Ostrea Seafood

From the atmosphere to the food and, of course, my server Samantha, everything was amazing. Highly recommend. The Mama Bear cocktail is to die for. And the scallops were delicious. A great place to dine. Super intimate, and super adorable with the oceanic theme.

Everything was great! I had the Lobster Roll and my husband had the Mushroom dish. The mixed drinks are also a highlight to go with the menu. The mixologist is willing to make any drink you're craving, so throw some ideas his way to spark the creativity and you will be quickly impressed.

Cozy, fine dining restaurant that feature variety of seafood and cocktails. Enjoyed the cosmo martini that was prepared just right. The cold 1/2 lobster was delicious along with the wonderful scallops and crispy broccoli. The buttermilk cake was truly a special treat! Portion sizes were perfect. Will definitely be back…

The highlight of the evening was the cute lobster stick on the cocktail 🤷🏽‍♀️ Oysters, tuna tartare, and octopus were all good but not amazing. Server didn’t seem too knowledgeable. Overall somewhat of a forgettable experience.

Ostrea is an absolute gem tucked in the heart of the Financial District, just steps from their sister restaurant, The London Chop House. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance strikes the perfect balance between upscale and inviting. The decor is effortlessly chic, and the vibe? Impeccable. Their wine list is nothing short of exceptional, thoughtfully curated and dangerously tempting. I’ve been four times since their opening, and each visit has been flawless. Whether you’re dropping in for a sophisticated happy hour, gathering with friends, or planning an intimate dinner for two, Ostrea delivers. The service is top-tier, warm, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the menu is refined yet approachable, with something for every palate. If you haven’t been yet, make a reservation. You’re in for a stellar experience.

Popped into this place on a Thursday. Atmosphere is upscale yet unpretentious. Good music. Good vibe. Server was attentive ands knowledgeable. I ordered the chilled grilled octopus and Cioppino. Each bit of seafood was perfectly cooked - which takes much precision and care. Local owners. So glad to have a proper seafood restaurant in Detroit.

We had the octopus, scallops, salmon, and crab rangoon raviolo, and everything was cooked to perfection.The Ahi Tuna appetizer was also excellent. Definitely one of the best seafood spots in town! Can’t wait to try the oysters next! Great service, and drinks were very well made. Beautiful restaurant!

One of the coolest spots we visited in Detroit. The atmosphere was stylish and upscale without being stuffy—just the right balance of elevated and inviting. We had a phenomenal bartender who made one of the best cocktails we've ever had, and the oysters were fresh and absolutely incredible. It’s the perfect place to grab a great drink, enjoy top-tier seafood, and hang out in a space that just feels effortlessly cool. A must-visit!

Exquisite seafood restaurant that has amazing seafood - I got all of their fish dishes like the ahi tuna, salmon and sea bass, because I was hungry and they have smaller portions, and all of them were incredible. They also have a very nice seafood chowder soup. As for dessert, their mango cheesecake (served in a small cylinder) is excellent. As is their cannoli served in the form of wafers. I also got a coffee with honey and cream. Exceptional service from a server named Nadine. Extremely cool interior decor and style with an underwater explorer theme. Also from the same owners as London Chop House next door. Definitely worth checking out if you are in Downtown Detroit!

Mixed experience: Positive: oysters and shrimp cocktail were on point. Great taste and fresh. Good cocktails. Neutral: Burrata and salmon tartar were ok. Wanted the salmon to have more flavor. Appreciate a good ceviche. Negative: Crab tempura was bread. Tempura was not light and crispy. Texture of the apples against crab did not work for me. Finally, Price to portion size. Spent 70 plus dollars, around 90 after tip. I was still hungry and ate elsewhere afterwards. Other higherend seafood places in Metro Detroit offer larger portion sizes.

Pretty expensive for the sizes... it was good just not quite worth the price imo. 5/5 atmosphere, 4/5 food, 3/5 price. Overall would give 3.5

We were very very pleased with the food, service, and ambience. . We will most certainly be back

The ambience was nice, our server was wonderful, the food was ok. The main challenge I had was the serving sizes. If you are looking for a hearty midwestern plate of food. Don't come here. Small a la carte style plates that have you constantly ordering more food, the menu was hard to understand, the wine selection was not very good, craft beers only. Less than 1 hour later, I was in the bathroom with a violent bout of diarrhea. Don't order a dirty martini. The bartender has no clue how to make them. Forgot the olive juice, no blue cheese olives, and the olives I did receive were old.

Very good dinner, amazing service, beautiful restaurant. Had the Oysters, octopus, and scallops, all were amazing.

As has already been written, the portion sizes were very small. I will say that the prices reflected the portions $30 ish versus $50 ish. The menu is limited with the only real appetizer being oysters. It was also very loud. We did enjoy our waitress and there was a nice selection of wine.
