Merchant Oyster Co.

"The food was a bit too salty, but the service was good. If you’re looking for drinks and seafood in Pittsburgh, you can still go there. Unfortunately, Pittsburgh doesn’t have many good seafood options."

"The boil was salty and honestly i don’t know what they were trying to do. Complete waste - they just poured a ton of old bay on it and served it to me with no butter or anything. The raw oysters seemed fresh and if i go back I’d only eat oysters. Everything besides the oysters tasted as if it was made in an easy baked oven."

"Really love this place so much the service is always so great and the food is phenomenal. A little disappointed in the size of the hot lobster roll today. My girlfriend and I usually split one and one other entree but the roll today was only about 4 inches long for $28.. but honestly other than that love how fresh everything tastes and love their bar program. Really great job as always"

"Went with 3 guys on Friday night and got seated right away without waiting. We were lucky because the place filled out quickly afterwards. I’d strongly recommend trying both their raw and baked oysters. They are both fantastic. The raw oysters was fresh and delectable with the variety of sauces they provided. We had multiple lobster rolls (they were amazing). Total came out to be around $60 per person but we were fully satisfied."

"Had spinach, artichoke, crab dip with a lobster roll! The bread is toasted and soft at the same time, doesn't scrape your mouth. Truly and honestly, best artichoke dip I ever had. Lobster was cooked to perfection and served hot! Oysters are great, just get there early if you want certain flavors, because they might run out."
