I had the grilled octopus and my husband a burger. We have to say that everything was delicious. Food was very tasty and customer service was excellent!

Absolutely delicious oysters. Highly recommend the scallops as well. If you're into cocktails, be warned, they're delicious but served in tiny portions.

This place was on our list to try for a long time. Both Oysters and service is great. We'll be back to taste the rest of the menu. I highly recommend who loves seafood.

Great Oyster shucker kept all the juice where it belonged! The shrimp ceviche was surprisingly good with what seemed like fresh shrimp. A light, airy, happy little place with a comfy modern vibe. Great drinks too!

I am glad that they are still doing well and even expanded the menu during Covid. I can tell from the menu, they have more fresh goodies to enjoy!
We had two rounds of oysters (omg so fresh so good), raw bay scallops (surprisingly good), raw clams (bit fishy), hamachi was to die for, and lobster poutine. We enjoyed most of the raw dishes that day! Everything was fresh except for the clams which I found them quite fishy, the rest of the dishes hit the spot. Also, we opted for a Kimchi biscuit plate (came with 2 biscuits, kimchi butter, and honey) and a chicken waffle. The biscuits were surprisingly good (soft and warm) even though we couldn't taste any kimchi flavor in the butter. As for the chicken & waffles, this is the second time I had it here. Unfortunately not my fave! Just a bit too dry in general. Cocktails were mostly good, fly me away was my favorite. (It tastes a bit like a New York sour, so delicious)
All in all, good atmosphere + tasty seafood! Here are my top choices: 1. "West coast oysters", slightly better than East coast selections. 2. "Raw bay scallops" and 3. "hamachi" were so tasty. Cocktails were on point too. Cheers!

This Oyster bar is the best place to go if you are exploring the ROW DTLA in the afternoon. Located in the center of the district, we went there on a cozy Wednesday. Seats outside are abundant with one-hour free parking spots right next to the restaurant, it was a perfect place for a casual brunch with friends and family.
The Rappahannock Oyster Bar, as it is called, is well known for its Oyster. And this time we tried three different kinds of oysters that were recommended by them, the Rappahannock River Oysters, which is their signature, gave us a sweet taste; the Rochambeau Oysters were mild, and the Olde Salt Oysters were brinier.
Enjoying the sunshine on their patio by the flowers, paring the Argyle winery pinot noir with oysters, we recommended ordering their Butter Lettuce Salad to get started, the watermelon in it has refreshed our day.
If you are looking for a place that is not costly while graceful for a date or meeting, this is exactly the choice!

Excellent food. Great service. Don't leave without having the signature Rappahannock oysters--sweet and a little briny. The lobster mac & cheese is crazy good. The crispy oysters were small but juicy and the batter was fried chicken-worthy.

Cool space, awesome oysters. Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for a quick bite. We had reservations and they were running a little bit behind, but they were friendly and seated us within 20 minutes. Our server was friendly and prompt and the food came quickly. The fries and oysters were great - fries were hot and oysters were all delicious. We tried three different types of oysters and all were good to the degree we even ordered more! Cool location, would recommend checking out!
