    I had an amazing experience at The Oyster Club, we had a nice big table to enjoy the assortment of Oysters and appetizers, entrees, and bubbles they had to offer. One of the best dining experiences I've had in years and I eat everywhere. Joey T was our server and set the standard for information, hospitality and service rendered. Five stars all around.

    Limited menu and wine list; not great ambiance, somewhat on the fast food restaurant style of interior; however the food itself, oysters, muscles and lamb meatballs were excellent. The service was also excellent.

    a group of coworkers enjoyed a great meal and drinks. I work in the fine dining industry and although liked and enjoyed the waiter he was so new he should not have been training a newbie. they were too attentive, trying too hard instead of just relaxing and enjoying their working shift. We work close by so we'll def be back and both waiters will only get better as they should excellent promise. Practice makes perfect.

    I have been to Oyster Club several times, and this evening, they were spot on. Everything was very flavorful, fresh and delicious! Waitress was excellent and manager came over to check in. Very quiet night. Will probably pick up with good weather and the nice patio outside.

    Excellent food and service are on hand. We tried a variety of fresh delicious shellfish and a very good wine list. This recently opened seafood heaven has the one thing I missed at Island Creek: a soft, warm sound-reducing dining room with a user friendly layout. Looking forward to my return visit.

    Six of us dined and everyone was thrilled with their meals. Some of us had dined at O.C. before but for some it was a new experience. Many of us enjoyed the Seafood Chowder (do not confuse this with clam chowder) which is sublime! It’s loaded with seafood including shrimp, mussels and flaky white fish in a delightfully light cream based broth that doesn’t overpower the flavors. It’s a meal in itself for me, but appears on the appetizer portion of the menu. Salads were also great. For main courses, I love both the branzino and the salmon. Lunch menu also has a salmon/shrimp burger that is amazing with a cucumber salad on top.

    Lovely service, from the oyster crackers and bluefish pate upon seating, to a perfect cocktail, terrific wine list, and delicious food. Worth the trip!!

    We enjoyed our meal at the Oyster Club at the Heritage. There were a few hiccups (not enough menus, the oysters came twice) but otherwise we really enjoyed the monkfish special, mussels and branzino.
