What User likes about 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: View all feedback. What Stephanie Tjebben doesn't like about Liv's Oyster Bar Restaurant:
My dishes were good, but not my taste. The delicious mussels were overwhelmed by a heavy cream sauce. The delicious scallops, according to my individual taste, had too many competing flavors/ ingredients. The ambiance was cold and not to my liking. We were seated right in front, by the door. The back dining room was more inviting. View all feedback.

They were very busy on a Saturday night. But the waiter was great about keeping us updated on the bar and kitchen. Things were back-up a little, so it was nice...

My cod was over salted but cooked nicely. Swordfish was done nicely. Menu is pricey and a bit limited.

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 stea...
