Reviews for Elm Street Oyster House in Greenwich, CT
Nice environment, good service, totally pedestrian menu. Not bad for taking Mom out to dinner, unless Mom is a food critic.
This could have been 5stars because the food is phenomenal and so far consistent. But the woman manager is so moody--sometimes... she's nice and warm but at times its scary to talk/ask her anything Read more
We had a great meal and very attentive service. We were greeted and seated immediately. The glass of Gruner arrived crisp and... cold just like I like it and my husband's IPA also arrived the same. The dozen west coast oysters had labels by them, I havenever seen that and think it is so clever. The New England chowder was very hearty and who doesn't love an iceberg wedge and itcame chopped! At this point it was time for another glass of wine for me and again it arrived so cold and a beautiful pour size.There were special tacos on the menu of the day which were so good. Another clever specialty Elm Street offers is - they have alist of fish, I chose bronzino, and you can have the chef prepare it in a variety of ways. For example scampi or maple bbq, thelist is very thorough. Lastly we had the ravioli with shrimp. Saturday nights are always challenging to a restaurant staff andElm Street shone! Read more
Small vibrant place but I only got to sample a few dishes. Popcorn chicken and peppers was mostly peppers and seafood chili was... very tomato sweet without much character. Caesar salad was very good. Shrimp were very good. I like the open kitchen and smallbar vibe. I'm be back and adjust accordingly... Read more
My favorite is Seafood Paella. Space can be a bit tight but this is one of the local hang out place. We also love to sit by the... bar as well. We come to this place numerous time and never got disappointed. Read more
I would recommend that you load up on you bp medicine before you come here because the salt content of the food will drive up... your bp and probably completely dehydrate you. I always say that when you have to add so much salt to your food, you’retrying to hide something. We called it done after some apps because we just couldn’t stand any more salt. At least I can crossthis place off the list. Read more
Great space for a small gathering of 4-6 people or less. Visited on Sunday around 12:30 and there was a small crowd but it got... busier as more people filtered in after. I ordered oysters which tasted pretty fresh, and for my entree, the shrimp with garlicmashed potatoes and broccoli rabe. The mashed potatoes is actually one of the best I've ever had! ???? I would visit the againjust for that, haha. My husband ordered fish which was great and the buffalo shrimp which was pretty pricey as there were 3shrimp for the small price of $20 ????. Apart from the slow service, the dining experience was great and we would definitelyreturn. Read more
My husband and I stopped in here for lunch today and were beyond disappointed. The servers were pleasant and the food was fine,... but the moment we sat down we were rushed beyond belief. We sat at 11:50, ordered appetizers and entrées and were cashed out by12:15. When I saw our entrées coming out less than 3 minutes after we ordered them, I was shocked. At least give the illusionthat you are preparing my food with time and care. We weren’t even given the opportunity to order a second glass of wine. Fora relaxing experience, spend your money elsewhere. Read more
