Nestled in the lively Knox-Henderson neighborhood, Green Point Seafood & Oyster Bar serves up a delicious mix of fresh Gulf and East Coast seafood in a charmingly vibrant setting, perfect for casual hangouts or romantic outings.
"A seafood-forward brunch can look like a luscious lobster roll, a plate of shrimp and grits, or an order of fish tacos — and should certainly include a dozen oysters. Get all of that and more at Green Point, in one of the city’s most comforting and stylish bistros. This is a see-and-be-seen spot, so don’t come in your pajama pants. Knox-Henderson is busy, busy, busy on weekends, so we recommend parking in the underground lot at Weir’s Furniture. It’s free and less painful than the above ground lot across the street." - Courtney E. Smith
"Some dates call for quiet corners. Green Point doesn't have any of those, with a high-energy hum perfect for knocking back drinks and laughing a little too hard at your own jokes. Take the edge off any date-induced jitters with the savory Green Point Martini. It’s made with vodka and vermouth that’s been infused with oyster brine, herbs, and lemon zest, and it pairs perfectly with the seafood tower’s chilled oysters, jumbo shrimp, and crab claws. You could stop there, but we’ve yet to meet a situation that beer battered fish and chips can’t improve." - Kevin Gray
"Go big or go home with the seafood salad at this Knox Ave. spot. It’s truly got everything: chilled gulf shrimp, jumbo lump crab, and iceberg wedge, heirloom tomato, hearts of palm, and Thousand Island dressing (so retro). It’s that high and low mix that keeps us coming back to it." - Courtney E. Smith
"Offers clam pasta and grilled octopus, favorites of Chef Jeff Bekavac." - Courtney E. Smith
"This friendly neighborhood spot is a great stop for meeting with friends or having a casual date night. The huge wrap-around bar is a fun time, and a solid spot for ordering shared bites and cocktails. Or make it a full meal of lobster rolls, pastas, or seafood gumbo in one of the cozy booths." - Courtney E. Smith, Amy McCarthy
