Providence Oyster Bar

Early New Year’s Eve dinner was wonderful. Remy, our waitperson, was sensational. She was attentive , professional and fun!!The food was superb. I had the baked stuffed lobster-actually two, 2lb. Baked stuffed lobsters because a three pounder was not available. It was sublime. The bartender was spectacular-he chatted with my husband about a drink and even went through the process by of to expertly make one. It was a fantastic experience!!

Providence Oyster Bar is a go-to spot for fresh seafood and a lively atmosphere on Federal Hill. The raw bar is a highlight — the oysters are consistently fresh, well-shucked, and nicely varied. Service is generally friendly and attentive, especially during happy hour, which is popular for its oyster specials and upbeat vibe. It can get busy and a bit loud during peak times, but that energy is part of the appeal. Providence Oyster Bar’s happy hour is one of the best in the city. The buck-a-shuck oysters are fresh and well-shucked, and the discounted appetizers make it easy to enjoy quality seafood at a great value. Overall, it’s a reliable choice for seafood lovers looking for quality oysters, good drinks, and a fun dining experience in Providence.

Went for Valentine’s Day weekend and it was great! We were ~5 minutes late for our reservation and got seated immediately. We ordered some of the appy hour items and loooooved them. When we ordered the waitress asked if we were splitting the dishes (we were) so she had the kitchen plate them in two half servings. She was fantastic and we will absolutely come back :) & the raspberry sorbet was amaaaaazing!

What a great and delicious find. As turned out, we visited during the happy hour which included a pretty big selection. We got different types of oysters, sushi, clams, and the most amazing calamari (we even got a second order to go). Everything was fresh and really tasty. Service was friendly and good. Would definitely recommend and would come back if back to Providence.

Love coming here for appy hour and for the $1 oysters. The servers are on point & friendly. This is a great neighborhood bar.
