Little Pearl Oyster Bar is a shining pearl in the culinary landscape of Boise, and my recent visit left me absolutely enchanted. Nestled in the heart of downtown, this establishment is more than just a dining spot - it's an experience crafted to perfection. From the moment I stepped through the door on that lovely spring afternoon, I knew I was in for something special. Fortunately, I snagged a seat on the patio, where I was treated to stunning aesthetics that set the stage for a perfect date. The interior, expertly decorated, effortlessly transformed the evening into an upscale New England dining affair. Let's talk drinks. The menu is a masterpiece in itself, boasting a phenomenal selection of unique concoctions. I opted for the Norwegian, a delightful blend of Reyna Vodka, St. Germain, Lilt, fresh lemon juice, and muddled strawberry. The drink, much like the atmosphere, was designed to perfection, garnished with a strawberry and a toothpick bearing a "little pearl" skewered through it - a charming nod to the establishment's name. As an oyster aficionado, I was delighted by the array of options available. My partner and I indulged in four dozen oysters from various regions, guided by our knowledgeable servers who provided insights into each one's distinct taste and texture. Not only were the oysters delicious, but they were also surprisingly affordable, adding to the overall delight of the experience. And let's not forget the Kirin Japanese pilsner on tap - a rare find that further elevated our evening. In summary, Little Pearl Oyster Bar exceeded my expectations in every way possible. From the exquisite ambiance to the impeccable service and delectable fare, it's a place I'll undoubtedly return to for many romantic evenings to come. If you're in search of a memorable dining experience that combines elegance with exceptional flavors, look no further than Little Pearl Oyster Bar.

Had a great experience at this little gem of a place in downtown Boise. Service was very good. Not typically a fan of oysters, but my daughter loves to come here so I stepped outside my comfort zone and gave them a try. Had a fun time trying a variety of oysters!

Let us start off with how amazing our server Dana was. She was helpful and her suggestions were off the hook. We appreciated her personality and how outgoing she is. Everyone was so awesome! The food is seriously delicious! We had the Lobster Roll with salad, the lemon dressing is to die for. The burger was the “Best I’ve had in Years” words of my Chef husband.This was our Anniversary dinner and we got surprised with a complimentary desert ? Yum! I recommend this place also for the quality and freshness of the OYSTERS! Freakin yum!Thank you LPOB! We will be back!

We came here for the first time for our anniversary and it was the best dining experience we’ve had in Boise. The food and drink menu was phenomenal. But what really made it even better was the service. Our server, Jordan, was truly incredible. He was clearly happy to be there, enjoyed his job, and enjoyed his guests. He helped recommend everything we ordered and was spot on. Everyone was so kind. We can’t wait to come back!

This place is so cute, and the setup inside and outside is a really nice vibe. I tried two of the British Columbia oysters, which were delicious! I also got the Brussels Caesar, which was full of flavor and yummy. This is a great little date spot on a warm summer night right in the heart of downtown. The service was also so friendly. Everyone was welcoming and accommodating, and the chef even gave me four for the price of two on the oysters. Lovely time out.

Cute little oyster spot in downtown Boise - the food was great and the waitress was delightful. They seemed possibly understaffed so we waited a long time to get drinks and then a long lag time for everything after. Not a problem since we were there celebrating and wanting to spend time talking, but possibly something to keep in mind if you're short on time.

Babe and I stopped in for drinks after a long work week. We were seated and served immediately. We sat at the bar. It was quiet and perfect for unwinding. Our bartender was friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back and enjoy some food. Cheers ?
