Love it! This restaurant was recommended to me by one of the workers at the Arch. I’m glad I listened to him. The food is fantastic, the service is great! And the vibe of the atmosphere is fun and laid back. Plenty of little knickknacks to see and funny signs to read inside. If you get Dawn as a server you’re in good hands!
Stopped by on our way to the airport. We had 12:45 reservations and were seated right away. Lucky us, it was crabfest! We had the crab dip, crabby oysters, and voodoo tacos. Everything was beyond delicious! Our waitress, Becks?, was amazing and attentive even though there was a crowd. There was a great live band. Loved the outside seating. Would love to return!
Heard mixed reviews wanted to try. When we arrived, we learned the kitchen was closing, bummer, but since we were there, we ordered crab cakes and simple chicken. My crab cakes were burnt, and then you can only pay with a card, and everyone is on the same bill. In which the waitress didn't care to mention when we let her know this was our first time. I hope to have a great experience but may be an atmosphere for others. Maybe we should have gotten there earlier.
A Mixed Experience My husband and I recently dined at The Oyster Bar and had a somewhat mixed experience. We were warmly greeted by our waiter, Luke, who was not only nice but also humble, making us feel welcomed from the start. He promptly seated us on the patio, which seemed like a lovely idea at first. However, our outdoor dining experience was quickly marred by a swarm of flies that plagued our table. After a bit of time trying to enjoy the view, we decided to move inside, which turned out to be a great choice. The air-conditioned room provided a refreshing escape and took our minds off the pesky flies outside. I ordered the Gator Tacos, which were absolutely delicious—full of flavor and a fun twist on traditional tacos. My husband opted for the Chargrilled Oysters, hoping they would be reminiscent of what we enjoyed in New Orleans. Unfortunately, he found them lacking and was quite disappointed. Overall, The Oyster Bar has potential with its inviting atmosphere and delicious food, but the patio area definitely needs some attention—perhaps a thorough cleaning to help reduce the fly problem. If you're considering a visit, I’d recommend dining indoors for a more comfortable experience.
Had a fun time coming here, just got the food, didn't do the side with the band as it seemed too loud to hangout Food was great! Plenty of drink options also. We walked over from our hotel like 10 minutes away so wasn't bad, walk was a little sketchy at times though Overall chill spot with good food and drinks and entertainment if ya want
