- Ms HeleneAugust 29, 2014Happy hour 4-7 for $2 east coast oysters. Skip salmon tartare & crab cake but order the Clam boil in broth with Old Bay, potatoes and corn $15. Unique booth interior & decor. Recommended.
- tara markertAugust 22, 2014Pulpo Flatbread! My 1st time trying octopus might continue to be the best. The food is fantastic and the service, excellent. The Kumamoto oysters, ahi tuna, mussels with rolls, oh!
- paisleyApril 4, 2013Chicken liver pâté is a must. Black bass & risotto is great. Short rib is tasty. Mussels are great to share. Foursquare special is ONLY honored at the bar. Smh. They could be a little flexible...
- Amy ChinMay 18, 2016Oysters is in its name, but the rest of the menu is why I eat here. Changes daily, always creative. Recent stand-outs: brussel sprouts 2 ways, seafood jambalaya w/ramp powder, spring pea shoot salad.
- The Wall Street JournalJanuary 24, 2013The Brooklyn chowder is something of a cross between the creamy New England favorite and Manhattan's tomato-based counterpart and is served with corn nuts and homemade goldfish and oyster crackers. Read more
- Shiyana BellamyApril 2, 2016Their Lobster BLT is the best thing I've had in a longtime. I believe the added sriracha aioli gives it that special something to seal the deal as "the best lobster roll" for me.
- Fee OAugust 21, 2016Good appetizers, the crab cake salad was tasty. A little disappointed with the happy hour oysters, were pretty small and not savory. Got the Moon Shoal in return, and tasted better. Comfy interior.
- Ben WMay 4, 2014Service was attentive, friendly and informative. Oysters were delicious though one had shell fragments. Brussels sprouts were brilliant take on Caesar salad. Avoid shrimp corn dogs and fish tacos.
- Chad KorpeckFebruary 22, 2015Great oysters, great drinks, great food. You can't go wrong with anything you order here. Same owners as Almond. These guys know what they're doing.
- Lovely G.September 30, 2014The oysters are fresh and delicious, the fish tacos are tasty and the strawberry shortcake is the best I've had.
- Amy ChinJanuary 13, 2017$16 Prix fixe lunch is great deal. 3 choices of appetizer & entrees. I had Monkfish 'foie gras' and seafood risotto. All tasty and good sized portions.
- Joan ParkSeptember 15, 2014Tuna Ranchers had a very metallic fishy aftertaste and I still wonder if the Oyster Tacos actually had oysters in them. But I would come for the adorable booth seats and lighting.
- Rebekah HavrillaApril 8, 2013The grilled octopus appetizer was uh.maze.ing. A little bit pricier than John Dory but different selection of oysters and excellent small plates make it worth the occasional splurge.
- Karen CooperNovember 14, 2016Seafood platter was awesome. Excellent service, great vibes, 50% off wine bottles on Sundays and Mondays. I'll be back for sure!
- kate kAugust 29, 2014Angels on horseback are amazing - dates stuffed with goats cheese and fried, with a sauce that adds even more texture and flavour
- Julie QiuNovember 9, 2012Solid food here all around. My favorites were the Brooklyn Clam Chowder, Frisee Salad w/ Fried Oysters, and (of course) OYSTERS! xx InAHalfShell.com
- John PhanJanuary 22, 2014Claim chowder is delicious, shrimp corn dogs are, as well. The girls are nice, but one of the guys is a condescending ass. Don't come when they're understaffed - guessing mostly on snow days.
- Andrew PerezApril 20, 2016Home made goldfish crackers are the best. Just order them as soon as you sit down.
- Chris KonecnyMay 7, 2015Menu printed daily, seasonal ingredients, good preparation and pres. Food tasted good though everything was a bit on heavy/rich side (I tried to order light), some balance would have been better
- Emilie FuttermanSeptember 12, 2015Great brunch deal and happy hour. Grits are delicious. There's a large table that's good for a group.
- april pongtraticOctober 25, 2014had the braised short rib and it was delicious and fell right off the bone. had to try oysters and was not disappointed.
- Rob MApril 25, 2013Dinner tips, oysters are fantastic, gluten free options are available , however their solutions are not always logical. Frisée salad without the oysters and no substitution?
- Sandra RubinchikJanuary 4, 2015$5 glasses of wine and pints of beer during happy hour. And these aren't skimpy glasses of wine either.
- Claude HarrisonOctober 20, 2015DO get the scallops and raviolo. Savory. Filling.... unctuous comes to mind. The soft egg takes it over the top! Be hungry.
- Meatless MondayJanuary 28, 2014This old-school-new-school oyster joint is now going meatless on Mondays, offering a selection of vegetarian small plates and entrees every Monday night.
- Sameepa ShettyJuly 10, 2014The Big Platter is a must have. Great for 2. Love the west cost oysters & the lobster salad! Great wait staff.
- Madeline McDavidJanuary 13, 2016Brussel sprouts with lamb and bacon is the best I've ever had. Amazing cocktails, too.
- May R.December 14, 2013Lobster BLT by far is the best with the buttery bread. The juice just flow down your hands once you take a first bite.
- Fernando T.February 26, 2016Small oyster bar with good wines and reasonable prices. There is a happy hour for oysters)
- Steven YMarch 19, 2013Get the Shigoku and Montauk pearl oysters and the octopus a la plancha; sit in a booth for your very own magnetic poetry board
- Tim FogartyFebruary 13, 2014New York's best Motley Crue-themed oyster bar. Get the Nikki Sixx - half dozen oysters and a shot of Jager!
- Igor LevitNovember 17, 2014Loved the clam chowder and oysters. Oyster Po' Boy was also a winner. Excellent waitstaff!
- Dustin LeeFebruary 4, 2018On Mondays, $29 gets you an 1 1/4 lb lobster and all the fixings, which is a solid deal. Skip the fries - bad enough a seafood restaurant serves steak fries, worse when they're bad.
- This place is amazing! Best oysters I've ever had. So adorable and good service. Fun place!! Play with the magnet walls.
- Jackie MurphyDecember 22, 2013Great food! Used to have a larger beer list. Now they only have two? If your a beer drinker you may want to choose a diff spot. :(
- Allison YuFebruary 1, 2015The crab cakes were surprisingly my favorite dish. Super crispy, fresh, and delicious.
- Cole KennedyDecember 16, 2016The oysters are nothing special, but it's a good vibe and a good value. Good weeknight spot.
- Sanna WickmanJune 16, 2015Best oysters in NYC, cute staff, the medium plates are actually small plates!

- Amie ZimmermanJune 25, 2014LOBSTER... B... L... T... and the mussels are crack, I could eat that broth all day loooong.
