Dylan's Oyster Cellar

My absolute favorite restaurant in Baltimore! Despite growing up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland eating Chesapeake Bay oysters out of the half shell since I was 3, I didn’t really know oysters until I went here. This was the place that made me realize oysters can vary greatly in flavor. Depending on the day, you can choose from oysters from Maine, New Brunswick, Washington state, Prince Edward Island, and, of course, Maryland and Virginia. Everything on the menu is to die for, and the atmosphere is chill, cozy, and welcoming. No pretentiousness accompanying the high-quality food. Don’t eat seafood? No problem! The burger is the best burger in Baltimore — a mouthwatering smash burger that’s always on the menu. The coddie, a Baltimore tradition, is a must-try. Get the Stern Fern for a cocktail. All the fish are delicious too. I prefer to get there when they open at 5 and snag a seat at the bar.

Great Neighborhood Oyster House situated on a Corner in Hampden .The Food , Service and atmosphere are all so , so good ! They have one of THE best Burgers in town . It’s flavorful , moist ..simply delish .

Called for a last minute stop as we were driving by town. Got a table outdoors, which was nice for a summer evening. Lovely staff, great array of raw oysters. Soft shell crab sandwich was excellent, as was the white fish pate. Great neighborhood gem.

Good food and drinks - pricey. And you’ll read about an oyster happy hour which is no longer the case. In fact, the waitress answered me like I was a lunatic for asking about it while sitting at the bar.

Amazing service, amazing oysters, unique menu, and great atmosphere. We will be back on our next visit. Highly recommend!

Dylan’s oyster cellar is an industrial, small restaurant built into the bones of a townhouse. We tried a good chunk of their menu at the bar, including all the oysters, a few drinks, potato skins, Anchovy on baguette , and finally the Pistachio cake. Everything was delicious, our only critique would be that the cake needed more of the sauce. Service was good too, but it is very busy, try to get a reservation if you can. It’s also very loud, so make sure you’re good with that too.

Shocked at the experience. After hearing mostly positive things we were excited to visit. Service was fine once we got seated, the older hostess seems to really dislike people and doesn't feel embarrassed to act as such. Our server was delightful, and took very good care of us, they were were the only part of the night that was decent. Raw oysters took very long to arrive, apparently that's the norm at this location, a little odd, but sure. The drinks came out quickly, nothing remarkable, higher price for medium quality and shorter pours. They offer non-alcoholic drinks that are interesting, but they are priced very high, especially considering this is a "casual" location. The atmosphere was confusing, we felt very over dressed and the general vibe was loud and over packed and felt like a tin of sardines. Almost no space between tables and felt very chaotic. Waiting so long for oysters our server got our order together efficiently, and we were excited! Then we were surprisingly underwhelmed by the food. Over cooked fish, with a burnt flavour, the burger had black grease on the bun & was over done and salty, the fries were salty and mostly the broken pieces. Our sever offered apologies and tried to remedy the situation. But, after waiting for long for raw oysters,and receiving such low quality food, we felt we had better settle up. Not the experience we hoped for, maybe it was just a bad night? Some attention to details would greatly improve any issues we had,especially speed and quality control. Also, finding hosting staff that is not rude and standoffish. The servers were wonderful, so we know they can hire good people. We will give visit a different time. Hopefully this was a fluke.

I absolutely love Dylan’s. it’s small and personable. The bartenders, the waitresses, the waiters, the owner and overall staff are just great. The food is always always good even if it’s something totally different that I would never tried before. Everything is so fresh. I got cream of mushroom soup. Oh my God amazing. However, the menu changes often. The main dishes are usually the butter rainbow trout fish, the burger, collard greens, and a few other items but they will put new items on the menu often The desserts are made by my girl that shucks the oysters and they are delicious 🤤. I mean have you ever heard of that. So awesome Lol!! Just go!!!!! oh and be sure to get a cocktail…. DELICIOUS!!!!!! 😋

I've been to Dylan's twice now and I've got to say, I'm officially a fan. The first time was a quick stop in after a walk in Wyman Park. We got half a dozen oysters, the potato skins, and the cava during happy hour. The second time, I came in for a quick dinner and got another half dozen oysters, a caesar salad, and the potato skins. The potato skins are absolutely delicious and come with a sour cream and horseradish sauce. Very reminiscent of the Prime Rib's - iykyk. The caesar salad was generously dressed and they accommodated my request for no croutons. The oysters were delicious both times but I especially enjoyed my selection on the second time. Nice and small, light brine, with a little bit of sweetness. You can even watch them shuck them right there in front of you at their beautiful wrap around bar. The prices are fairly reasonable too ranging from $15-$25 for half a dozen depending on the specific selection. This last time the bartender was nice enough to give me a sample of their signature dirty martini. He said it had been on the menu since they started as a pop up and it's so popular it's never left. I can see why - it's made with celery bitters which was really delicious and well balanced. I'd definitely return for more oysters and get that martini next time.

The burgers and oysters are unbelievably delicious and quite possibly mouth watering. Great service and location on The Avenue.

Yes! I've been twice. Tried the same dishes twice because after my first visit I had to come back and try the exact same thing. I'll go back and try others. But on both visits I tried: The Coddie (cod fish cake with saltine and mustard sauce). Tasty but salty. I thought on my first visit it was too salty so I wanted to try it again. Second visit, too salty. Roasted oysters - 10 stars Kale salad - 10 stars. That maple miso dressing is something special Whole Sea Bream - 10 stars (similar to snapper I think). Love the ginger carrot puree. I started making some at home to accompany my dishes after my second visit. It's so good! Ham hock collard greens - 10 stars, too good. Cocktails: can't remember the name but it was bourbon based. 10 stars This is now one of my favorite places. Service is okay. 4 stars over all because of the noise level. I've been on a random Tuesday and a Saturday. Just as loud.

Came here on a Friday night - was able to make a somewhat last minute reservation and sat outside because it was a beautiful night. Very nice ambience in Hampden! Food was very very good. We got the roasted oysters - could have just had them all night, so good. The local salad (which I forgot to snap a photo of) was very good, albeit on the small side, especially for 2 to share. Both fish dishes we had - arctic char and rainbow trout - were delicious. Trout's so simple with browned butter, but what's better than browned butter? shishitos were in a very nice sauce. All to say a very nice meal - highly recommend!

I attended an event at St. Luke's church across from this restaurant. My sis & I decided that after the event we were going to take a stroll and then find a place to eat. We circled the block and even w/ all of the available options, we ended up at Dylan's Oyster Cellar and I am so happy that we did! The lighting was dim the chatter was kept to a minimum, but you could tell that people were enjoying themselves cause you could hear laughter in the background. We were sat at a cozy booth, where we reviewed the menu and were provided glasses of water. Shortly after, our gentleman waiter greeted us. He answered a few questions and we decided on one of the house tap beers, one of the zero alcohol beverages, two orders of the oysters and the Coddie, with a side of french fries. Everything was delicious and came out plated nicely. The Coddie is served as 1 codfish cake but it is tennis ball size. I'm not a big codfish person but that cake was delicious! And the mustard sauce & crackers provided were a great compliment to the dish! Despite the portion of 1 we were still able to share and it was so delicious that we wanted to order another but unfortunately couldn't because we arrived near closing time. The oysters that were recommended to us were fresh, succulent, and flavorful, and did exactly what we needed them to do. The fries, (which I suspect might be Boardwalk fries... YUM!), were fried perfectly, and went well with the cold ketchup on the side. Free street parking available as well as paid parking which appears to be about $.50 an hour with a 4 hour max. We were also given a complimentary postcard for the business with the delivery of our check. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I truly enjoyed my experience at Dylan's Oyster Cellar and plan to return.

I had never been to this Hampden gem until recently. We came right when they opened on a Friday night and things were already quite lively! They were able to seat us thanks in part to a cancellation. First let me tell you about the staff. The hostess was great and got us into a table right away. Our server was very attentive and helpful in steering us towards drinks and dishes that we ended up loving. But they also had bussers and bartenders that really made this place stand out to me as far as excellent service goes! Dishes were cleared right away, our waters were constantly being filled. When our drinks were running low, the bartender would come out and offer to take our order. I felt so well taken care of. And the food! The roasted oysters were the best thing that I have eaten recently! We ended up ordering a second plate of them because they were so good. It's super cozy in there, so whether you are on a date or a girls night out, or enjoying a great meal solo, Dylan's is fantastic and I can't wait to go back.

Came here from out-of-town with an old schoolmate who works in the industry and knows the neighborhood well. Sat at the bar right as they opened and place was packed within 30 minutes. Snobby solo diner to our right and couple of old regulars to our left. A metaphor for the area methinks. Started off with a pickle back (my first) which for the uninitiated is a shot of pickle juice with a whiskey chaser. A+ in the category of disgusting sounding but surprisingly awesome whistle wetters. Oysters were on point with a nice selection of mostly Atlantic offerings. Nice back-and-forth with the gal on shucker duty. There was a trout dish on the main menu that appeared to be a speciality and the couple next to us claim they have the best burger around. Will be back again if I can squeeze a less rushed dining experience into my next visit.

What a fantastic place. The music is loud (not overwhelming loud though), low lit and the restaurant is crowded with folks at the tables and bar area. I was greeted by the friendly host upon walking in and saw my friend seated in the far corner and went over. We started off with cocktails - loved my Surfer Rosa. We got a dozen oysters that came at half a dozen each (Katama Bay and Sunken Meadow). We were also given 2 different extra ones (yay). The oysters were delicious and we ate them all! For my entree, I got the Butterflied Rainbow Trout while my friend got their Whole Black Sea Bass. I loved my trout. The skin was nice and crunchy and the meat was soft with a slight kick to it. Flavor was just all around superb! The staff were all friendly and atmosphere is fun. Food was top notch - highly recommend checking this place out!

What a cute spot! Came with some friends on a chilly evening. I've wanted to come here for a while and never made it to the original location. They told us that we did have to wait for a table, but there are plenty of other cute restaurants and things to see in the area, so we took a quick, but brisk stroll around. It was worth the wait though. The interior feels like chic dive bar... as in there is a hodge podge of furniture from booths to what felt like a school chair at the table where I was sitting. I think that my favorite dish was the roasted oysters! We got regular oysters too, but there is something magical about roasting them! A surprise hit was the burger... Drinks were also great here.

Checking another spot off my century old bookmarked list. After contemplating for a min on where to go for dinner, we finally settled, I mean compromised. I had forgotten that I wanted to come here and I'm glad someone mentioned it. It's a small space on the corner of the street. I loved the restaurant vibe. Right when we walked in, their ornaments on the tree were made from the oyster shells which were creative and cute. We didn't have reservations but they were able to seat us at the bar. I didn't opt for any oysters although I wished we did since it is an oyster house. We didn't really know what to get and we ended up ordering the same exact dishes as our bar neighbor. We started with the coddie app so a spreadable fried fish ball on saltines with mustard. For the mains, we got Mac and cheese and red beans and rice. At least we got one seafood item from a seafood place. All dishes were cleared, fyi. It doesn't look like an extensive menu so it's good to know they're focusing on quality over quantity. It looks like they used to have weekly specials but they no longer them which was a bummer. They do have happy hour but only on drinks and not food

We are huge fan's of Dylan's Oyster Cellar, to the point that I can confidently say it is one of my favorite places in Baltimore. The oysters and fish are always fresh and delicious and the other dishes are fun and surprisingly delicious. We've eaten here a number of times and are never disappointed! Fish and chips - great! Oysters - rotating selection, all good! Coddie - Yum! Fried croquette Cesar Salad - actually amazing! Potato skins - skip Cooked fish - rotating selection, all yum yum yum This place is great! Do not miss. Dylan's a fun guy, too, if you get to meet him.

My new favorite oyster bar in Baltimore!!!! Omg. I'm in town for a conference and I really wanted oysters so I took to yelp and found Dylan's! The reviews were great and so I thought I'd venture out. The Hamden neighborhood is hip and upon arrival I felt very at home. I had Raw Oysters, the Anchovie Toast, and the Potato Leek Soup which were all amazing!!! Henry, my bartender, was extremely knowledgeable about all types of oysters and their histories. The owner, Dylan, came out to greet everyone. I didn't know he was the owner until someone said his name. He even brought me a surprise of two different oysters to try a west coast and one from Massachusetts! I would drive from D.C. to come back to Dylan's for sure!

My favorite spot in Baltimore! Great atmosphere, consistently amazing food, and attentive service. I have been eating here regularly since it opened and always look forward to my next visit.

We went to Dylan's on a weeknight and were seated at a high table for drinks and apps. The ambience was easy going but lively with a lot of warm personality. The drinks were on the sweet side but balanced and interesting. The food, including the oysters, tasted very fresh and were well executed. Service was fast, pleasant, and very personable. We will gladly go back for drinks/apps and check out more food.

The food is always 10/10. My favorite burger in Baltimore. The food is simple and highlights the perfection of the ingredients used. Everything is local, in season, and thoughtfully prepared. Oysters always knock it out of the park, and Dylan is always hopping around making sure that everyone is having a good time.

Incredible every time. My husband got the burger which was absolutely perfect. We split the whipped ricotta and beet salad, and I got the pork belly chili lima bean plate. It was perfect!

I have got to stop sleeping on places with Oyster in the name. In my defense I dont like Oysters at all so I take it as a sign that establishments with the name of the food I dont like isnt for me. But Dylans was a great surprise. The oysters were good (I got that second hand from the boo because I wasnt having it) But everything else we ate was delicious as well. The Samshburger tasted like what a big mac wishes it tasted like. The cod fish was well done, the soft shell crab sandwich was delicious and the trout was superb. They had great drink options and really cute outside covered seating@ Dylan's Oyster Cellar isnt just for oysters guys you should definitely give them a try!

We live less than 500 feet from Dylan's Oyster Cellar, so I couldn't be more glad that we LOVE it. Even if we didn't live a one-minute walk from their front door, I would love it (but I love it just a little extra because we do). I've been to Dylan's at least four or five times now, and I've always had a great time, great food, and great drinks - every single time. Dylan's is so consistently wonderful. First, the food. I love that Dylan's menu is constantly changing - with the seasons, seasonal product, seasonally available seafood, etc. - because I've been able to try such a range of dishes. I've had a variety of starters: roasted oysters, coddie (cod cake), fish pate with house-made potato chips and crostini, house-cured sardine on buttered baguette... I've had salads: beets and ricotta, a simple green salad, a Caesar salad... I've had several main courses they've offered: fish and chips; scarlet runner beans; monkfish with sunchokes and arugula; monkfish tail with butter, capers, and green salad; whole black sea bass with an herb/espelette chimichurri; mackerel over curry rice with an herb salad... And - of course - I've had oysters! They usually have 5-8 varieties to choose from, and they offer them by the half dozen. And dessert - that Basque cheesecake!!! I've never had a bad bite of food at Dylan's. More often than not, I've had one or more dishes where I thought: "oh wow!" or "how did they do that?" or "I'm never cooking seafood at home again since Dylan's is just down the street and they can do it 1000x better than I ever will!" And then I've also had my fair share of drinks: wine, cocktails, beers. Dylan's has it all, and good options for each. The service is excellent. The owners - Dylan and Irene Salmon - are in the restaurant all the time. You can tell the restaurant is a labor of love, and it couldn't be more local! And the restaurant just feels homey and comfortable. It feels like a great European bistro or a neighborhood pub. I always feel at home when I eat at Dylan's. My only slight, tiny, insignificant qualm with Dylan's? They only take reservations over the phone, so you have to call when they're open to make a reservation (and they're only open for dinner five nights a week). It's a little more difficult to make a reservation here because they don't use any online system for reservations. And I do recommend reservations if you're trying to eat at Dylan's on a weekend night at a busy hour. We can almost always get in without a reservation since we eat a little early (we'll sometimes go around 5:30 just so we can get a table), but better safe than sorry if you're looking forward to a meal at Dylan's! So - to summarize - I LOVE DYLAN'S. Great, fresh seafood and oysters. A creative menu that is always changing. Great drinks. Great service. And you feel like you're at home. Couldn't be happier to be able to walk down the street and have dinner at Dylan's anytime we want. They might see us once a week. I'm serious.

Loved!! We will be returning for sure. Service: excellent, kind and gracious waiters and staff prepared with dining recommendations and jokes. Food: Delicious! Options for oysters included getting a half dozen for around $20 or a Shuckers Dozen (chefs choice of three oyster varieties with four oysters each) for around $40. The special today was whole black seabass with salsa verde - amazing flavors. Plenty of non seafood options including salads, burgers, soups. Ambience: a bit on the louder side, great if you prefer a vibrant dining experience. We arrived on a Thursday night and around 7 PM and we're seated immediately (2 ppl). No need to make a reservation on Thursday night but they do take reservations for busier times.

They charge you for shit they don't say they're going to charge you for. We love this place but they screwed us over on Valentine's day so do with this information what you will

Excellent oyster selection and fun, quality cocktails. The oysters are really well-shucked and come from a variety of top notch farms- ranging from Virginia to PEI. The west robins oysters from Southampton were our favorite- super flavorful and the perfect amount of brine, and a reasonable price for the quality. 10/10 recommend!

I wasn't too impressed. It was expensive hipster aloof and didn't have much of a selection of menu items. I prefer the thames oyster house to here.

One of my favorite restaurants. Small but buzzing and fun. I always get the Anchovie Toast YUM! Their fish is always delicious and perfectly cooked. And don't skip the oysters!!

We will be therefore at 6:00 Looking forward....oysters and all First time!Oysters on the Half Shell

Absolutely fantastic food. Some of the best seafood in the area. The seabass was incredibly well done, the side are excellent as well. Worth a trip if in the DMV.

Dylan's is a great location right on the Ave. Small and intimate but lively. The he oysters were really delicious and a must try. They ran out of the mussels which was disappointing but we got the whole fried fish which was good. Octopus salad and mushrooms were delicious. The beans and chorizo came out a little cold. But their cocktails were some of the best I have had in a long time! The King Kong and the martini were sooo good.

Personally I think it's the best oyster place in Baltimore. Great price for high quality oysters. Very friendly staff and relaxed ambiance.

LOVE THIS PLACE. if you're looking for amazing and fresh seafood in north Baltimore this is THE best spot. We love sitting at the bar and chatting with the bartenders and shuckers. They also have great drinks!

Dylan's Oyster cellar is a great spot if you love oysters! Their selection is always fresh and sometimes there is even a fun twist! My favorite is by far their baked oysters. While the the oysters are the star of the show ,it is definitely not everyone's thing. If you don't like oysters you may find the menu to be a bit limiting. However the burger is a 100/10 for the non oyster fans!

Dylan's is located in the trendy neighborhood of Hampden surrounded by row houses converted into small shops, boutiques, and restaurants. Fairly small establishment with tables, countertops, and booth seating. We were seated in a booth which afforded us some privacy. Service was great, our server was helpful and knowledgeable about the wine and oysters. The menu is fairly small and all entrees (plates) are ala carte. To start things off, our table went with a flight of 18 oysters of varying flavors. Since I'm not an oyster fan, I watched the others down them all in a matter of minutes. Needless to say they were delighted. Dinner was the whole bronzini, butterflied trout in butter, green chile cheeseburger, and a fried oyster sandwich. We ordered potato skins and beets for share ables. Overall the food was outstanding! Opens at 5pm, no lunch. Casual dining.

My family and I had another great dinner at Dylan's! Everything from oysters to dessert was fresh and well prepared and presented. The staff is very knowledgeable about everything they serve and how it got from the wild to the plate. We live in Hampden so I am biased in favor of hometown favorites, but this gem should be a destination for anyone in the hunt for great food!

This seafood joint is great. The food is on point, the service is good, and the atmosphere is neighborly welcoming. Their oyster menu changes frequently and it's impossible to not find a delicious morsel of shellfish on there. Get at least a half dozen. I mean, you're at a spot called Dylan's Oyster Cellar! The drink list is fun and the food here goes well with a local brew. Dishes of note: 1) Coddie Bites - saltines, mustard sauce, parsley 2) Green Chili Cheeseburger - jalapeño, top-secret sauce, iceberg, red onion 3) Blue Catfish - tartar, pepper relish, pickles, iceberg I wouldn't mind coming back especially since it's right across the street from the Charmery ice cream spot. This area is Baltimore local flavor at its finest.

Walked in with no reservations and they found seats at high top! Oysters took a little while coming out but they were delicious Ordered three drinks with my wife and they all were great! Got the hush puppies and they were great Got the Codie bite and it was delicious Ended off our night with smash burger and sea bass! Pleasant bartenders prompt service !

Obviously, Dylan has an abundance of very excellent oysters, from small to large, sweet and mild to salty. Ask the service staff for suggestions if you're not familiar with the selections. We always get the superb boneless rainbow trout. The only comparably delicious trout dish is at Le Bistro du Village, where more browned butter is used. I enjoyed the deep friend sea bream with an interesting peanut Romesco sauce; however, I thought this succulent deep water fish, served for important occasions in Japan, was a bit over-done. Two or three minutes less in the fryer would have been better. Nevertheless, Dylan's is always an excellent choice for one's dining please.

Dylan's Oyster Cellar reminds me of a neighborhood bar serving excellent seafood and craft cocktails. Not sure why the name includes the word "cellar". It's not underground! You come here for oysters and that's what we did! I don't get this Baltimore treat called the Coddie. This deep fried fish ball tasted like a McDonald's Filet-O-Fish Sandwich. You put a dab on a cracker with some mustard. But the Green Chili Burger hit the spot at the end of the evening. Who would have expected such a treat at an oyster joint!

The best and most fresh oysters I have ever had. A bit pricey but very worth it! The atmosphere was very casual and comfortable, service was excellent. Will definitely be coming back here!

Love the smaller menu. Best coddie I've ever tasted. Delicious cocktails. Super friendly service.

Best oysters I've had on the east coast, so far ;-) ! Great service, good food, great people, the food takes just a bit to come out but the wait is absolutely worth it. If you're considering making reservations but they seem to be booked up, be sure to call! I was able to get a same day reservation for 2 just by calling to check in. I'm definitely coming back here, I really miss those oysters now.

Easy seating at the bar despite being busy. Service was quick and polite. Excellent martini. The oyster selection is fantastic.

For a nice night out, Dylan's Oyster Cellar is recommended. The service and ambiance are excellent. But be prepared to spend a few dollars.

Oystersssssss!! So good!! Little pricey compared to others in the area but presentation, freshness were spot on. Service A+

Food was good BUT customer service was awful! our waiter (shorter man with a beard) was so rude. He took our ceasar salad away as I was still eating. literally had my fork in the plate trying to get a piece on my fork as he took it away. then he came up to our table and said we need to leave because the next reservation was waiting. I still had a glass of wine and we had only been at the table for a little more than an hour... our reservation was at 7:15, did not get seated until maybe 7:20/7:25 and he told us we needed to leave at 8:30.

Excellent service. Bartender was on point all night with perfect drinks. Oysters were very fresh and delicious. The vibe was perfect at the bar. Recommend you make a reservation for a table, but bar side is always fun. 10/10 would come back

We've been here several times but we had at our last visit what I consider my favorite meal of the year: fried calamari that even my son will eat, the whole fish, and both salads - one had properly prepared kale, peanuts and apple, and the other was the caesar. I want to come back for this exact meal, with my surfer rosa cocktail of course. Everything was delicious. Great server too!!

Busy neighborhood restaurant with great oysters and cocktails, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Reservations recommended.

A little chaotic, but the oysters are spot on! Fun, energetic gustatory experience, but not a quiet date night place.

I tried Dylans for the first time this past Friday with my mom friends and was blown away by their service. They have the cutest outdoor set up. Their drinks were delicious...get the Paloma...you won't be disappointed. The whole Black Sea bass was A M A Z I N G. I didn't offer five stars because I wish there were more dessert options.

TLDR: not great service but wonderful food. We came on a Saturday night, after Valentine's Day we actually called ahead to see if there was going to be a wait and the hostess recommended we give her our name and that she would reserve a table for us. We arrived and she didn't have a table "reserved" for us but there was one available. She actually said to us that she didn't/wouldn't reserve a table. I honestly was a little confused, as I saw on the website that they didn't take reservations, so the phone called threw us off. It wouldn't of been a big deal if she hadn't said it in such a demeaning tone. Just set the night off on the wrong foot. When we were sad our table I saw the side door to the building and questioned if we should've come in that door instead of the front door, and she really snapped back at me "no you went in the right door you run in the front door. " Again just clarification here so I was a little confused by the tone. Anyway our server was actually very sweet so the service turned around somewhat. We ordered 1/2 dozen oysters with three varieties that we loved! Our sever left a little slip of paper with which ones were which- always helpful! Did some some VA, MA (so Britney - YUM!) and Maryland. We then ordered the rainbow trout to share and the green Chile burger, with a kale salad and glazed sweet potatoes. The burger was VERY good, but it needed a more robust bun. It got a little wet with all the delicious toppings. Came with voodoo chips . I didn't like that there wasn't a small up charge for fries or a salad - you had to order those separately. The salad was $11 and full size, we devoured it. Massaged just enough to take out the bitterness with a great miso and peanut dressing. I loved the rainbow trout with crispy skin. The sauce was fresh - parsley and butter i believe. So good!! The disappointment was the glazed sweet potatoes, but that's probably just my taste buds that thought they were too sweet. Tread lightly if you don't like VERY sweet traditional glazed sweet potatoes. Other minor things - no oyster fork and only one spoon, we didn't get forks with our salads (had to ask) and we were sat right at the window, away from the main restaurant and on a cold night i had to keep my jacket on. Would i return? Maybe to check our happy hour. The menu was odd and we really ordered by process of elimination. I feel like we got all we'd want to order

Really great atmosphere and delicious food. The oysters are great and the mackerel I got was perfect. A little bit on the expensive side but it's worth it if you want a delicious, fresh meal!

Still just as good during pandemic times as when I first discovered this gem 3 years ago. Oysters are ALWAYS on point- and if you don't know which to choose, ask the staff! So helpful and gracious to answer any questions. I got the Catch of the Day- and wow. The fish was not only super silky and melted in my mouth (with an amazing crisp on the outside), but it was served over this delicious red pepper and garlic sauce/garnish(?) that was out of this world good with Japanese sweet potatoes as a perfect side. 100% coming again.. and again.
