    The best seafood we have ever had! The oysters and scallops were delicious. The staff, including the owner, were very friendly and welcoming. We had excellent service and will definitely be back.

    You have to get the lobster roll and the oysters. They grow their own oysters so always fresh & delicious and they pack the lobster into that roll

    Mah-Too-Nuck is a great RI experience. White chowder, bourbon oysters, lobster roll were fantastic. Calamari had very dense breading but the style was nice. Raw oysters are small but great flavor.

    This is my second time there, and I had the stuffed lobster this time. It was amazing! The outside view by the water is so romantic. I definitely will be going back again with my significant other.

    This place is simply AMAZING. Awesome food. Oysters out of this world. Lobster roll was huge. Fries hand cut delicious. Swordfish served with fresh veggies from garden. Desserts homemade by owners mom

    This place can get very crowded with a long wait, but that's what happens when you mix amazing food and a beautiful setting. Try the oysters, pesto penne, lobster roll, mussels - heck it's all good!

    Gorgeous view of the water, oysters were very tasty. Get the RI chowder, dynamite. Service was personable and relaxed. Okay beer list. There's valet parking so bring cash to tip.

    Dinner and a show, anyone? Watch fishermen collect oysters they’ve farmed from Potter Pond as you take down a giant lobster sandwich on a split-top roll. Read more

    Tha food was delicious and I am so happy with it. I think it is a good family dinner place. But it was very crowded. We were seated right away.

    Perry has expanded his haven of seafood perfection by adding a second floor. His local oysters are second to none.

    What else do you do at an oyster bar besides try the oysters! The oysters are amazing, along with the lobster roll and tuna tartar tacos

    What's good here? Everything. Highlights; oysters, stuffies, stuffed lobster, little necks and chorizo, beet and goat cheese salad. Skip the rose.

    Order the Oysters Trio and a side of hand-cut fries. Eat the oysters, and then use the fries to sop up the amazingness left on the shells.

    Love the grilled oysters. If you like calamari, they have a really nice preparation with capers and arugula. For oysters on the half shell, make sure the house oysters are on your list!

    I love this place, let me say that first. The stuffie tho was "ehn"- lot of fresh bread crumb, and no clam or sausage to speak of at all. Not worth $3.95. Save the space for oysters!!!

    Good, but flies flying all around inside; and waitress Naomi will single you out by asking only you and not your date for ID. Tactless. I'm in my 30's-I don't mind being asked, but don't single out!

    The littlenecks with chourico is a great appetizer. Linguine and clams is my personal favorite entree. Get there before 5:30 in the summer if you don't want to wait.

    Of course you'll get oysters--but definitely leave room for the chocolate bread pudding for dessert!
