Horrible Teeny Tiny LOUSY CLAM Chowder from Shuckers Oyster Bar WASTED OVER $17 & Hardly any clams & so little AND AT THAT Price wasn't offered bread. Asked & got 2 slices. Asked for butter. Told NO. Other people said they have a great herb butter. All You Need is Love pizza gave us free butter, prior to us ordering their delicious pizza. DO EAT @ ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE Pizza & Vietnamese BANH MI & Roll Factory. Starbucks nearby. Didn't try other restaurants.

I used to like this place to get lunch and take a meeting or two remotely upstairs, but they changed to a seating format that doesn't make much sense for eating or meeting.

I love the tacos and I haven't had the oysters at this oyster bar but I'm sure they're fantastic they look great and a lot of people seem to enjoy the place. The only problem I have with any place these days is the price of drinks oh my God. My drink was the same price as my entree. It is a good entree it's not just an appetizer really it's three big giant shrimp tacos. And my glass of wine I have with it cost the same amount almost within a dollar or two. And it's the same way everywhere though it's not just this place so all restaurants are kind of blowing me away with how much they charge for for drinks. But the tacos are excellent in the place is nice and the atmosphere is good so I don't want to take anything from them I really like the people that run the place too they're very nice people they even help me get into my car once when I locked my keys out. So super nice people super great place and I'm old and crotchety so I'm sure the prices are normal for everybody I'm just weird that way I guess. But great place super crazy you should check it out it was even on Bay Area eats out on TV and they gave it a great rating too that's why I went there and the sangria and it's just good it's good enough to be worth almost as much as the as the meal because it's the best thing I've ever had it's really different and super good. Like I said I'm just old and not used to pricing these days and all this inflation. But super great place super nice people super good atmosphere love the decorations everything about it I love.

I like this place it's pretty good I've gotten a shrimp tacos at the Oyster Bar really like the Oyster Bar. Today to me drinks are expensive everywhere anything that cost as much as your entree is a bit much I think. But other than that I think it was fantastic I really like the drinks too services really intelligent way to make a drink. Best trip tacos I've ever had keep meaning to try the other food there but I can't get past those. Super good food great service drinks are a little expensive I think other than that but they are everywhere so no point deductions

First time visiting today with some friends, great experience except the self-service draft beer taps weren't operable. Not a deal breaker, Eduardo (Eddie) behind the Oyster Bar, fixed us up with some cold beers at the counter. The Seafood Trio Sliders are fantastic! Oysters on the half shell, with Eddie's special fixings, were fresh and delicious from WA state. The Seafood Ceviche was off the hook as well! Everything was delicious, great atmosphere, and friendly staff (co-owner Krystal, manager Hailey, and Eddie behind the counter), equals an awesome day! Very appreciated! ? ? ??

Was looking for an option to secretly leave review just for the owners, but could not find an option.Sorry.Wanted to come support the new outside bar bc it's such a cute idea and I heard about the robbery ( so sad)My bf and I ordered the classic margarita ( we are big marg fans ) and at 15$ a drink I was surprised to see the male bartender not even measure anything, literally pouring what looked like a syrup jar of agave ( which it was waaaay too sweet- which is the point of measuring)Margaritas were terrible. And when you advertise as a "craft cocktail bar" it would be nice to see a little more care go into the craft of making them. I may return for a glass of wine or bubbly, but if you want a consistent good cocktail try Taco Daddy's, amazing margs and 12$. Which is where we want directly after.I understand they are new but please train your staff better and deliver a better product.
Love this place! We have lunch at Shuck It every Sunday!!! They have the best lobster rolls and shrimp tacos! The other items on the menu are just as awesome!

Went to Bentleys. Waited over an hour for a drink. Mediocre drink, no drink was the made the same twice. Older male bartender didn't care about a single customer. There was a line down the street and he took the time to text. The nachos from the oyster bar were disgusting. Overly spicy I think to try to hide the disgusting. It was opening night but first impressions count for a reason. No Bueno - Do Better

Depending on what you are getting. Cute interior and has gelato and dessert bar. Didn't try other foods - the Vietnamese place is no more than 3-stars or less. The space could be cleaner. The tables needed to be wiped down and nothing to clean your table. Dirty dishes piled up upstairs.
Sure a unique experience, great concept.
