The best seafood in the Midwest! Come for the oysters, stay for the Tuna Louise, and return for the great staff and company (particularly Hannah!).

Earl’s is a little cozy intimate restaurant. The inside is crowded and small but they have patio space as well. I didn’t like that you’re so close to other customers, conversations felt like everyone could hear it. We sat inside for a table of 4. Service was great. Servers are awesome here and attentive, drinks are good. We Ordered lots of different dishes but will critique a few dishes. First the oysters. All 4 types that I tried did not taste fresh and had a bitter or gritty swampy after taste. I didn’t care for the champagne sauce they had paired with it. Not sure if it’s the kind of oysters they ordered or how they clean them or cut them, but it wasn’t to my liking. Tidewater biscuits was lackluster with dry biscuits and I felt like the sauce wasnt allowing the seafood flavor to round out while cooking and got too heavy on the cream. That goes the same for the clam chowder, it was missing the oompf. Smoked trout spread was too salty. Peel n eat shrimp was probably the only good thing there. Overall, the quality was not bad but the flavor and overall food experience left something to be desired.

Earl’s was SO good that I took no photos. Best clam chowder I’ve had in my entire clam chowder eatin’ life. The bowl size was incredibly filling and came with their homemade crackers 🤌🏼
Pair that with raw bar oysters and a frozen gin & tonic (or two) on their covered & heated patio….you’ve got the perfect night!!

What a fantastic find. I was in the mood for fresh fish and eats. Wife found it on line. It did not disappoint. Hush puppies are the best I've ever had. Scallops were fantastic. I had the cod. (Fish and chips) we just vacation in Maine and had this. Earls beat them. Wife had sea bass with veggies. So good. John at the bar was a wonderful host. After being full of food I saw a bull of gumbo being served. I just didn't have the room in my belly. We'll definitely be back.

Was accommodated to sit at the cool bar by myself. All food was absolutely excellent, staff was responsive. Note: There is STILL no good Greek wine as your white Gorka Izagirre is actually Spanish… not Greek but it is delicious nevertheless. Will be back with company
