds but later and next day morning never stopped drinking water. We had great time but food was not as we hoped service was great. Double tip for the server as it wasn’t his fault for the kitchen double shalt evening

Not ONLY THEIR OYSTERS ARE THE BEST THEIR HOSPITALITY IS EVEN BETTER, omg even in rush hour they’ll were so calm and fun loving souls! Their food oysters are absolutely worth every penny, and their fish and chips so well cooked not oily and no weird odour ( secret they have the best coleslaws). Can’t wait to be back again.

Food was great but the front girl was kinda rude :// i told her they (Yummy Market) sells a box of caviar for $80 instead of $150 there and she looked at me rudely like i was lying or something.. idk she had an attitude. Besides that, oysters were fresh, although i paid $4/oyster but some of them were so tiny which i found not worth it for the price :// (the uni on top was my own)

Had an amazing dinner here last night! The food was amazing great flank steak and fries, and the oyster selection was phenomenal. I’m just getting into oysters but the staff was super helpful helping me navigate the options. Very friendly service I’ll 1000 percent be back!

Nice place, good food and good service. If you are into oysters, this is the place. The food was good, not many options on the menu, but the quality is good. And if you are into flank steak, it really is yummy. The only remark is that the food was a bit more salty than I could tolerate. Otherwise, it was good. And the service is really good.

If you’re an oyster lover—or even just oyster-curious—Oyster Boy is a must-visit spot in Toronto. I’ve been a few times now and each experience has been consistently excellent. The quality of the oysters here is top-notch. You can tell they take great care in sourcing fresh, flavourful selections, and the staff really knows their stuff. They’ll walk you through the different types and recommend options depending on your taste—whether you prefer something briny, buttery, or sweet.

Beyond oysters, the rest of the menu holds its own. The clam chowder is rich and comforting, and their small plates (like the scallop ceviche and crab cakes) are crafted with great attention to detail. Everything tastes like it came straight from the ocean to your plate—fresh, clean, and well-seasoned.

The vibe inside is casual but cozy. It’s not a flashy place, which I actually love. It has that “hidden gem” energy—intimate and unpretentious, with an old-school seafood bar charm. Perfect for a low-key date night, catching up with friends, or just sitting solo at the bar with a cold drink and a dozen oysters.

And here’s the kicker—they have a happy hour! This makes the experience even more enjoyable. Great oysters at a great price in a relaxed setting? Yes, please. It’s the kind of place you want to return to over and over again.

Service is also consistently friendly and knowledgeable. They’re welcoming without being pushy, and they give you space to enjoy your food and company.

Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates high-quality seafood, a chill atmosphere, and great value—especially during happy hour. Oyster Boy is one of those places that lives up to the hype.

I’ve been officially spoiled—I don’t think I can go anywhere else for oysters now. Oyster Boy is in a league of its own.
– Vibe: Beautiful atmosphere, spotless, and very well-ventilated. You feel instantly comfortable.
– Service: Lovely, friendly staff who are incredibly knowledgeable about what they’re serving.
– Experience: Everything was fresh, high-quality, and seamless.

Thank you for a wonderful meal. I’ll be back soon!

Amazing!! All the food was very fresh and service was great! We went pretty late on a Thursday night but I know they have a happy hour that I’d love to come back and try.
