Pearl Oyster Bar is your go-to spot for a classic seaside experience, serving up a legendary lobster roll that’s packed with fresh lobster and paired with crispy fries.
"Perle Wine Bar, from the team behind neighboring restaurant Marian’s, opened this week. The 12-seat wine bar, with a bottle list led by Marian’s somm Lacey Rozinsky, is intended to complement crudo with yuzu kosho, pickled strawberry and rhubarb and fresh wasabi and Korean pear, plus oysters with grapefruit chile sorbet on the side." - Emma Orlow
"Village mainstay Pearl Oyster Bar is out after 25 years, owner Rebecca Charles announced in an Instagram post last month. The popular seafood restaurant, famed for its lobster roll, bowls of clam chowder, and legendary bouillabaisse, attributed the closure to the rising costs of running a business during the pandemic. “Independent restaurants, with the current dynamics, are getting to be a thing of the past,” Charles writes." - Luke Fortney
"COVID-19 update: Temporarily closed. While this may be the oyster bar that started the casual seaside dining trend in the city, it hasn’t been overshadowed by its younger competitors. It remains a firm favorite, and we come back time and again for the seaside shack fare which they do so well, including oysters, of course, and huge, mayo-laden lobster rolls. Their hot fudge sundae is pretty insane, too. COVID-19 disclaimer: We are working hard to keep our listings as up to date as possible (deliveries, outdoor dining, etc.), but given the evolving nature of local COVID-19 restrictions, we recommend double-checking the information in this guide with any business you plan on visiting.
