Liv's Oyster Bar Restaurant

Best food experience I had a while. The duck! The Happy Hour Specials are a great draw. The Oysters were wonderful. Did I mention the duck? Our waiter, Jake, has really added the experience. He gets his own 5 stars. They even went out to take the vegetarian in our group. The atmosphere was beautiful. Good price for a fancier night out. Order the duck:

Obviously a local favorite. High-quality food with a sometimes unusual mix of flavors, for example I was not a fan of the bacon in the chowder.

Great staff. Delicious oysters. You can sit directly at the bar and watch how they prepare your oysters. Fantastic chocolate martini.

An excellent restaurant! All 4 of us loved our meals, and we each order different things. My tuna was rare as desired and high quality tuna. Others ordered steak, scallops and roasted rice. We loved the Beignets.

Very dissatisfied. The reviews give too much credit. The food was good, at best above average but expensive. Our waitress was very accommodating and polite but was unable to fully make up for the attitude of the the hostesses. We were seated out front and had some minor issues with drinks (dirty glasses, piece of food in a drink). Our waitress was great at quickly resolving these issues no problem however while she was busy one of us went in to hand the cup with food in it to the hostesses and as she walked out they proceeded to point and murmur between themselves and did this again later on in the dinner while we were eating. Overall it was am average experience with an above average price tag. The saving grace of it all was our very kind and patient waitress who helped us with these issues. Thank you to her.
