An excellent way to spend time on the weekend. Mark has done a fabulous job upgrading Jolly Oyster. Well done! The long awaited... bar is finally here! Bubbly and Kumamoto oysters with Jolly Oysters ?secret? Thai sauce will have you craving the combinationwhen you least expect it. Another personal favorite is their grilled oysters. I recommend the sampler platter. Try them all!When you are done, have fun adding your oyster scrap pile to the collection. It?s a fantastic experience! Read more
They used to have a store near my hone in GARDENA but unfortunately closed down. So now I come to this location every time on my... way to Santa Barbara. They just got their liquor license last week and now serving beer and wine at the location. But you canstill bring your own and have a picnic. Love love love their Kumamoto Oysters. Never can have enough ?????????? Read more

Finally made it here on a Sunday morning. Glad we came here for some lunch! No pictures of the food we had, but everything was... great We had two types of oysters. We had ceviche. We had fried oysters. We brought our own beer. We stayed over an hour sowe paid $10 to park. The parking voucher is good for an hour. Read more
Situated in a beach side state park, the unique location is the star of the show! You?ll find reasonably priced seafood served... out of two food trucks. Fresh oysters in all forms (baked, fried, and raw) are the highlight. Uni is not always available! Read more
Awesome oysters, but a little pricy for what you get. Recommended if you want to taste a true piece of Ventura.
The oysters here are to die for. The Kamakura ones were the best out of all the ones we?ve ordered; they were slightly sweet and... had a lovely aftertaste. The scallop ceviche was also very delicious, but it is quite expensive for the price. Honestly, thebaked oysters were my least favorite since the saltiness of the broth and other sauces overpowered the taste of the oyster.Beyond that, the menu and staff were excellent. Read more
