"Just recently found the Oyster House and have now been there twice in just over a month. If you love raw bars, this is the perfect place. Clams on the half shell and oysters are the BEST. Friendly staff, clean establishment and great food. Drinks are also good!!!"
"Great dining experience if seafood is what you're looking for. Comfortable indoor and patio seating located close to the shopping and hotel areas, and a short walk to the river. Several different types of oysters available every night so they can fill any craving. Also tried the low country boil and Mississippi mud desert, both were excellent!"
