Ruben and Ozzy's Oyster Bar & Grill

Great date night suggestion - eat at the counter bar inside Ruben and Ozzy’s. Absolutely love watching the chefs at their craft! The food is excellent. Every time we’ve dined here we’ve gone with the chef’s suggestion and have not been disappointed. Their seafood is so fresh. Portions are generous.

Last night, we had the poke appetizer which was hands down some of the freshest tuna ever. For an entree we shared a halibut dish with shrimp and scallops in a wine caper sauce with a slight Cajun flair. Sooo good. And we still have some leftovers (I think we’ll have a lunch fight over those today). For dessert we had their home made mud pie. Such an under rated dessert. It was really yummy.

Sorry - no photos. We were too busy enjoying our food and the atmosphere to take pics.

I recommend this place anytime, but especially love it on a week night when it’s a bit slower and chefs can chat and make recommendations. The counter is great for couples or solo dining. The patio is wonderful on a nice night too.

Nasty oysters and clams equally as bad. Avoid unless getting something fried.

The food here is decent but the employees are not very friendly. You will get a smile and profuse thanks when you're handed your check. The rest of the time, you'll be treated like a person with leprosy.

If you do not come to this place while in Palm Springs, California, you are missing out! Not only is the food amazing and served hot and fresh in front of you, the owner Ozzy makes it even more special. Definitely sit at the bar and watch his Masterpiece’s come to life! We had the New Orleans oysters, Ozzie, and Reuben specials. Everything was absolutely amazing! We even bought T-shirts because we loved it that much 😁

I've always wanted to visit this oyster bar when visiting PS and this time I finally did. I specifically went to try their oysters and wasn't disappointed. They were fresh, meaty, and a perfect snack to have on their patio. They were well chucked with no shell fragments in the meat. Lemons were fresh. Oyster shooters looked delicious too. Service at the table was basic. Would love to come again for oysters and to try other menu items. For a person or two, the bar may be more comfortable.

Met Ruben and Ozzy, the brothers who own the place. So friendly and fun and what a cook Ozzy was for our meals. Fun to watch cooking from the bar and taste the results.
Bar staff, wait staff, and the brothers are so nice. On a two week vacation and already visited twice !

Good service!!!! The Ruben special and the Luis Specials were delicious!!!!!!!!

Baked Louisiana Oysters were good!!!
Seafood stuffed mushrooms were disappointing, had a lot of mustard on it which just didn’t work for us. But overall good experience

This was one of the best meals we ever had. Everything was fantastic and Ozzie was so nice. He made to order for my wife’s gluten allergy. We were visiting and wish we lived here for the food!

Food is so good! Atmosphere is lively & fun but not rowdy. Outside eating is nice but inside & watching them cook is cool too. Highly recommend . (Stuff drinks too)
