Have never been disappointed dining at Oyster Rock, but tonight was exceptional. We all ordered one of the specials and loved our meals & appetizers. But what made this evening’s dinner so great, was our server Jarrett and one of the managers (sorry did not get his name but was so knowledgeable & personable). Jarrett provided excellent service and was the absolute best server! We usually reserve Oyster Rock for Special occasions but will not wait for one to go back.

Amazing food and service!

Everything was wonderful. Our reservation was right on time and our requested seating was perfect. Thanks to our waiter. Jeff was so efficient and helpful choosing our menu and it was delicious. The view was beautiful! Thanks to everyone at oyster rock for making our evening so pleasant.

Food was fantastic from appy to entree. Our server, Jarrett was the best. So professional & knowledgeable. Loved that even one of the managers came over to check on us. We have dined here many times & each time had a wonderful experience.

It was our first time and someone recommended. Our server was good . It was our anniversary. So was disappointed we didn't get a free dessert . The calabash platter was so so . I could have made the shrimp at home for how it tasted . Flounder wasn't that special . Main course not great . Dessert . Martini , salad was good and unique

C'est notre troisième visite à ce restaurant et TOUT est vraiment délicieux. MERCI à Lawanda pour son excellent service. Le site est très joli et l'ambiance est agréable avec un chansonnier.

Oyster Rock never disappoints. The compressed watermelon seasonal salad they're now offering is phenomenal, as are all the entrees we have tried. Always on our go to list when we are nearby.

The oyster rock accommodated us for our rehearsal dinner which was an absolute success! The staff was attentive, personable and professional. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was. We had an amazing experience working with the manager, Todd. We can’t wait to visit again!

My husband and I arrived early and were quickly accommodated with seating. We have always had a great experience at the oyster rock and really enjoyed going this visit. Try the grilled Grouper with Au gratin potatoes. Really all the food, service and drinks are some of the best. We will be back the Oyster Rock makes my time with my husband so special. Thank you.

In a time when many restaurants struggle to provide consistently great service and amazing food, Oyster Rock never disappoints. Our server was excellent and knew all the details on the menu. I got the Chilean sea bass special and my friend got the shrimp and scallops with pasta. Both were flavorful and cooked perfectly. The portions weren't gigantic, but just right. We loved the complementary chips and dip,too. The restaurant is beautiful, but try to snag a table overlooking the water. You can't beat the view. They even had live music when we were there which was an added plus. P.S. If you like she crab soup, get a cup there. It's the best in town.

Oysters!!! And Escargot !!! With a start of lemon cheesecake martini! Grilled Romaine was great and the Chilean sea bass with miso glaze was lovely ! Can’t go wrong with any item you choose.

Generally love oyster rock..had escargot which was great..oysters ok..wife had grouper but texture suggested swordfish... but 43 dollars that's NYC price....fried seafood platter very disappointing..shrimp small ..oysters terrible ..minuscule ...cooked to a crisp...(have had platter at Oliver's in Southport which is amazing..$24)...payed $34 at OR...complete ripoff..never order again...finally need to invest in acoustic material way too loud ...next time will stick with appetizers

The service was outstanding as usual and the fish was cooked to perfection with perfect sauce combination. Had blackened grouper with Lobster sauce. My wife had crab cake mahi mahi with bernaise sauce. Only weak part of dining experience was the apple cobbler as it was not really cobbler but oats and apples. Will be back for sure.
