Word on the street
What locals are saying
Oyster House draws consistent praise for its genuinely fresh, locally sourced oysters — including exclusive varieties from Sea Eagle Market in Beaufort — and a knowledgeable, enthusiastic bar staff at the O-Bar. Its Market Street address makes it heavily tourist-trafficked, and the bulk of online reviews skew visitor rather than local, making it hard to surface strong Charleston-resident dissent; that said, Charleston Living has highlighted it as a legitimate local institution. The Southern Belle Oyster Shooters and O-Bar happy hour are the most beloved specifics, while shrimp & grits and fried seafood round out a dependable Lowcountry menu.
