What Others Are Saying

They were AMAZING!!! Thank you guys so much! They got here super quick and we enjoyed them just a few hours later with our family. We’ll be ordering again in the next few months. Thanks for everything!

You are doing an amazing job! Can't wait to try your selection! You have some special people in your teams. As an aside, we were down to our last 5 John's Rivers last night, so I went to Whole Foods to see what they had. Big mistake! You are spoiling us so badly (read outstanding!) that we could not even eat the "Happy" oysters.

Received a gift of oysters today from Michael & Beth shipped by you. Need to let you know they were fantastic and arrived fresh and beautiful. Made us anxious to return to Maine for many more of them. Great service and super fresh oysters. Tom & Sandy

All oysters in the last order were solid on delivery and were excellent when shucked and enjoyed. I sincerely appreciate your making good on the DOAs from the last order, Great variety, quality, and will be ordering more - ME oysters are among the very best as is your service.

The oysters were a huge hit! They didn't last past sundown! We had lobster rolls after that also a huge hit. Thank you for including the monk fish stew as a bonus! That's for tomorrow. Our Christmas Italian tradition is to celebrate the Feast of Seven Fishes. Just as it sounds, we have seven different kinds of fish/seafood usually on Christmas Eve. Your wonderful shipment made for three fabulous additions to the feast; 2 kinds of oysters and the monk fish stew. Our family was blown away by

Couldn't get better oysters anywhere. They're fresh and you can taste the difference between the oysters. Lobster rolls were fantastic as well. Service was impeccable. Make a reservation, some walk-in folks were turned away because the place was booked. Prices were reasonable.

If you love oyster and want to learn how to shuck them from a master then This is the place . Sean was amazing and very knowledgeable . In no time my husband was a master at Shucking Oysters. I had an amazing lobster roll and a fantastic cocktail. The staff was friendly and welcoming. It is defiantly on our tour of Maine activity list for all our visiting friends. I love to be punny so here goes" ah shucks it was so much fun" lol! Corny I know.

Wowza!! You had me at prosecco on tap. The service was outstanding. The drinks so yummy. The oysters so fresh and delicious. Honestly, I could of stayed all night and consumed every single oyster in the place.

As other people have mentioned, this little spot is in a bit of a sketchier area. So I would recommend coming on the earlier side to be safe. But don't stay away! The oysters, mignonette, and lobster rolls are all high quality. They have some nice drink offerings to wash it down as well. We didn't get to try it, but I heard that they hold oyster shucking classes as well. That would be an interesting experience.

First stop in Portland, Maine. We didn't have a reservation but the staff was welcoming and they seated us at the bar right away ! We got their daily special oysters. You can choose to get just one oyster, 6 or 12. They are still priced at $2 each. Really appreciated that they describe their daily specials; this was unique as I didn't find a lot of restaurants doing that. It definitely helped us make our choices. We decided to get 2 each of 5 popular choices and 1 each of the remaining 2 choi

This hidden gem is absolutely amazing. You simply MUST go. It's in a bit of a rougher area , so I have a feeling this may deter some folks and they also may not get the foot traffic that other restaurants get BUT it's beyond worth it. The restaurant itself is quant, charming and exciting all at the same time. You're welcomed in by their friendly staff and a beautiful display of local oysters. The wood bar, tables and seating with calm lighting gives it a rustic feel that makes you just want t

I so appreciate your fantastic customer service. It makes me want to work for you when I come to Maine in April. I’m very impressed with what you do. Thank you!

Cora ,

My husband and I visited your restaurant in Portland when we visited in September and it was one of the best experiences he’s ever had. You were out of XL t shirts when we visited and I know he really wanted one. I was really excited to find out you have them now, it will be a nice surprise to bring a little bit of our vacation under the tree. Thanks for the communication!

The Dameracotta Norumbega oysters you sent yesterday were a "hit outada park" from the guests at my end of the summer seafood party. Many comments such as "these oysters are on a whole new plateau" and of course the ever popular "these are the best oysters I've ever had" And from me; Beautifully packed, arrived in perfect condition and were cold, ontime and most of all as a longtime slurpping oystermaine-iac divinely delicious.

Alexandre H. ,

You guys are so awesome to email! The oysters were the biggest hit. My parents both shucked oysters for the first time and my dad got a blow torch from the garage and did some trick with parmesan cheese that he saw on the intranet! They are too funny. My dad was talking all about the oysters at his office and everyone wants the info about how to order them. You guys really made my Mom's Mother's Day so great.

Hannah St. Louis, MO

Yep, we ate them all!

Bobby Abbeville, LA

Round 2 as was fantastic!! The oysters were perfect and were the easiest oysters we’ve ever shucked. We truly cannot wait to visit your farm!

Kimberly Tucson, AZ

Hello, John and company: The oysters arrived on time for a shucking amazing weekend of slurping!  Thank you!While we love all the different oysters we have met so far, we do especially like the Love Point--but also really enjoyed the Whiskey Stones!  They were more complex than the John's River, with a sweet and creamy finish after the initial salinity.What can make for a better weekend than delicious fresh oysters and some nice New Zealand sauvignon blanc?  (Well, being back East again....)I'll

No issues at all - we loved the oysters and appreciated the fast delivery! We look forward to buying from you guys again in the future.
