We celebrated my husband's birthday at Oyster Boy. The owner made the dinner really special with a birthday oyster and pouring us a glass of sparkling wine. Service was great. Food was amazing. Can't remember what it is called but oysters with toppings were incredible (both types on the menu). Highly recommended!

Always a great experience and such a humble east coast ambiance. Amber is a top notch waitress and the food is always worth the trip. Can't wait to make reservations for next time.

Stopped in for a late evening snack. Loved it. Cozy. Friendly staff and good service. Good playlist. Fish chowder was excellent and my oysters were just what I wanted - small, east coast. Nicely paired with a Grüner Veltliner. Haven't been for quite a few years - don't know why but will definitely try to be back soon.

First impressions were a tad chaotic but once seated the dining experience went from strength to strength. We come for the oysters and they were impeccable. Good fresh ingredients speak for themselves and this place is a must for any seafood lover.

The seafood tower was amazing! Lobster was fresh, meaty and sweet. Among other food, we also enjoyed five oyster varieties as well as the cheese baked oysters. Overall a pleasant seafood dinner.

The Oyster selection at this place is exceptional. The staff members are pleasant and friendly, although it's important to be proactive in seeking their service. The Lobster biscuits have a delightful touch, but they could enhance the amount of lobster and reduce the salt a bit for absolute perfection. The taco shells are slightly undercooked and tough, but the overall taste is enjoyable. The restaurant's decor is tastefully done, and even the restroom reflects the attention to detail. It's a delightful spot to visit for oysters, and it's no surprise that it has stood the test of time. Will I return, I would say it's definitely maybe!

We came here on a weekday, and it was quiet. Between the two of us, we ordered the oysters Rockefeller (6), lobster bisque, lobster mac and cheese, and fried oysters.The app took 30 minutes to come due to several take-out orders, and the server gave us fries to compensate. The Rockefeller oysters have caramelized fennel, wilted spinach, mornay sauce, parm, and cajun gremolata. It was on the saltier side and extra buttery. My preference is to get fresh oysters.The lobster bisque had good flavour and some lobster pieces, but it needed to be creamier.The lobster mac and cheese was the star of our meal. So cheesy, with enough lobster pieces, and the pasta was perfectly cooked.The fries were crispy and on the meatier side.Overall, service was 5/5 - we appreciate the free fries gesture for the delayed service. There was a non-alcoholic mojito for those doing Dry January or want a non-alcoholic option.Accessibility: the door is not automatic, the stools are high, and the floor is slippery for crutches.

They have a very nice selection of oysters, which were fresh and juicy. The grilled squid was amazing and so were the steamed clams. Since the restaurant is small and doesn't take online reservations, call and leave a message to reserve your place. It's worth it !!

Overall, the food is great, but the dining experience was disappointing. There was a waitress who claimed that she was not a waitress at the bar with super annoying and huge laughing sounds, which interrupted the customer's conversation each time she laughed. Some tables even pause the conversation and stare at her. Apparently, she doesn't have any self-awareness. Enthusiastic service is one thing, but i believe this is not how you show hospitality. Thumbs down.

The place is one the tastiest I've ever been to. We had our ladies Galentine there set menu - you just can't go wrong with it. Oysters were heavenly, prawns and seabass literally just melt in your mouth. Ofc it was all accompanied by several bottles of prosecco - which made our night even better. Highly recommend!
