    We went early on a busy Saturday night and glad we made reservations! We both wanted a light dinner so we had chowder and Caesar salad. The chowder was great, the salad was good but not remarkable. Service was adequate considering how busy they were. We’ll certainly try it again when we’re a little more hungry!

    Had reservation. Was seated in the bar area. Seems service for the bar area is secondary to the main room. We ordered drinks and then had to get them ourselves from the bartender. we ordered a dozen oysters and a few had a lot of shell in them, poor shucking. ordered a cup of clam chowder and got a bowl instead. food came and my main course did not show up. She ordered the combo pan roast and it had 3 mushy oysters 3 small shrimp and random small bits of seafood. my main course was late. took a long time to get water and cocktail refills. was looking forward to having a nice meal at the oyster bar but ended up disapointed.

    Our waitress welcomed us to the Oyster Bar with a smile. She was very friendly and courteous too! Loved the service! Thanks to our chefs and waitress for getting our food out so quickly! It was still hot and delicious, too!

    I ordered the fisherman sampler. The fish was fine but the breading on the shrimps made them tasteless. The calamari was a rubbery slab also coated in too much breading.
