Reviews for B&G Oysters in Boston, MA
great place... easy walk from Backbay and Copley... you can sit indoors or outdoors... we sat inside to the right as you walk... in... a cozy corner from where you can watch all the action, and dine too... for us it was a relaxed atmosphere all around...the kitchen was not rushed so the food was very well cooked... liked the french fries and the coleslaw was NOT dripping, justperfect... the calamari appetizer was wonderful... the fish and oyster entrees were wonderful too.

I found B & Gs on a blog about the best lobster rolls in Boston, so I made a point to swing by. My favorite thing in the world... is a cute patio, which did not disappoint! The lobster roll was impeccable with a delicious side of fries. Definitely worth theorder! Read more
Service was good and polite. Disappointed with the food and atmosphere. Oysters were mediocre and we tried each kind. Clam... chowder was decent. Plates and glasses a bit spotty. Restaurant needs a deep cleaning. Atmosphere is not pleasant inside. Usedthe restroom quickly before leaving and it needs serious improvement! Read more

Great oysters and an absolutely delicious lobster roll! Would definitely love to come back! Take a look at the photos, these... are pretty large lobster rolls overflowing with lobster! You’ll have trouble keeping it all in the bread, every bite is great! Read more
As a seafood lover, B&G oysters has always been on top of my list for brunch. Recent got the chance to visit, but the overall... experience left a lot to be desired. The place initially seemed welcoming with its open kitchen concept, and it was interestingwatch the staffs shuck our oysters. Among the four types of oysters we got, Wellfleet had the best texture and a mildly sweetflavor that we enjoyed. The umami oysters were also one of our favorites with their unique aftertaste. The shrimps and the clamswere good, but the clams seemed too small for their price. The two appetizer dishes were the standouts. The fried oysters wentnicely with the tartare sauce, and the shredded lettuce helped tone down the greasiness. The calamaris were also super crispyand the spicy aioli sauce was one of the best I’ve had. Our disappointment with the meal started with the entrées. Thelobster roll was mediocre at best. With the lobster meat cut into tiny pieces, it was difficult to enjoy its flavor. The friesand the buttered toast were okay, but it certainly wasn’t worth its price. Overall, great place for fried seafood and freshoysters, but beware of the overpriced and disappointing entrées. Read more
Can't say enough good things about this place! The raw bar is consistently fresh, the wine list is diverse, and nothing beats... the ability to watch your food cooked in front of you and have it brought directly to you still piping hot. Easily top 5 bestrestaurants in Boston. Read more
