O'Shucks Oyster Bar & Grill - Wildwood, Florida

Ryan Belom

I really enjoy small hole in the wall places so I was delighted to happen across this oyster bar on our way down to Orlando. While the service and mom-and-pop vibe were both top notch, most of the food was just not it. I will say they did live up to their namesake, the oysters were huge, fresh, and tasty. Everything else fell quite short — but most egregious were the “blackened” scallops. First time I’ve paid $25 for a plate of anything and left it mostly untouched when we took our leave. The scallops were very faintly dusted with blackened seasoning, but were majorly flavorless outside of an off putting “not fresh” taste, overcooked, and rubbery. My wife barely touched her (frozen) chicken tenders, not a fan at all.

I want to emphasize our server was great, very sweet lady who was attentive and super pleasant. Stick to the oysters and you’ll likely have a more enjoyable meal than I did.

Our group ordered multiple items and had to buy of each. Their raw oysters are $1.50 each market price as of the date of this post. I always eat the first one with no lemon, cocktail sauce, horseradish, or cracker to determine the freshness and these were perfectly fresh with no fishy flavor. Exceptionally fresh and tasted like the ocean. The fried shrimp PoBoy was good. The french fries were my personal favorite type that have the crispy outside with a bit of breading so I definitely recommend them. They had the Friday fish fry and the fish's batter was very light and the fish flavor was great. Fast service from the two waitresses and I believe one's name was Bri? They both worked together and checked up on you every time they pass by. If you want to get under one of the waitresses skin be sure to order a water with no ice and then don't drink it until the end of the meal lol inside joke so if she reads this she might remember us. We sat on the back patio and there was plenty of room. Definitely recommended if you want fresh oysters and we'll be back the next time we visit family there!

LOOKS ARE DECEIVING- the food is so delicious, it was so good I forgot to keep taking pictures!!

A group of 7 we came in at lunch (11:30) and were seated right away! The service was top notch… we had a bucket of raw oysters with all the fixings, clam chowder, fried fish sandwiches, chili cheese hotdog, and 3 Philly cheese steaks.

If you love seafood you MUST give this place a try! Highly Recommend. We drive 45 minutes to get here.

We absolutely love this place! The food is always perfect, the service is always friendly. It’s got such a good down home feel to this place.
My personal favorite is the fried oysters… never disappointed and the market price is so reasonable. Fried shrimp also a winner. Friends love the raw oysters, always fresh.

First the positive. The Waitresses were very friendly, courteous, helpful and checked on us frequently. Atmosphere was as expected . We liked it . The dollar beers were nice an cold . The shrimp was excellent . Now the bad news.
The oysters were very,very gritty almost to the point of taking them back. They were large oysters,which was good, but not that tasty and again very gritty like they were never rinsed off. The clams were even worse . Clumps of nasty grit in the small clams . I should have returned them but again I didn't. The clams that had less grit were pretty tasty. I don't think the clams were rinsed off at all. But again prob the gritteous
shellfish I ever had .We did tell the Waitress and she said ' I'll let them know.' Such a disappointment and pretty expensive . We will not return .

If you like finding interesting dive restaurants, put this one at the top of your list. Affordable great food. Not a lot of tables inside but there is outdoor seating. Might be a wait to be seated. We sat at the bar which gives us a front row seat to watching the oysters being shucked. So good. We also ordered the wings and we loved their homemade O’Shucks wings sauce. Super friendly and attentive staff. Our second visit of many visits to come.

Went there for dinner last night with friends. Everyone LOVED there food

Raw oysters were great at 12.99 a dozen
Loved the medium wings and also the Parmesan garlic wings.

Friend got the sirloin steak and said it was astounding

Awesome hole in the wall. Not much to look at from the list side but service was great and food was awesome

We stopped here when staying nearby & wow, this place is a little gem. They had a few groups waiting outside to be seated, but since there were only 2 of us, we were able to get seats at the bar without a wait. The place was busy & all of the staff was hustling around taking care of business. We had 1 gal waiting on us, but at least 2 others checked in on us to see if we needed anything. The prices were very reasonable and the food was delicious. We split a pitcher of beer, fried mushrooms, a bucket of steamed oysters, & a side salad & left full & satisfied. We ordered a piece of key lime pie & took it with us (yum). The fried mushrooms were absolutely the best I've ever had.
