Fabulous oysters. Really incredible creative fresh food. Perfectly prepared and presented. Lovely casual but lively atmosphere. A wonderful find!

Oysters as good as advertised, raw or fried. Soft shell crab was tasty and not heavy. Mac & cheese a little rich but very good. Ceviche was on balance good but uneven (shrimp & calamari better than whitefish). Decor is unexceptional. Front of house was friendly but wait staff seemed indifferent. A little pricey but I would go back for the food -- not the service.

Fantastically good value with spectacular choice of oysters from all over, especially good washed down with one of their excellent New Mexico bruts.

If you want phenomenal oysters and ice cold beers, this is your spot. The staff were knowledgeable about the fresh oysters and were spot on with their descriptions. Oyster po' boy is so good it'll melt your face. I'll be back, for sure.

Oyster selection very good, and variety. Fries are fantastic, Po Boy is to die for, perfect slaw and fried oysters not sandy but fleshy and crunchy and not oily! Crab Sandwich is quite small but the bread toasty buttery and crunchy bread delicious and worth the $13. Lobster Bisque I tried once and it was a little too salty for me but people with me loved it. Mac and Cheese simple and tasty. One of my favorite places in King St!
