Austin ChronicleMarch 23, 2013Quality has been Austin's signature fishmonger since 1938, and in 2012, it underwent a major expansion. Go for oysters, Gulf shrimp, and Cajun- and Creole-influenced seafood dishes. Read more
Duffy KrisSeptember 8, 2018Absolutely loved this hole in the wall, hidden from all with the lights barely on. But inside...., waits the tastiest seafood you’ll ever have.
Justin MartinDecember 30, 2021Great place to purchase excellent seafood to cook at home! Also their menu has freshest seafood in Austin while keeping the recipes simple focusing on fish. They will fly in fish per request!
Policarpo al FrescoJune 29, 2023Freshest Gulf oysters with horseradish, salt and lemon juice. Their deep-fried cod is excellent. Okra and fries sides are awesome.
Sit at the bar to avoid ordering at the window. Slim wine selection but plenty of local beers. Oysters are tasty and fresh. Fried foods aren't as good though. Still a neat spot overall.
Gina EstradaMay 7, 2015Mahi tacos are great! Taco Tuesday is the the best of their weekly specials with $3.00 tacos and $2.00 all domestic drafts.
WiFi password is gofish Bummed they don’t do steamed clams or whole belly fried clams anymore but Blackened Drum was delicious.
Karen FraserJanuary 29, 2013My first visit since QS renovated and expanded. Great improvement. Was often too crowded in the past. Hooray!
- ⚜️RockdeLis.com⚜️ ~Erin Michelle~💋April 24, 2015Raw gulf oysters, fried scallops, fried oysters, fried catfish & the Mac & cheese was delicious.
Jason C.November 15, 2014Seafood lovers dream come true! Ordered way more than four people should be eating but we devoured it all..
Jonathon TaylorSeptember 5, 2023Po boys are great. Also John, the fishmonger knows what he’s doing, trust him.
Angeline ChampagneApril 25, 2013Fried shrimp basket - quite good. Turned off big time - some of the cooks behind the Oysters Bar kept eating when we sat down & still eating after we paid our bill. Unprofessional & very nasty!
Brittany WischOctober 24, 2012Yummy oysters! Try and get a table by the bar so you don't have to wait in line.- Maine Lobster on Saturday only. Good food the rest of the week too!
- Lobster and steamed clams like mom used to make. And devour.
- Saturday boiled lobster special and taco Tuesdays are the best!
The food truck breakfast tacos are amazing! Crawfish migas tacos!
Two dollar Tuesdays, can't beat it with $2 beer and $2 tacos. I like the blackened mahi and a corona.
The mac n cheese is... weird. But the seafood is great! Oysters are the jam!
Nom Nom PRMay 3, 2012Best seafood in town. Tuesdays are $2 seafood tacos and $2 pints of beer! Great deal!
Shelby HallJune 3, 2012If you go with friends, get someone else to stake out a table for you-- seating is first-come, first-served.
Kristen McKlunkleFebruary 18, 2010There's an awesome "Life Aquatic"-esque mural on the wall furthest from the dining area in a corner. Go check out this place for the art alone- I want that painting!!
I go for either the raw oysters or the crawfish, when they're in season.
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014James Holmes, chef of Lucy's Fried Chicken, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Gulf oysters on the half shell. Read more
Chefs.comFebruary 4, 2011VALENTINE’S DAY SPECIAL - Two 6 oz. bacon-wrapped filet mignons, plus two 5-6 oz. Canadian lobster tails for only $29.95!
Sit at the bar or high tables if you'd like table service.
John PullenOctober 3, 2012Tuesday night tacos.... Two tacos... Two beers...two dollar tip... One ten dollar bill.
