Rappahannock Oyster Bar

Excellent oysters. The server was helpful, friendly and knowledgable. Short ribs were delicious. I would recommend.

Second time here and it didn't disappoint. Consistently good and interesting food. I'm surprised it wasn't busier but maybe folks miss this great spot since it's a little outside of downtown.

This is a great restaurant. We love the menu and the location. The past two visits the service was slow and discombobulated. Food took longer to arrive at the table than past visits and was not paced well. The noise level in the dining room was deafening! Two large groups with almost sonic boom voiced dinners made conversation impossible. We can't hold this against the restaurant it just made for a very unpleasant experience. Maybe groups should be put in a more remote spot in the space.We will dine here again and recommend it. Wear ear plugs.

Loved this quaint restaurant with the awesome copper bar, great oysters of many kinds, and wonderful food. Such a nice evening--will definitely go back again!!

Oysters were awesome and our server fantastic! Very knowledgeable!! I had scallops imperial and that was yummy and served beautifully in shells over salt! Nice!!

Father's Day Brunch was excellent! My husband said the shrimp and grits was the best he has eaten so far and my shrimp poor boy was great also. We will definitely return.

Food was good except ice cream had no flavor The cook kept clanking the pans -very loud bangs-throughout our meal even though we complained about noise to our waiter The water said he told the manager we would never return or recommend because of the noise We never saw the manager Overall not a good experience

Great place for outside Sunday lunch. Oysters and crab cake were delicious, as well as the chocolate mousse special.

Delightful meal. I seldom order crab cakes outside of Maryland, but these were spot on. Perhaps the most delish collard greens ever. Highly satisfying! Reasonable value. Would return here a lot based on food quality. A tad loud

Excellent food and service with a beautiful setting for the price, just be aware of how loud it can be.

Great seafood, ambiance and service! Not for a quiet place to eat; definitely fitting for my family of 5, large parties and groups.

Food was delicious! Crab cake was fully crab, little filler, if sny. Soft shell crab was scrumptious. Waiter Joseph was excellent!

The waiter was attentive, the seafood was fresh and well prepared. This was soft shell crab and oyster season and Rappahannock did not disappoint!

It is our go to place, adjacent parking, consistently good food and wine, and clams and oysters fresh and available. Our server,Jay, was marvelous as well. We've been a dozen times and will surely return.

Wide variety of oysters, sweet local shrimp, blue crab cake but not lump meat! Great mezcal margarita, OK selection of beers on draft. A bit pricey at $9 for side salad and $7 for bread, so best to go during 4-6pm happy hour.
