Select Oyster Bar

Good light seafood options. Their tuna tartare flavorful with a little touch of avocado at the bottom. I could finish 2 orders myself! Oysters are fresh, the vinegar delicious and matches well with the oysters. Both fish options, Arctic Char and Halibut are good just a matter of which fish you prefer. Can skip the lobster salad, most of my group were not fond of it due to the “flowery” flavor on the vinegrette used.

Second time here... and the food is as good as I remember came last in Dec 2021... We were 30 minutes early and they were kind enough to seat us...we started with oysters... The Maine ones are sweeter while the Massachusetts ones are saltier but all really REALLY good - had to do a repeat of Norumbroga! For mains had the sea-bream and ceviche. All awesome. Note the sea-bream is served whole with bones but the taste is exquisite. For drinks, has the pomegranate with lemon as well as the ginger habanero drink. Impeccable service, very friendly people.

First time Sept 2023 Octopus was ok too heavy on the dressing Beet salad was good Mussels were the best! The mussels were ok but the broth was absolutely delicious The bisque was high on fish and shell fish the broth was very lame compared to the broth from the mussels Service at the bar was good

One of the best meals I’ve had in Boston. Creative dishes, super fresh seafood, and expert execution. Make reservations and go out of your way to check it out, Select is worth itFood: 5/5

Ordered: Oysters & the Swordfish Cost: $70 Thoughts: Great atmosphere, good oysters, and an incredible blend of flavors in the swordfish.. nothing too overbearing. Would definitely recommend, but it is a little pricy for what you get.

Highly recommend you come here. Fresh and delicious seafood! The Spanish Octopus was so good, we had to order it twice!Food: 5/5

This cute upscale restaurant gets very busy very quickly after 5 o’clock, so I would recommend making reservations even if you are a small party. The only reason why I attached the bill is because our waitress didn’t tell us that there was an auto pay to the F 23% didn’t tell us at the loss of over $60 and it felt like she was rushing us from the moment that we sat down The food was good & there was PLENTY of lobster in my lobbyroll but still think that $60 is a ridiculous price to not state before ordering it. The washroom downstairs is a little bit outdated, and it’s a single gender neutral washroom so I can be lined up sometimes

Food is fresh and delicious, but overpriced for the amount of food that you're actually getting. Totally understand that seafood is expensive, but it's frustrating to spend nearly $100pp and still not be entirely full after the meal. Waitress/bartender was really nice and accommodating. Host/sit down process is abysmally bad though. They have a waiter pulling double duty as host, which means you could be waiting 15-20 minutes during peak time even if you have a reservation. Please hire more people. You could tell how understaffed the restaurant was. Atmosphere is lively, but can be quite cramped depending on how sensitive you are with your personal space.

We did a reservation. The place is nice inside, however what I liked the most are the tables outside and I was able to come with my puppy. We ordered oysters, pulp and beet salad. All was just delicious! Oysters extremely fresh and the pulp had an unique taste. You will feel welcomed and very well served by your waitress. They are very kind, fun and provide high service. I regret that they do not have coffee nor dessert. Food was a great experience but I just like the whole package. 100% recommended.

Food is outstanding, we ate many oysters. Good experience overall but a few complaints: 1 We made reservations but were forced to sit at the bar instead of allowed a table. 2 A 3% covid operations fee is added to the total bill. The prices are already high and the restaurant is cramped. To the restaurant: If you're not satisfied with your margins you could increase your price instead of the surprise fee. With that being said, I will definitely be back because the food is top notch.
