Been wanting to come here for years. It’s an intimate atmosphere, but comfortable and casual. The service is top notch: it was my birthday and not having a great night, yet so above expectations my fab hostess (whose name I can’t remember, sadly) brought me an emergency shot, and made great recommendations… and my day. Seriously thank you. Also, oysters were rustic and tasty, and the po’boys are top notch, frankly some of best I’ve had outside of NOLA. Sides were very southern solid as well, I went red beans and rice as well as split a side of fries; just beware of the hot sauces on the table, they can over season your gumbo real quick. Ooh the beer: the IPA they were brewing is awesome and really compliments the food. My other half enjoyed the the Step Papa. A Real West AVL gem. Shhh. and steps from Potential New Boyfriend, which is also cool… but another review.

Awesome spot to relax and enjoy a great dinner—or just drinks. We decided to share a few dishes, and even then, it was more than enough food! The raw oysters were fresh, delicious, and perfectly shucked. The mac ‘n’ cheese was creamy and cheesy—just the way it should be. The fried oysters and shrimp basket came out hot and crispy, cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly and attentive, working hard to make sure everyone was well taken care of. Definitely a place worth coming back to!

The meal was absolutely delicious. The service was bland. Something to be said about being warm, welcoming, and comfortably interactive. It wasn’t horrible service by any means, just disappointing when you get excited for a restaurant but between you and the staff you’re the only one excited ♂️

Perfect low key spot for delicious seafood.
Oysters were gone before pics. Fried catfish po’boy, gumbo, and grilled trout over asparagus are phenomenal.
Perfectly mixed cocktails and some pretty good beer.
Prices are fair, portions are generous, and staff is attentive.

Hemingway quotes: As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.
Yup! Except we enjoyed a cold draft and fries to accompany our oysters.
The dozen oysters on the menu vary by location. Yarah selected what she felt were the best of the best! 2 selections from Massachusetts and one other…. I’ll remember.. all varied in flavor and salinity, all OUTSTANDING
I’m gobsmacked. This neighborhood pub has outstanding oysters, and the service makes you feel like family! Thanks Oyster House!

Best restaurant in town! We frequent oyster house and it’s always exactly what we are looking for. My favorite items: oysters (of course), the peel and eat shrimp, and the fish and chips. But you can’t go wrong, it’s all amazing.

Food is amazing, love it so much, but service was poorly, she have to handle the whole restaurant herself on Wednesday night, she did not check on us how’s the food taste like which is ok, but she did not offer me a plate for my sauce that’s I think it’s just really unacceptable. Again food is amazing really
