Oyster Rock never disappoints ! The food and service are wonderful. There’s no place like it in the area. It’s my first choice for seafood when we are in town.

As expected, it was very busy New Year's Eve. However, we felt very rushed and there was a mix-up in the order of courses. The manager did discuss our concern and gave a credit for an appetizer. We've dined here many times and have enjoyed the food and the view. I guess the answer is to avoid major holidays. The Oyster Pit had beautiful decorations, and the fire pit is not to be missed.

We know Oyster Rock’s excellent food and service will be worth the 50 minute drive. We love Oyster Rock! My favorite dish is the House Salad with citrus vinaigrette. Last night I enjoyed the mahi mahi with pineapple salsa. I couldn’t decide on my side so I asked our server for a recommendation. Au gratin potatoes for the win! Delicious meal!
