The Oyster Bar

Well, it’s the place to go for Oysters. And other seafood. I enjoyed the gator hush puppies and ordered some shrimp pasta that tasted better than it actually looked.

It’s a lively place for people who enjoy the downtown “atmosphere.” If you choose to eat outside, you can be assured your experience will be memorable as hundreds of people walk by your table. It’s definitely a great place for happy hour from the specials I noticed...you can get your beer and oysters on for sure.

My experience was great! The food was fresh and prepared with love! The mimosas were deliciously flowing! Our server was amazing! The only downfall was choosing outside seating for brunch. The hostess must've wanted us to leave sooner because she kept rolling the awning back to let the sun bake everyone. She claimed it was because it couldn't be supported with the wind blowing, but there was no wind. We requested she roll it back out multiple times, but she only did it when another party was seated who requested it. If she was more polite, the experience would've been 5 stars! I will be going back though.

Would be 3.5 stars but it's not an option. Only reason it's not 4 is the bathrooms are desperately in need of some cleaning. I feel it's a strong representation of any restaurant. It's not a glorious job duty but its definitely worth the effort to give your customers a clean bathroom. The trash cans are inexpensive stainless all rusty. The vanity is caked with grime and the toilet in the one bathroom rocks when you sit on it so much I thought it was gonna tip over. I'd be very interested to see the kitchen and how thoroughly it gets cleaned.
The food was on par with most restaurants on central. I feel as though they have gotten comfortable and allowed some things to slack.
