Big Al's Oyster Bar Reviews
The seafood chowder is a nice change from the traditional New England or Manhattan Chowders. Rich and flavorful. The crawfish in the boil were over cooked and mushy. The sourdough bread used to be delicious. That seems to have changed after the remodel. Now just okay.
Delicious seafood and great staff. Definitely going back.
I try to visit every time I am in town.

Big Al's Oyster Bar offers a mixed experience according to recent visitors. While some were disappointed with a mix-up in their order and poor service, others were impressed by the delicious seafood and reasonable prices. Dishes like lobster Mac & cheese, fresh oysters, and crab cakes stood out positively, along with friendly service from attentive staff. The raw seafood, BBQ oysters, and clam chowder received high praise, making it a go-to spot for seafood cravings. The complimentary bread and butter pair well with their soups, and desserts like Nilla banana with real bananas are appreciated. The restaurant is noted for its nice atmosphere, especially when seated away from the casino noise, and has an excellent manager. Some dishes, like the gumbo, were noted as too spicy or lacking quality ingredients. Overall, Big Al's Oyster Bar seems to have its highs and lows, making it a hit or miss dining option for those looking for seafood in Vegas.
