The Broadway Oyster Bar is a locally owned and operated establishment and has been for over 35 years. The Oyster Bar is widely regarded as the premier New Orleans' style restaurant, bar and music venue in the Midwest. BOB, as it is affectionately known by its many fans and friends, is housed in a building that was built in the mid 1840's and is one of the oldest buildings still in daily use within the city of St. Louis. During its colorful history, our building has had many functions including a family home, a boarding house, a Chinese laundry, a record store and a bordello to name a few. These walls have heard and seen it all. Some people feel that the building is haunted by spirits who, occasionally late at night, play good hearted jokes on the staff such as doors suddenly opening or closing or lights going on or off as if by magic. Then again, it just could be because the building is over 170 years old. However, our historic building has just gone through a renovation so we now have two outdoor patios that are covered and heated during cold or rainy weather and an expanded kitchen to better serve you. Our food has won numerous awards and readers' polls for excellence and features some of the most sustainable seafood available such as fresh Gulf and Blue Point oysters, Louisiana crawfish and shrimp, Prince Edward Island mussels, scallops and crabs. Our Cajun and Creole dishes are our versions of many of the traditional Louisiana favorites. If you love New Orleans, you will feel right at home at BOB. BOB offers live music twice a day every night of the week except on Friday when we feature one act for the evening. We present the best local and national touring acts representing a variety of musical genres such as rock, reggae, bluegrass, blues, funk, R&B, roots, and jam, and weshowcase a wide variety of bands visiting from New Orleans. The live music is free up to 8 times per a week. However, for some of the more popular and well known acts, we do charge a cover which typically goes to the bands in order to keep attracting them to the BOB. Broadway Oyster Bar has been referred to by many as a staple of St. Louis and was recently honored by the St. Louis Chapter of the Missouri Restaurant Association as the 2015 Restaurant of the Year. BOB is a great choice for a relaxing dinner, a celebratory party or an opportunity to dance to a great band. As well known food writer, the late Joe Pollack, once wrote, "There is, quite simply, nothing in St. Louis quite like the Broadway Oyster Bar". That line was written over 30 years ago, but it is as true today as it was then. Welcome to the Broadway Oyster Bar Family.

    A fine dining experience as usual. The short ribs and the filet were perfectly prepared and delicious. Great service (almost too fast the night we were there). It's a wee pricey but if you don't eat out often, it's worth it.

    We had a wonderful Valentine’s Day date at Idol Wolf. The ambiance was wonderful. Modern and elegant, fun without being too noisy, and the service was so attentive. The food was amazing too. Serrano ham and Chicken of the Woods tapas, and a tasty and beautiful paella as our main course. Big props for having a good NA beverage selection as well!

    Wow, I wish I could give this place 10 stars. My boyfriend and I were visiting St. Louis for the weekend and we were recommended to come here. To say we loved it feels like an understatement. I had asked to be seated in a quieter section and they happily accommodated. The ambience was perfection: jazz and dim lighting…music wasn’t too loud. Our server Zach, gave us great menu recommendations. We ordered the French onion soup to share as our appetizer and it was incredible. We got the chicken dish and braised beef…absolutely phenomenal. For dessert, we had a hard time deciding between the chocolate mousse and the cream puffs. The kitchen gifted us the cream puffs (absolute angels). Also, the espresso martini was the best I’ve ever had. Overall, 11/10 experience. I’ll be dreaming of the desert for a while. Thank you to the kind hostess and server and staff who all made us feel so special and taken care of!
