Our favourite date night spot! Best fresh oysters anywhere! Every year for Christmas we get vouchers for Pearl diver and every time we dine itโs a 10/10 experience! Food, drinks and service are always Devine! Cant wait to come back soon
Big oyster fan here. The oysters are okay. They are fresh but bit lacking a punch in departments of flavour. Texture is okay but flavour meh; not a good briny nor having other flavour palets like nutty or whatsoever. The Irish Mor or French Gillardeau are way much better. The Tasmanian ones (happy hour ones) weren't nice to eat; others like Merimbula, Appellation, Duck bay, and St. Helens were better but not part of the deal. Some are just salty, nothing else to it. Duck bay was best, but still very average compared with European ones unfortunately.
Cocktail was very good. Wine by glass was so so. Skewers were a bit salty, especially the octopus. Was attracted by the Oyster Happy Hour $2 each from 5pm to 7pm.... You pay what you get, oyster was very small, most importantly it's not chilled. Picked the non happy hour choice of oyster, taste pretty similar. So simply pick the Happy hour option if you are there for oyster. Good ambience, will return.
nice bar vibe but too hard to grab a staff member to ask for water We had $2 oysters deal. Our order was delayed. Not until I managed to get a staff to ask, our oysters came immediately that told me they had missed out our order Even condiments had been ordered with our oysters but we needed to find staff and tell them
Pleasant environment and friendly staff. Highly recommend the $2 oysters during happy hour but it might open palates and break through a floodgate! Food was top notch. My favorite of the night was the black garlic chicken and grilled octopus skewers.
