Description

Oyster Express in Chinatown is a cozy treasure with a great selection of fresh oysters from various regions. While the happy hour oysters were a bit underwhelming, the Gorge Inlet oysters stood out as a favorite. The clean shucks and friendly service set this spot apart, making it a must-visit for oyster lovers. With reasonable prices and a charming atmosphere, Oyster Express is a hidden gem worth uncovering again and again.

Favourite oyster joint when I can make their hours. Raw oysters always fresh. Fried oysters delicious.. And believe it or not, salt pepper wings are awesome. Owners are great partners and always friendly! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The oysters were incredibly fresh and delicious — even though I’m not an expert, I really enjoyed them! My favourites were the Shigoku and the ones from PEI, but honestly, every variety we tried was great. Definitely coming back again! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Price per person: CA$40–50

We had a very disappointing experience at Oyster Express. After leaving our name, we politely asked the host a couple of times about the wait time. At first, he said it would be at least 30 minutes. Later, he changed it to at least one hour. Then, instead of being honest and consistent, he contradicted himself again and even told us we were “extremely impatient.” This was very unprofessional and disrespectful service. Customers deserve clear and honest communication, not shifting stories and rude comments. We were looking forward to trying the food here, but this treatment completely ruined our impression.

My favorite spot in the city for oysters! The staff is incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, providing excellent service. The oyster shucking skills are truly top-notch! I would rate it even higher...
