Loved every bite!!! Both me and my husband have never tried oyster and today seem like a beautiful day to do so! Great location! #CheckEmOutDFW Our son enjoyed his chicken strips while we dined on super fresh and delicious oysters! Wait staff is awesome! Totally try the fried mushrooms! They were BOMB! THANK YOU STAFF FOR A YUMMY FEAST!

We heard the chili was good, but we were pleasantly surprised by the gumbo and fried okra. Of course, the oysters Rockefeller were great also. Everything came out hot, fresh, and very quickly. So hot and fresh that I burned my mouth more than once on the okra Oh and the chili was very good with big chunks of meat. It's very filling and absolutely worth 12. We will definitely go back to try the other varieties of oysters, shrimp, and more gumbo!

Cozy spot for seafood. Oysters were fresh and delicious. Ceviche was good. Po-Boy bread was perfect and the crawfish sausage and bodin balls cooked just right. The Gumbo didn't taste like gumbo to me. Not bad, but not what I was expecting. The texture was almost gelatinous. Service was prompt and friendly.

Excellent place. I went on a Thursday at 1:00pm and there was no wait time. The catfish fillet was cooked perfectly as well as the shrimp. The fries were very good. They weren't overly salty and had a fresh taste. In addition, the service is very attentive and straightforward. I'll be back next time to try out the fresh oysters!

This is like an oyster dive bar. The oysters were big, fresh, gulf oysters. Don't expect oyster variety, but what they do, they do well. There are a number of grilled and fried options on the menu, but we stuck to oysters. Service was fast and friendly. Definitely recommend.
