Bay House Oyster Bar & Restaurant

We had dinner here for our anniversary on a Monday night. We made reservations and had an unexpected situation come up and had to push our reservations by half an hour they were surprisingly accommodating, especially when we arrived and they seemed to be fairly busy with several larger parties. The food was delicious. I had never tried oysters and we got the 2 cooked oysters appetizers and they were delicious. The drinks were also great. We each ordered an entrée my husband got the burger spend I got the dry aged NY strip. It was a little more rare than I may had liked but I think that was due to the cooking method so I recommend maybe ordering a little more cooked than you typically would, but the flavor was delicious. I ordered the truffle mac and cheese as a side, the portions are huge which was nice especially after initially seeing the prices for the sides. I personally would prefer a smaller portion and to have the side included with the entrée. Overall for 2 drinks, 2 appetizers, 2 entrée, 1 side, a sauce accompaniment, and 2 desserts our dinner cost $221. It was definitely the most expensive dinner we've had but for the occasion and the food we feel it was mostly worth the cost.

This was my 4th time there, I had a reservation but my party couldn't make it so I dined alone, SEATING WAS AWESOME, AMBIANCE WAS SUPERB AND MY WAITRESSES WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I WILL BE DINING ALONE AGAIN REAL SOON, IT WAS A VIBE🤗

Came on Monday specifically for the fun fall cocktails!! my pumpkin martini was delicious but the “spider-tiny” was so strong/sweet that I could barely choke it down. I also got the Mac & cheese with chicken which was very good except the chicken was very dry. Our waiter was phenomenal & I do love it there!! but the food was overpriced for sure & 1/2 of my drinks were not good.

The fig hibuscus martini was amazing. Our waitress recommended a few different fresh oysters to try, and the Lucky Lime?? were so good. We could have ordered another round. Lobster risotto was perfectly cooked. The cookies and cream creme brulee was outstanding. Our waitress was attentive and just a joy! We never feel rushed there!

Wildly overpriced and disappointing food quality. Risotto far too al dente although the lobster was well cooked. Sea bass was spongy and sauce was bland. Oysters were good. Overall needs better quality control. Maybe good for lunch. Lovely view though!

The food temperature was cooler than I'd expect. My potatoes was not hot and it was not loaded as ordered. Our guest ordered lobster Mac and cheese and was missing the lobster. For the price, I don't want to have to send food back. It should be perfect the first time.

Food was great, service was good. We got our appetizer before our drinks—which was odd. Although the restaurant was mostly empty, we were given a booth by the bar. It was a conversation stopper...way too noisy. We should have asked to move.

Food was terrific. Filet and crab cakes were on point Sauce “flight” was underwhelming but the steak really didn't need any help and was delicious on its own. Truffle fries and brown butter green beans were wonderful as well.

Our server was prompt and had a sense of humor. The food was delicious. I picked at the Luxe Charcuterie board. I really wanted it for breakfast the next day. My crab cake entree was so good but huge. My husband has the pork tomahawk. He ate the beignets with espresso.

The food choices were fabulous. The only complaint was the Ravioli dinner was luke warm for my cousin. The appetizers and other entrees were very good. The service was very very slow on just getting drink orders and food orders in. It was not very busy and there were many empty tables. So it was not overwhelming. Would go again if I have a chance.

It was our first time there! Emily was great she was a fantastic guide. Since it was our first time having oysters together!! And her service was fantastic. We will definitely be back.

Kim was our server and did a phenomenal job! The food was delicious! Lobster seafood dip was a great appetizer. The sushi bowl was awesome as was the sea bass! Everything was fantastic!!!

Underwhelming at best. Mushy Crabcakes, very ordinary filet, decent mashed potatoes and shrimp scampi.

Great restaurant Best thing was the oysters Rockefeller. Sea bass was exceptional. Our waiter Mustafa was great and brought us a complementary order of beignets as it was our anniversary. Great view of the bay. Only issue is that the crab cakes were described as jumbo lump. They were good but not jumbo lump, just the shredded crab meat. Other than that a great experience

Perfect spot for a date night! The drinks were fantastic, our steaks were cooked to perfection, and the oysters were absolutely delicious. We had such a wonderful evening and loved the warm, inviting atmosphere. The service was amazing, and it's truly one of the best spots for fine dining in Erie. This was our first time here and we can't wait to come back!
