This place was so good, we sit out on the deck and had a dozen raw oysters and they were delicious, we shared the grilled Maui Maui and it also was delicious.We would definitely go back the view was great and the service was very good.PJV

Great renovated and full of energy place, except that you have to wait 1-2 hours… on a 90 degree day in Florida that’s a bit too much. We had fun but was it worth waiting that long? Maybe we’ll try another day again.

We walked in for dinner despite a really busy Friday night. They told us it would be an hour plus. Reserved to the bar we had cocktails which were very good and quickly presented. Ten minutes later we were seated in the far corner of the inside dining. Service was busy at this time so be prepared for a leisurely meal. Momma T took care of us and did a great job as well as being super friendly. She reminded me a little of my grandmother but a much younger version. We skipped appetizers and went for the mahi salad and oysters rockefeller. Our friends had side salads, fried snapper and sautéed crab claws. The best dish by far was the sautéed crab claws in a butter, heavy cream sauce. Just a hit of crystal made them the best Ive ever had.-1 Mgmt should maybe consider sound suppression tiles in the dining area. Really noisy at times.We will definitely be going back on our next trip.Urban CowgillJune 2022

After waiting for a first available table, we were seated outside around the back. Our server came by and took our alcohol order. Some 15 minutes later she came and told us the bar had only filled the glasses half way and was waiting for the bartender to go in the cooler and get more wine. Then the glasses she presented were not correct as to what we had ordered. Very slow for salad and then almost 40 minutes later our entrees came. No silverware for me. Wrong sauces for our seafood and a tiny cup of sour cream. We requested the correct items and more sour cream. It finally came. She continued to walk past us without checking back. Finally at the end of our meal we ordered a to go piece of the key lime pie. We had to request our check after she dropped that off. It was wrong as she had left the erroneous wine charges on there and shame on us for not seeing the check first. We are currently waiting for our corrected credit card slip. Sadly the outstanding seafood was over shadowed by the server named Sherry who could only manage to try her best. We’ll be back but request not to be seated in the back “I’ll do my best” section. Too costly of a meal for such poor service.

Went with the family for an early dinner and it was great. The portions were a good size and tasty. The wife had the red snapper and the kiddo had shrimp Alfredo. The service was good and the location was great. I would definitely add it to the list of places to eat when we come back.

First time. Service and food was excellent! We had ribeye which was perfectly cooked and fried shrimp. Try the key lime pie! We will be back.

Had a fantastic dining experience here, today. The waitress was amazing. I just had Chicken tenders but they were breaded, seasoned and cooked to perfection. They were even quite moist. My wife had coconut shrimp with green beans and a loaded baked potato. Of course I had to sample it all. Excellent!! Breaded pudding with bourbon sauce for desert. If they had had an Amber beer it would been even better.

Well, we eat here usually a dozen times a year and the food is very good. Tonight, the flounder was mediocre and the red snapper was so dry and over cooked you couldn’t cut it with a fork ! The server Mason was excellent but the manager Jamie has a lot to learn in customer service! Charged half the meal cost so paid $15 for a side salad and baked potato. Just extremely disappointed!

I held my Navy Retirement dinner at the Oyster Bar and it was OUTSTANDING! We had over 40 people attend the dinner and everything from the service to the food was amazing. The manager Leslie took care of us and provided exceptional service for our party. If I could give the Oyster Bar 10 stars I would! From the amazing views, ambiance, food, and service, you can’t go wrong with the Oyster Bar! This is a must visit!

Ate here on our last night in Perdido Key and enjoyed a good meal with a great view of the harbor. I had saw a menu online which had a great sounding shrimp and andouille creole dish which sounded great. However, the waitress stated that that was no longer a menu item so switched to the fried flounder. Also ordered an appetizer of the royal reds while wife ordered grilled shrimp. My reds were good but had to devein each. My flounder was huge and really tasty. I did not care much for the green beans but all in all it was a very good plate of food. My wife said her grilled shrimp was good as well. Would recommend this place if not only for the view, but the food is good as well.
