“The restaurant is very small with every table having a great view of the kitchen.”
“The chocloate beer cake was good but the vanilla bean panna cotta was delicious!”
“cocktails/beer. Since this event was all about oysters, I can't give a real opinion on the full menu (though if you check out their Website it is a serious eyefull of yum).”
“Watching the kitchen as you sit at the bar and enjoy your wine and food.”

Awesome lobster roll!. ON our last day in boston, and in search for a great lobster roll, my bf and I decided to look up the best place for a lobster roll in boston. Sure enough, b & g oysters came up so we went. We got seated pretty quickly at the bar and orders the steamed mussels and lobster roll and some oysters. Everything was so good, I will def make sure to keep this place in mind when I come back to Boston. Not to mention that the wine was really good too; I recommend the pino blanc! I really wish there was a b & g oysters in nyc!…
Summery Slurrrp.
The oysters here are the best in town; the variety, the perfect presentation, the briny freshness. The local cherrystones are also a treat. The servers know their product and manage to navigate the
often crowded small space without making you feel rushed. In season try to get a seat on the patio.
The wine list is well matched to the food and has a wide price range.
If raw seafood is not your thing, the Fried Ipwich clams are a local delicacy brought to a new level with crispy batter fried perfectly. Or try the Maine lobster roll which will make you feel like you spent a day at the beach in Bar Harbor.…
great oysters & seafood in general!. So I came here for the B&G Oyster Invitational two weekends ago (won tickets courtesy of Citysearch!) and it was fantastic. The space was perfect, though quickly packed and crowded, since most of the event was held outdoors and it was a gorgeous 80-degree day out. Inside is set up like a classy bar scene, where the food is all cooked right in front of you while you sip on cocktails/beer. Since this event was all about oysters, I can't give a real opinion on the full menu (though if you check out their Website it is a serious eyefull of yum). However I will say that their fresh as well as their fried oysters are absolutely delicious, and same for their fried Ipswitch clams and fried Point Judith calamari. Overall I would say that this place is definitely worth coming back to try an actual meal at (I'd say more of a lunch place or a casual dinner, since the place does run a little small).…
Whole meal was delicious!. My guy & I tried B&G for the first time on Sunday. The lobster bisque was tasty (not too rich, no lobster pieces though). The fish sandwich was excellent (breading was light, fresh flaky fish tended to keep falling out of the too big bun) right down to the shoe string fries & crispy sweet pickles on the side. The swordfish saltimbocca was perfect - portion on the smaller side but every bite was flavorful. The chocloate beer cake was good but the vanilla bean panna cotta was delicious! We also had half a dozen Pemaquid oysters that were super fresh - love that salt water flavor! Would've had a dozen (or more) if they weren't $2.65 per oyster though... Only complaint was the rolls that were like shoe leather - tough to tear apart & had to be soaked in the olive oil to be chewable. Service was good, enjoyed sitting at the bar watching all the action. Was extremely busy on a Sunday afternoon but we didn't feel crowded or rushed. Overall had a great experience - will definitely go back!…
Fantastic. The waitress we had was incredible! Every suggestion she made was spot on! Lobster roll... perfect! Oyster selection was as good as have ever seen.
