Reviews for East Bay Oyster Bar in Barrington, RI
We sat at the bar and had 3 apps, a drink, and a shared dessert. Every single thing was fabulous. Would happily go here again.
Starting with the food - we really enjoyed what we had (Scallops Cobb Salad, Fish Tacos, and fried brussel sprout app). It all... tasted very fresh & flavorful. The scallops were perfectly done, and the food alone would encourage us to re-visit them thenext time we are in Barrington. Our server was very good - she was able to answer questions, and to clarify some details aboutthe menu (i.e. their Ahi Tuna salad was actually a pasta salad, and not a greens salad), which was very much appreciated. Theyrefilled waters/beverages, and took good care of us. Wonderful little spot to go. Read more
Excellent food and drinks gave 3 stars for the hostess that did not have a clue to seat customers. She stated 1st come first... serve but all lounge tables were reserved at 4:00pm opening made no sense. I asked how to reserve high tops and she recommendedleaving a voice mail. Read more
Reservations required for the bar area? Interesting since 20 tables were open but we were not able to be seated. All tables... outside empty to...good way to lose customers. Read more
Lets start by saying that I cant believe I drove by this place for a year straight before I decided to give it a try!! And now I... cant get enough!! I have been there multiple times, and they have yet to disappoint! Food always comes out at a decent time,hot and fresh! Happy hour selection is perfect! The oysters are so fresh, and local! I recommend the oysters, wings, and tacos.The prices are fair for the amazing quality of food, but happy hour prices are well worth it! Drinks are great, made with theperfect amount of alcohol.

The Grilled Swordfish was very delicious and cooked just right. Would have liked more brussel sprouts in the veggie mix and a... lot less oil, but it was very tasty. Also, a choice of some type of starch like potato, risotto or rice was needed, especiallyconsidering the price. Others enjoyed the asparagus and kale salad topped with tuna, and the fish and chips, which was enormousand could easily be shared by 2 people. The private room was perfect for our small gathering of 8. Our server, Kayla, wasamazing! Thank you!! Read more
Oysters and little necks are so fresh they taste like they grabbed them right out of the ocean. Wonderful cocktails. Almost... when the patriots are on... but this is the perfect place to watch, eat, and drink! Read more
Customer Beware --- we had a reservation for party 12 on Nov 5, 2022 @ 6:30pm. The restaurant was closed when we arrived for our... dinner. The restaurant was able to confirm the reservation on Nov 3 but not able to call us to advise the restaurant was closedSaturday. We had to locate another restaurant that can accept a large part of 12 -- our family was coming from CT and Boston toattend the dinner. Again, I have made multiple calls to the restaurant and advise Ryan (manager) would call us back and Nov 16-- still no response. As a customer, waiting to see if James Harris or Daniel Teodoro will make a call to their customer forPOOR SERVICE. It was a terrible experience having to explain to family that we did not receive any notification on theclosing. How do we continue to do business with POOR service. Antonio Read more
