    Set at the bar, very nice bartenders made great suggestions. Good beer selection too. Grilled oysters were the best I’ve had in FL and as close to some of the top places in NOLA. I’ll be back for sure!

    Very good.. Big portions.. if you leave hungry, it's your own fault. The fried shrimp and fried oysters are really good. Our waitress Denise was super!!!

    First time visiting. Wanted oysters but sadly enough no raw oysters or cheese grits. A busy night. Great service. Good food. Our waitress, Meagan, was on point with drinks and ensuring we had what we needed. Very friendly staff. Tables cleaned immediately after use. Loved the fish and the grilled chicken. Expected bigger size calamari. Still good. We also liked the strawberry and cream bread pudding. Added vanilla ice cream. Just be ready to spend $9 for the dessert combo. Overall good experience.

    A friend took us here because they loved it so much. If you are an oyster lover, this place is for you! I had the grilled shrimp tacos and my wife got the big sampler platter. The staff were awesome to make sure my wife’s platter did not have the spicy stuff on it since she does not handle it well. We were both pleased with our meal and the service was very good.

    Oh my gosh! This was highly recommend Ed by a local to us without hesitation when we mentioned we wanted grilled oyster. What can I really say about this place! One of the best baked/grilled oyster I have ever had!!. Key west style was our favorite, but we did order the traditional chargeilled and the Kenny. The oyster soup was also really good! Great flavor and quite a few oysters in there for being a small cup! Would recommend trying the homemade key lime pie it's not bitter at all. You get a small hint of key lime. Service was also great, our waiter was on top of things, and service was quick. A few years later ... Came back today 6.3.23 and it was just as good! The waiter was amazing (again) and on top of things and recommended getting the wings crabby style. She also made a recommendation to split my order up on the oyster so that it would still be piping hot when I got to devour them. Thanks Savannah! Will be back soon

    We ate here last night! My best friend had too much sun and not enough water. She ended up fainting outside. Two employees noticed and immediately started helping. Dana? I think was her name (cool chick with tattoos) got her Gatorade, bread, even a bag of towels to lay her head on while we waited to be seated. (She didn’t want to leave after she fainted) once we were seated our waitress kept checking on her, making sure she was feeling alright. Our food was amazing! Get the oyster sampler if you go. My grandparents noticed the tip didn’t go through their bank so they went to check and make sure the waitress received it the next day. When they went by the asked if my friend was alright! Great place, great people, and great food! Will be back.

    We ordered at 8:30, and they closed at 9:00. They treated us great, food was fresh and delicious. If you’re not used to the price of seafood, be prepared, but it’s worth it.

    Talk about a delicious lunch! A few items I didn’t get to take a picture of is the Apalachicola Bay, Clam Chowder, Oyster Stew, and the Shrimp Curry! Pictured are the Kenny (Jalapeño), Rockefeller, and the Chargrilled Keywester (dozen). Overall everything is very fresh and delicious! We look forward to coming back next year hopefully!

    We stopped by on the way through to FWB from Pensacola. It's great food and a perfect bar and grill atmosphere too. The Kenny baked oysters were great and they had a huge selection of oysters. My wife doesn't like seafood so she loved the burger po'boy. Hush puppies are very good also. We'd definitely go back!

    Food was hot and fresh but portions vs price, unbelievable!! I had the blackened mahi-mahi salad. The fish portions was fine. The salad was a side salad portion. Pictured is the clown fish poboy. Not sure of the $ as I did not get the bill.

    this was my first time having oysters and they didn't disappoint. I ordered 6 in case i didn;'t like them, but then ordered 6 more of another flavor which I liked even more. The bacon rockafellers are yummy. My husband said the clam chowder was really good.

    Found this place on the internet. The raw oysters were really fresh and looked amazing. We'll stop back by before we go home to enjoy another dozen. The seafood boil was great too. I was surprised the grits had a good flavor. I'm not a grits fan but these were good.

    Service was Great!! They were all quick attentive kind and just plain fantastic. A nice rustic old south restaurant with good southern food. Everything we had was pretty good. Fresh? Maybe, but still pretty good. All in all falls glad we went here!

Our server Krystal was phenomenal and went out of her way to ensure we had the best service along with the other staff that definitely works as a team! And the food!! Omg. I can’t say enough!! It was delicious!! Dave’s impressed!!

    The mahi was deliciously seasoned. I didn't like the cheese grits. The atmosphere was loud. Maybe next time i will try oysters.

    Eric and I were looking for a place to grab some oysters for dinner. We received a recommendation from a friend to try Dave's Oyster Bar and Grill. Great place, the service was spectacular, the waiters were knowledgable and very accommodating with all of our questions. We sat at the bar and our first round was a dozen raw oysters. The opened them while we watched at the bar. They We probably the best we have had. Tried the bang bang strip and it was also very good. Got a recommendation from the waiter on steamed oysters. He suggested the steamed oysters sampler. It has 20 oysters with 10 different styles. Great suggestion, our favorite was the Cajun parmesan garlic, second was the Rockefeller. All in all we had a great evening and will be back!

    Ate here on vacation. Food and service were good. Only complaint was that the restaurant was LOUD. So much so that we couldn't carry on a conversation while eating. We would carry out from there, though.
