Get ready to pay $3 dollars for ice for you bourbon. Crazy upcharge for credit card processing. Cost ¢.25 to process a card and they charged $8.54 for our whole bill on top of gratuity. Also the server only asked half our table for drinks each visit, which was once every hour.

I would give ZERO stars if I could. The fact that it was Happy Hour with $1 oysters and the bar was still empty should of been the first RED FLAG. This establishment claims to be an oyster bar, however, those were the most disgusting oysters I have ever had!!! Extremely dirty oysters. They gave ketchup with the oysters and insisted it was cocktail sauce. The bar back kept bringing us random food that was never ordered so obviously we didn't want it. The bartender was constantly confused. There was confusion by all the staff. The martinis were below average. The ambiance was nice, but I would NEVER RETURN. After a $100 tab for disgusting oysters that we did not eat I will be spreading the word not to spend your money here. The bartender saw we didn't eat the oysters and never questioned it. There are many other oyster happy hour specials in the area. I would recommend Hugo's Fish Bar or Ocean Prime. People can get VERY sick from uncleaned oysters and you're taking the risk of that at Yours Truly Oyster Bar. Will not return.

Horrible service. Was charged a fees for being a party of 6 yet we were a party of 4. They took advantage of charging people without knowledge and were unwilling to reverse the charges after discovered. Don't go here

Came here on a Friday happy hour. It was super packed but I grabbed a seat at the bar. I waited about 15m. The happy hour menu is decent. I had six oysters and two chicken tacos. They all were delish. The ambiance is cozy but nicely set up. Light music playing. It's a great spot to come hangout solo or even with friends or a date.

A really cute spot for happy hour and drinks. We loved the $1 oyster deal as well as the chicken tacos!

Everything about this place was average. No real complaints, no real standouts. Old fashioned was ok. Chicken tacos were ok. Service was ok.

Awesome happy hour and quality of oysters was great! Service is slow only because they're so busy for happy
Honestly, this might have been some of the worst service I've ever had. I actually have no idea how they stay in business. They just blatantly lie on their happy hour menu. I wanted to order one taco (in addition to the other dish I ordered) It said the tacos were $3/taco and that the tacos and that it was 1 taco per order. Yet when my tacos arrived there were two. I tried to ask the server about this but he left the table before I got a chance. After trying to flag him down for the next 15+ minutes (he walked by our table and refused to make eye contact or stop by) I finally asked him about this. I said I only ordered one taco and he said that it came with two. I clarified that I was only being charged for one taco. To which he said yes. I didn't even end up eating both tacos (did not want two to begin with...). When the bill came, I was charged for two. Again, I was not able to talk to the waiter about this and he disappeared for a substantial amount of time. After finally flagging him down again, he got extremely defensive and told me that I ordered two. When I said I didn't and that I even clarified with him, he said that I *have* to order two, that's their policy. He claimed to have informed me of this policy when I ordered (he didn't and everyone at my table confirmed. We think he might've been confused because he told someone else in my party that you had to order a minimum amount of oysters). He then suuuuuper condescendingly said, "you're arguing over $3? Fine, I'll just take it off the bill." (I'm a government employee and rarely go out to dinner, when I do, I budget heavily). When he left, the table next to us approached us and said he was also incredibly rude to them too and it's some of the worst service they've ever had. Anyway, not sure if the other people that work there are kinder but the fact that the menu is objectively incorrect is unacceptable. The lack of transparency, blatant rudeness, and mostly absent service are huge issues. I will never come back here and will warn everyone against it.

Came here yesterday for happy hour. Great specials fro 2pm-7pm! Inside is decor is really cool and modern. Had some wings, truffle fries, and oysters. Wings had a nice little coating on them and good flavor. Oysters were not the greatest. Shell was very dark gray and they were kind of dry. I was talking to my chef friend and he said they probably came frozen and half shucked already which makes sense how we got them so fast too. Definitely will be back but I'll pass on the oysters.

Overall cute intimate space that works for an after work happy hour or pre-event drinks. As their happy hour is heavily advertised this is the main draw for their space. We ordered a variety of items and while not blown away, we just keep coming back.Some items are hits (buffalo wings - big/flavorful, home fries - 10/10, oysters - small but delicious, lobster roll, espresso martinis - frozen or traditional = perfection)Some items were misses (garlic wings - grease flavor, truffle fries - no truffle flavor, chicken tacos - dry, whipped feta - gritty).What's worth mentioning is the service. They have a ton of busboys but maybe 1-2 servers tops from the 3 times I have gone there. So be prepared to have some delays in your service because they are manning the entire, albeit small, dining room space.

Went here for a nightcap after dinner and it was pretty basic.(Disclaimer: There was an event going on this night so the vibe was just what we wanted for this night.)Got a margarita that tasted mostly like margarita mix so that was disappointing. I heard semi-good things about this place so I’ll have to come back on a different day to give it a true rating when there is no event and to try the food.

Nice ambiance but that’s all this place has going for it. Came to an oyster bar for oysters, ALL OUT OF OYSTERS WHYYYY! So I just had fried chicken tacos, 4 out of 10. Ok place for drinks though. Oh let’s not talk about the 4 chips on the plate.
