Public Fish & Oyster is an absolute gem! The oysters are fantastic — super fresh and an incredible selection that's perfect for any seafood lover. The New England clam chowder is to die for—rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The French fries are perfectly crispy and addictive, and the lobster roll is outstanding with generous portions and amazing taste. The crab cakes are some of the best I've ever had—full of lump crab and cooked to perfection. If you love...
Large selection of oysters which are so good depending on your preferences. Mussels can be served on of three ways and are also delicious. The rest of the menu has something for everyone. Cocktails are great. It is noisy so be prepared for that.
Had a wonderful dining experience at Public Fish & Oyster! Food was delicious, and our server, Alexis, was super! Oysters Rockefeller was really good, plus the fish specials and desserts! Highly recommend this restaurant.
