Mission Street Oyster Bar & Seafood Restaurant

We came here for some quick bytes of oyster while we waited for a show to start right across the street. The oyster shooter was delicious, it's with a bloody mary mix which is my favorite. I think next time I am going to specify the oyster to put in, the oyster that was in the shooter had a very salty after taste (we think it was the miyagi). The other half open oysters are really good as well. Their service was fast and the ambiance was great. Perfect for a date night or hanging out with friends. Definitely coming back!

Oysters and Prosecco! Delicious and not crowded right at 12pm.Service was great as well, a little cold in the restaurant, but ensures the oysters are kept cold!

Visited here on a Saturday with reservations during lunch time, but reservations weren't necessarily needed since there was plenty of seating. Note - it is all day oyster happy hour and there are different categories of oysters, with regular oysters being $2.50/half shell and premium being $3.50/half shell. The Kumamoto, shigoku, and Kushi were our faves. We tried the blue point oysters and they were huge and flavorless. The garlic bread is just divine and I would recommend as it pairs well with the clam chowder, steamed shellfish combination broth, or even as a standalone. The clam chowder was also good without being overly fishy in taste. The steamed shellfish combo was also great to have to share and the broth combined with the garlic bread was just chef's kiss. The tomato based broth paired with the steamed shellfish was an exquisite combination. The Peruvian ceviche paired with the taro chips were a nice addition as well. The ceviche seemed fresh and a nice change in texture. Overall, I would recommend this place for your next oyster craving. Like other reviews have noted, other than the oysters, the prices are a bit high. But it is worth it in my books. Note - parking is a little difficult to find in the area, so I'd make sure to leave extra time to find sufficient parking.

First time here... Really good seafood spot.. Wasn't crowded for lunch.. Plenty of specials and options on the menu and for lunch time.. Oysters were fresh and tasted good.. I had them raw and order of the fried ones as well... The clam chowder was good, not too thick just right with good flavor... Customers service was good, ambience was nice and chill... I will come back to this place again! Good times and experience.

Good food, fast service, chill environment. My friend and I came here on a Friday for lunch and were the only people there (not generally a good sign) but I was pleasantly surprised. The food was good, champagne was cold, and the oysters were fresh. It's a cute little place and parking wasn't bad, we parked around the corner on the street. I ordered the crab cakes as well and they were yummy. Will def be back!

Had I stuck to only the oysters, this spot would have been 5 stars but the other dishes were quite expensive and lackluster. They had all day happy hour deals so it's worthwhile to visit at any time. We came in without a reservation and were able to nab a spot. Service was incredibly fast and friendly. Notably there was a surcharge for credit so consider bringing cash. Happy hour oysters were priced at $2.50 each and included Miyagi, Fannyboy, Summerset, Steamboat, and Sanctuary. I found the descriptions on the board to be accurate to the taste of each oyster. Miyagi was my favorite given the light, briny taste. Fannyboy had a smelly aftertaste so it was my least favorite. Summerset was slightly creamy and sweet. Steamboat was the creamiest of the bunch. Sanctuary had the least flavor but it was the meatiest. *Sangria: sweet and paired well with the oysters. Similarly on the happy hour menu for $9. *Clam Chowder: incredibly bland and barely had any clams or potatoes. On the watery side and should have come with bread or crackers. *Ceviche Mixto: the white fish, shrimp and octopus were all tender but there was minimal flavor. We added on taro chips for another $4. The leche de Tigre had mild citrus flavor so the seafood was over powered by the chips. The chips were crispy and earthy but I wouldn't pay extra to not taste the main component. I would return for just the oysters given the variety and quality. However, the other dishes left more to desire in terms of flavors and portion sizes.

All day happy hour??? Probably the best place to get your oyster fix without breaking the bank. We tried two of each oyster they had available along with their chowder and sangria. The chowder was okay, a bit too runny for my taste. Definitely worth trying out if you love oysters.

Happy hour (HH) is where it's at! Freshly shucked oysters and a glass of rosé. Sign me up!HH oysters. I have to admit that I enjoyed the HH oysters over the premium (non HH). The HH oysters were more creamy, full, sweet and briny. As opposed to the non HH were tiny and bland. I don't know it just didn't taste briny at all. My only complaint was that my oysters had shards of shell everywhere - merp.I went for the fish and chips because how can you not? That salt and vinegar combo is perfection. I actually was pretty impressed that the fish didn't taste like it was frozen. My friend went for San Francisco's own cioppino - I didn't try it, but it did look bomb. The atmosphere was kinda dry - I feel like this is the first establishment I've been to that didn't have music playing in the background, isn't that weird? I guess not if awkward silence is something you're into. The service was pretty standard and nothing too crazy or stands out that warrants a raving review or dock in points.

I've gone here a couple times and most recent during the October heat wave. The raw oysters were so fresh and tasty despite the swelteringI love that they have a chalkboard with the wide variety of local and nearby state options including a mini taste description of each raw oyster. They have a happy hour witj $ 2.50 per reg oyster, $3.50 for premium. Thats not even the best part. Although the grilled Rockefeller oysters are not on happy hour, they are soooooooo delicious and the closests you're going to get to New Orleans chargrilled oysters like from Drago's in the bay. I haven't found anything remotely close other than doing it at home. Pair the garlic bread with the Rockefeller oysters and a glass of Sangria and be ready to experience a flavor explosion. Don't say I didn't warn you. Dreaming about theses oysters until next time!

So I came here for a happy hour oyster special and was not disappointed. At 2.50/ea it was not a bad deal. The service was prompt, the vibe was good, the music was great, & the oysters were great too. The only thing I didn't like was $5 for a can of soda but besides that, all good. This might be my go to spot for oysters now as it's more reasonable than many other places. Recommend trying this!
