Oysters all day, every day? Say less -- I'm there.
If you love seafood and you're not at Mission Street Oyster Bar, what are you even doing? This hidden gem in the Mission might be one of the best-kept secrets for oyster lovers -- and yes, their happy hour pricing on oysters is ALL DAY, EVERY DAY. Cue the confetti and cocktail sauce!
I came with a friend and we kicked things off with a dozen fresh oysters, and before we knew it, we were halfway into the rest of the menu. (Okay, maybe not everything, but it definitely felt like a full-on feast.)
Here's what we devoured:
* Oyster shooters - The perfect way to start. Spicy, tangy, and just the right kick.
* Oysters Rockefeller - Baked perfection. Rich, flavorful, and satisfying without being too heavy.
* Boston Clam Chowder - Creamy, loaded with clams, and comes in a generous bowl. Comfort food done right.
* Steamed shellfish combo - The ultimate treasure chest of mussels, clams, and shrimp. So good, we were digging in like pirates.
* Ceviche - Light, citrusy, and refreshing. A perfect contrast to all the warm dishes.
Pro tip: If the sun is out, grab a seat on the patio -- it's perfect for people-watching and soaking in that SF weather (on those rare warm days).
Parking can be a bit of a mission (pun intended) in the Mission District, so I'd recommend grabbing an Uber or Waymo if you want a hassle-free seafood experience.
The vibes are casual, the food is top-tier, and the staff is super friendly. Whether you're on a date, hanging with friends, or just in the mood to slurp your way through the day -- this is your go-to spot.
TL;DR: Affordable oysters + a seafood spread to remember + great patio = instant fave. Will 100% be back (probably weekly).
