Reviews for The Local Pub and Oyster Bar in Charlottetown, PE

Great place for fresh seafood. Very nice dining room and great selection. Oysters and mussels tasted great.

They changed the closest TV to what I call the Canadian Open Men\'s Tennis, so they get 5 stars just for that. I ordered Clam... Strips with Roasted Potatoes and I thought it was a little light on the clams but they tasted good. We had Storm Chips in localbarbeque spice and dill as an appetizer, the chips were plenty to share. They were a little spicy but not too hot. My wifeordered a wonderful Beet and Roasted Chick Peas Salad. They have a nice beer selection and the service was great. The strawberryrhubarb pie was less flavorful and the filling was tighter than we prefer. All in all we had a great lunch and experience. Read more

The first time we went we got the surf & turf & the steak it was delicious! Atmosphere was amazing, I believe our servers name... was Sue, she was exceptional! She recommended the sticky date bites for dessert and they were and 10/10. The first experiencewas wonderful! We went again last night & were very said to see the steak was no long an option. I got the steak sandwich & mypartner got the seafood casserole. My steak sandwich was good but it had a soya sauce taste to it that I really wasn?texpecting, very salty. The seafood casserole was not what we were expecting, it was $23 for a bowl of potatoes, two shrimp & twoscallops, no side, lucky he did order a Caesar salad because the casserole itself was not enough & it was incrediblydisappointing for the price. I wish I was exaggerating but it was literally roasted potatoes, two shrimp & two scallops, majorlydisappointing. We got mussels to start on both visits. Again with the second time we were there, they didn?t bring us sideplates to put the shells & the mussels were quite sandy. It was a disappointing trip the second time around. Read more

Overall this was an awful experience. We came here because it always seemed busy and after eating here I have no clue as to why... it is so busy.\n\nWe were excited to try this out so we came here on our trip into town. The hostess had a bit of an attitude.People have bad days so we brushed it off. The menus looked like someone used it to wipe their hands with. Okay whatever. Weweren\'t overly thrilled with the menu selection so we decided to do appetizers instead of a main dish. We got the nachos andsweet potatoes.\n\nWe will start with the sweet potatoes. They had these gross potato chips and some flat bread. The sweetpotatoes were very bitter and were nothing like described. The nachos had the gross potato chips and the pulled pork was dry,looked like yesterday\'s pulled pork, and had a weird taste. They look like they tried to copy Bogside in Montague nachos andfailed miserably.\n\nOh yeah and we only saw our server twice. That was fun. Overall an awful experience. We won\'t be back totry it again to see if it has improved. Not worth the money. Not worth the time. I would prefer to forget this experience but asI write this I am experiencing gastrointestinal discomfort so I am sure my body won\'t let me forget. Read more

We had very a very friendly server, Kirsten. She made great recommendations and we all enjoyed our drinks and meals. The sticky... date pudding bites are to die for!!! Best I\'ve ever had. The steak sandwich was perfection and the Cajun chicken pasta was agreat take home dish for hubby. Read more

Ordered takeout and got the Surf ?n Turf. The scallops were good (although a tad on the dry side), but my main draw to for the... order was the steak which I ordered rare, but it came much closer to a blue rare, and it appears as though I was given gravyinstead of the demi. I would have given it a four star if this was a dine-in experience as mistakes do happen and it could haveeasily been corrected, but once you?re home with the meal there is literally nothing you can do about it, so it kind of ruinsthe experience that much more.

Newly big, classy, and modern restaurant in town. They have different table settings for all types of group. Fair pricing, but... the food isn\'t impressive; the seafood potato casserole isn\'t highly recommended. Friendly and professional staff Read more

I?m currently at the restaurant while giving this review and all I can say is WOW. You get Amazing service right from when you... enter the building. It?s not just your server, everyone else is really nice and accommodating. The food is A+, drink selectionis exceptional, interior is nice and cozy. I have never gotten this kind of service anywhere else in PEI. Worth it and I?mdefinitely coming back. JANET, our server was exceptional ?? Read more
