We loved it when we visited for the first time. But for the second visit, the lobster roll got smaller so I felt a bit disappointed. Ordered fried seafood platter but got fries instead…lol. Couldn’t take a good picture with it so couldn’t leave a good review.
I got the lobster roll and the coleslaw. They were both a bit lacking in flavor, although the lobster was fine. However, they gave me a lemon wedge with a hair on it. I didn't say anything and just put it aside on a napkin. Then when they came to ask how everything was, I showed them and they said sorry but just left it there sitting in front of me. Very strange. I would just recommend taking the item from the customer and giving them a new one.
The live sea urchin was a joke. Literally empty inside for a 30 dollar scam
We ll be back

The taste was decent but the size of the sandwich was super small, about 3-4 inches for $28 regular sandwich no add-ons… avoid this place and don’t get scammed.

No raw oysters à la carte.
Tried the sea urchin and it was a bit on the disappointing side. There was no richness or flavor.
Fried oysters and rockefeller were good.
Regretted adding a 18% tip at payment. I would suggest tipping 0%. It’s kind of an unwelcoming atmosphere. Just get your food and eat away at the counter.

If you're looking for no frills high quality seafood, check out BSOC! I was capping off a milestone birthday food crawl - get the crying tiger beef at Sticky Rice first - and I needed a high protein low carb finisher.
I got the lobster roll (protein style) with an uni topper and it was delicious. Buttery, bring mixture of temperatures and textures. Loved it. Worth every penny at it's $49 bite!

Had lobster roll and hotdog with caviar. Food was great!
They dont serve water though, you have to buy the expensive “death water” in a can if you want some water (lol what)
Overall enjoy it, would come back

Before coming to LA, we looked up food places to visit in LA on YouTube. Grand Central Market was one to keep popping up. We decided to try some of shops that were open. We got there kinda late, so a few were closed already. We tried Broad Street Oyster Company as one of our meals. The Sea Urchin was highlighted, but that's out of my wheelhouse. That's an acquired taste i have not developed. Oyster Rockefeller is one of our go to favorites. The young lady who took my order was very nice and pleasant. We ordered the ½ dozen. The presentation was awesome, especially in the middle of a busy mkt. The size of the oyster were a bit underwhelming, but if they were west coast oyster. They tend to be smaller than east coast. They were good nevertheless. I did see a delightful looking bloody Mary on display. We will give them another try.

It was good. With all the hype I thought it would be better to be honest. Maybe I went on a bad day. Also, I paid $40 for some prize and a lobster roll. The water and the little bit of fries were $15. The lobster roll was small understandably since lobster is kind of expensive but still paying $40 for a very small lobster sandwich and a water bottle and fries. It’s kind of steep, especially that the role was not that great.

Stopped by this seafood stand inside Grand Central Market after seeing their bright neon sign — but unfortunately, it was a letdown.
I ordered the uni (sea urchin), and it just wasn’t fresh. The flavor was flat and lacked sweetness. They simply opened the shells, placed them on ice, and handed over a lemon wedge — that’s it. For the price they charge, it really didn’t feel worth it.
