OK Oyster Bar familia!

Thank you endlessly for your patience and for pardoning our progress during our temporary closure. As you can imagine with any special project, good things take time and a little longer than anticipated!

We are absolutely thrilled to share that Phase I of the Oyster Bar Too multi-phase refresh is near completion… which means we are ready for a soft re-open!

A small portion of our dining room is still closed as they finish, but our team is eager and ready to serve you during our normal business hours (11:30-2:30 PM and 5:00-9:00 PM)!

Please come and see us and let us know what you think about our new look 👀✨!!!

— Gratefully,
Your locally-owned and family-run Oyster Bar Too

¡¡Familia Oyster Bar!!

Mil gracias por su paciencia y por perdonar nuestro progreso durante nuestro cierre temporal. Como puedes imaginar con cualquier proyecto especial, las cosas buenas toman tiempo y ¡un poco más de lo previsto!

Una pequeña parte de nuestro comedor aún está cerrada por terminar, pero nuestro equipo está ansioso y listo para servirle durante nuestro horario comercial normal.

¡¡¡Ven a vernos y cuéntanos qué te parece nuestro nuevo “look” 👀✨!!!

We’d like to extend our sincere gratitude for the love and support this past week since the peaceful passing of our owner, father, grandfather, public servant, businessman, friend, and faithful Son of God.

We are still heartbroken but will continue to do our best and make him and his lasting legacy proud.

To our customers: THANK YOU for your patience! We recognize we have not been able to serve you in true Oyster Bar fashion, with the speedy service and ready-to-go orders we are typically known for. We are still extremely understaffed, which affects every aspect of our business operations. We appreciate your understanding and continued support and hope to return to "normalcy" very soon when we have a full staff. If you know anyone looking for employment in the restaurant industry, please send them our way! - Your Friends at The Oyster Bar Too

A nuestros clientes: ¡Gracias por su paciencia! Reconocemos que no hemos podido servirles al estilo de Oyster Bar, con un servicio rápido y pedidos listos para llevar como antes. Todavía tenemos muy poco personal, lo que afecta todos los aspectos de nuestras operaciones comerciales. Agradecemos su comprensión y apoyo continuo y esperamos volver a la "normalidad" muy pronto. Si conoce a alguien que busque empleo en la industria de los restaurantes, ¡envíenoslo! - Tus amigos en el Oyster Bar Too
