Amazing seafood dishes and cocktails as usual! The best service. We were impressed by the Caesar salad with lemon and anchovies, and the crab Rangoon dip is always a favorite. The “two fish” cocktail in a pitcher with two straws is delicious and fun!
First time. Loved everything. Good oyster selection. Brilliant swordfish pastrami! Could have eaten two orders if clam bellies they were SO crispy perfect. Huge Caesar salads. Lovely wines. Our server was attentive, helpful and super cute!

A delightful experience! Fresh and high quality ingredients masterfully prepared —the anchovy platter, caviar cones and kampachi crudo are top tier. For the non seafood palate, the bar burger rivals that featured in The Menu (Ralph Fiennes/Anya Taylor-Joy)! The service is impeccable—Kyle is not only very knowledgeable but goes out of his way to make every guest feel welcomed and valued. Highly recommend!!

I was in Boston for work, and had a night to myself so I decided to of course get some oysters since I was close to the ocean! I came across POB, and decided to check them out, and I'm glad I did, I was able to sit right at the bar and my bar tender was very attentive but not overbearing, I enjoyed fresh oysters and fish tacos, as well as some delicious strawberry ice cream. I had a delicious martini as well as some orange wine. This was an amazing place and I hope I can make it back one day!

An early Valentine's Day celebration! We also enjoyed trying the Fat Tuesday food and drink specials! Ramos Gin Fizz was superb, Sazerac was delicious, oyster po boy was really tasty. Great service too!

Excellent service, fun crew, great music, creative and satisfying smallish plates with tons of flavor... and good value. Oyster Bar is fun, casual, and cool!! AND they had Moon Shoals on the raw bar menu—which IMO is the best oyster to slurp on the east coast!! Legit great place.

Amazing food, especially the tuna crudo and the scallions. The service was great as we got some good recommendations and more information about the dishes. Their cocktails are excellent and surprising.

Everything was amazing. The only thing is that our drinks kept coming out after our food. We wanted our wine with our oysters, and it didn't come out for quite some time and our final drink order with our last course also was quite late.

Another great night at Puritan oyster bar! The staff, specially Kyle was very welcoming and makes great cocktails :-) the food is on point and just the right amount of spice and flavor and freshness. Highly recommend checking them out.
Some dishes were good, some were small and unappealing (like the tacos). Also the oysters were not properly shucked, I had to use my fork to loosen the oyster so it would slide off the shell. Was looking forward to trying this restaurant but we would not return.

I ordered shrimp cocktail and fried fish sandwich. My boyfriend ordered the clam chowder and burger. All his food came out first and my sandwich came later. Shrimp cocktail came last? The chowder was very thin, I think they fried the clams then put them in the soup, there was a green sauce on top that had no taste. Burgers should come with fries. Nori fries tasted like saw dust. Do not recommend

The staff at Puritan made me and my friends feel like queens, with complementary champagne, caviar cones for the birthday girl and just amazing service overall! Thank you for making our new year so special ?

We had a really lovely dinner a few weeks ago. The food was GREAT and they even made us a fresh batch of ceviche to accommodate our annoying cucumber allergy, which was so appreciated. I only had one complaint which was that it was chilly in there and though I prefer my raw bar chilled, I prefer to be a little warmer while eating. But whatever! Bring a sweater and come eat some super delicious ocean treats!

Solid meal, good service, very accommodating for gluten free. Oysters and interesting cocktails, what more do you need!
