Where to Shuck Oysters at The Wharf

October 23, 2024

Let’s get shucking! Wild oysters are always best in months ending in "r", so now that we're in season, we’ve put together a list of the best places to slurp them up at The Wharf:

🦪 Hank’s Oyster Bar – Order up a rotating variety of a ½ dozen oysters

🦪 Kaliwa – The Southeast Asian-inspired restaurant offers local oysters with a banana cocktail sauce and chili oil

🦪 The Grill – Order up 6 or 12 oysters on the half shell with a smoky-tomato cocktail sauce and cucumber-champagne mignonette

🦪 Rappahannock Oyster Bar – Order from the raw bar and slurp down Rappahannock River Oysters, Rochambeau Oysters or Olde Salt Oysters

🦪 Del Mar – Order East Coast or West Coast Oysters for a ½ dozen or full dozen

🦪 Jessie Taylor Seafood – The Municipal Fish Market vendor offers raw Chincoteague and Bay Oysters
