only go here on thursdays for discounted oysters. the crab cakes are tasty and large. i personally love the busters fries and the $6 price tag reminds me of poutine but w shredded cheese instead of cheese curds. the chargrilled oysters are delicious and good price for $15 but dragos tastes better but not 2x better and a drive better. i love dipping the bread in the leftover butter w the cheese too. the atmosphere is loud not place to have convos and not kid friendly tbh but the...read full review

Buster's Place Restaurant & Oyster Bar offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with a focus on cleanliness and professional service. The staff shows compassion and attention to detail, accommodating special dietary needs. Located in downtown Covington, the restaurant is in a very walkable area, making it easy to visit. The Thursday night Charbroil oysters special is a highlight, with prices halved for a limited time. Oysters can be served raw or chargrilled on an open flame, and the charbroiled oysters are praised as possibly the best in town, with some claiming they may be the best in the world. While the oyster quality can vary, with some shell pieces present in the char-grilled option, the fried seafood, including fried pickles, is consistently good. The steak night is another dining pleasure, with steak cooked to order and a great size for the price. The Dat burger is a hearty choice, cooked to perfection with fresh onion rings. Overall, Buster's Place is a great spot for a meal, with friendly and personable service, and a comfortable atmosphere that is kid-friendly, complete with high chairs available.
