The food was delicious! It's an upscale place, so you spend a little more, but it was worth it! I had the maple bourbon grilled Mahi, and a friend had the street corn okra. I was with a group of friends, and everyone enjoyed the food and atmosphere.
Annabelle, the staff, and the food were outstanding for our daughter's rehearsal dinner recently. We chose a buffet dinner of short ribs and the maple bourbon mahi, with the asparagus and mashed potatoes. The short ribs were melt in your mouth and the mahi was also outstanding. I highly recommend the Oyster Bar for your next private gathering.
Yes you want to eat here. That is all you really need to know! The Seared Diver Scallops with wild mushroom risotto and mushroom broth was outstanding. The Pei Mussels were a great choice as an appetizer. I highly recommend the banana pudding desert with salted caramel butter pecan ice cream. Treat yourself!
Wow what a great experience we had here for lunch and dinner. The oysters were wonderful, the okra appetizer was outstanding in the oyster poboy was excellent. Second day had the tuna tartar and also dessert, yum!!! Our servers Renee and Kendra were both terrific, we will be back.
Today, I stopped in Park Avenue Oyster Bar for their recently added Saturday brunch, and the food and atmosphere did not disappoint. I ordered the Crab Cake Benedict plus a side of one sweet potato pancake (usually comes w/ two). First, the crab Benedict was perfection—two delicately poached eggs atop light, fluffy crab cakes with asparagus tips on two halves of a scratch made biscuit. I ate every morsel. And then the SWEET POTATO PANCAKE!!! Served with maple pecan butter, house made whip cream, and REAL maple syrup, the Sweet Potato Pancake is absolute decadence and deliciousness I can’t wait to try more from this menu. I will be back again soon. Park Avenue Oyster Bar serves brunch Saturday & Sunday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
My hubby and I decided to have dinner here for my birthday, and it was a great experience. We were greeted promptly at the door by the host, and seated right away. Our server was friendly and efficient without hovering over us. The food was amazing! We both had Berry Salads to start...mixed greens loaded with strawberries, blackberries, blueberries and cranberries, candied pecans and a nice vinaigrette. Then, for an appetizer, we tried the Shrimp Corn Dogs. Perfectly cooked shrimp wrapped in corndog batter and fried to pefection. Served with a Thai slaw and a smear of a nice, slightly spicy sauce. For dinner, my hubby chose the Combination Seafood platter....Fried flounder, shrimp and oysters with handcut fries, blue cheese cole slaw and seafood sauces. I had the Grilled Mahi with maple-bourbon glaze, pork belly, mashed sweet potatoes and wilted spinach. Everything was exceptional, and the prices were very reasonable for this area. When my hubby mentioned to the server that it was my birthday, she surprised me with a yummy Key Lime pie dessert on the house. The atmosphere was pleasant, quiet music in the background, in a well-decorated main room. They also have an upstairs area with live music on weekends, and space for events and larger groups. Overall, one of our best meal experiences in Aiken. We will definitely be back.
The food was phenomenal. I would’ve licked my plate if the place weren’t so fancy. I had the maple bourbon Mahi. The pork belly is what sold me on it and it did not disappoint. The server was amazing; attentive but not bothersome. Gave it four stars for atmosphere only bc I felt the table was too big for two and I was too far away from my friend. However, we still had a great time and I don’t think all of the tables are like that.
Had a great Christmas Eve dinner with my parents. We got the special (butter poached Halibut), fried seafood platter, and oysters. can’t wait to come back.
