Celebrate National Oyster Day at Bar Mar Nashville with an oyster you’ve never had before! 🦪🔥

Our Nashville Hot Oyster puts a bold twist on a classic. Inspired by Nashville’s iconic hot chicken, we take fresh oysters, fry them until crisp, toss them in our signature hot chili oil and four-spice blend, and serve them with housemade tartar sauce for a bite that brings the heat with a distinctly Nashville flair.
