This spot is awesome! Fair rates, large portions and the staff are regularly very kind.

We came for lunch this past Wednesday to take advantage of their Dine Out Boston lunch special. 3 courses for $20. Inside the restaurant was very nice, lots of light and very clean. Our waiter was very attentive and personable. We started with mojitos, they were very tasty. I had the calamari starter, shrimp scampi for lunch and the Almond Joy dessert. My husband had the lamb meatball starter, coconut curry lunch and the same dessert. All of the food was fantastic!! It came out in a timely fashion, you didn’t feel rushed or were left waiting for your plates to be cleared for the next course. I would highly recommend coming here to eat, we will be back. They have buck a shuck from 4-6 too so that will be a must!

So thrilled that Chef Parsons has opened this primarily seafood restaurant. I want to try every dish on his menu. We had a wonderful pre theater dinner last night and I guess I should be raving about how great Matthew Broderick and SJP were in the show but I can’t stop talking about how great dinner was !

We had a great birthday dinner last night. The salmon entree was delicious!

It was fine but nothing special. Standard theater district raw bar restaurant. Though I sat for maybe 20 min before my server came over, grrr. Fish tacos were pretty bland. Crab cake was good. Blue cheese vodka in a house martini was a nice touch.

What a wonderful, dynamic, dining experience! I would recommend anyone to dine at the oyster club. I went with a group of friends after a long day of work and was excited to try this place out for the first time. Kind and attentive servers started us off with some complementary blue fish pate - delicious. After I had the burrata salad and the monk fish special. Both items were exquisite! Finished off with the taza chocolate brownie. We all left content and so satisfied. This is my new go to spot after work. Complements to the chef and awesome staff!

Nice people, best cocktails we've had in Boston (Old Fashioned and the Blue Winged Olive). I had the steamed mussels and they were incredible (better than anything I've had in Brussels). Don't miss this place, you won't be disappointed.

We stopped in for a couple drinks and 1/2 dozen oysters. The oysters were great, a nice selection of wines and cocktails. We haven't had dinner here, but it was nice for oysters and cocktails!

Okay so today is Valentines Day, was planning on just staying at home and avoiding the crowds. Decided not to cook and to go out and only thing available were very early reservations so my wife and I decide let's try a very early dinner and then catch a movie. So we live near the Oyster Club, it is somewhat new so we checked the reviews to some disappointment and considered not going but had few options given the special day. Well to our pleasent surprise, it was wonderful and we eat out often and everywhere and know a good experience when we have one. I sometimes am critical with some of my reviews but this place deserves more praise. We started with the $ oysters and ordered a dozen and they were awesome, fresh and many options as the $ specials were not available given the Valentine special menu. But they said, no problem which ones would you like. So given today was Valentines Day we were able to chose from the normal menu and order some items from the Valentines menu ala cart. We both started with a salad and I had the toasted Romaine and my wife had the Burata salad and we loved them both. We had the Mahi Mahi Curry which was a "10", it had a great sauce that complimented the fish and similar to a Thai dish but much more flavorable, mild and tasty. I ordered a Monk Fish, off the Valentines Menu, sitting on some cabbage and pork belly, hard to describe but fabulous. We ordered a glass of French Chardonnay, clean crisp and complimented both dishes extremely well. Our waiter Joey was attentive, warm and very likeable. We went early so not much noise and conversation was easy and seating was great. Read some reviews harsh on the chef and not sure why but our meal and experience was very positive and I wanted to compliment him and let them all know we will be back!
Oyster Happy Hour continues to be the shining star at the Oyster Club at the Heritage!! Food is fresh and fantastic, a great place to be. I have to say that my server/bartender Emely makes the difference at the Oyster Club. She is awesome, fantastic and super personable. As soon as I walked in she knows my favorite wine that's what customer service is all about. Restaurants are all over town but that experience it's hard to find. I have been recommending the restaurant to a lot of my Northshore friends because I guarantee that Emely will make their experience one of a kind.

They do $1 oysters from 4pm to 6pm. Nice place to chill and get your fill of oysters. 8 varieties of bivalves to choose from when we were there

I sat at the bar and ordered the mussels w. frites and a beer. Ended up having an oyster, even though I had never tried one before. The bartender was kind enough to choose one for me and explain how I was supposed to eat it. Also, I found myself having a glass of wine someone had accidentally ordered.

Went for Friday couples dinner with friends. The atmosphere and decor take you right into a classic ocean liner atmosphere-attention to detail everywhere. The service was excellent, very sophisticated and well trained staff. Food was as well thought out as the interior: well designed, planned and crafted. The seafood chowder is best in Boston; scallops were perfection; and all the details from the large oyster crackers to the rolls were exceptional. Top notch cocktails and exquisite dessert. If you are looking for a way to discern this place from other seafood restaurants, the artisanal quality and presentation is the focus here - there are other places to go for more ‘mass’ produced, or larger portions. Come here for the experience and quality. Excited to go back.

Wow. A lot had changed in the past month. Went in to try the halibut with green curry and had a hard time finding the halibut because it was cut into 6 small bite sized squares (boo). We also noticed that the main n.v agreement had downsized their staff and a few of our favorites were gone. It took about 40 minutes and 3 attempts to get bread. Hmmm, this may no longer be our "Go to" spot for seafood.
