King Street Oyster - Potomac

The ambiance and atmosphere are fantastic, and the outdoor seating is wonderful. The staff is friendly, and the food is enjoyable as well. It's a casual spot that's perfect for relaxing with friends or family! Edit: I'm updating my review to 4 stars because the food wasn't quite as good as it was on my last visit. However, our waitress was incredibly kind and friendly. Despite the place being very crowded and her forgetting a couple of items, she still provided great service.

What an incredible restaurant! They offer a fantastic variety of oysters at unbeatable prices. The beer selection is also impressive, and the ceviche is truly unique—though it could use a touch more lemon, it’s still delicious. There’s plenty of outdoor seating, but I really enjoyed sitting at the bar where the bartender was attentive and great to chat with. I would definitely return, and I highly recommend you give it a try when you have the chance; it’s well worth it!

The service was absolutely terrible. I arrived on time for my reservation and was seated immediately. However, I had to wait 20 minutes before my server came over and brought me water. I was sitting on the outdoor patio in the hot sun, which made the wait even more uncomfortable. I ordered charbroiled oysters and a crab cake sandwich with a side of mac and cheese. The oysters were just mediocre, and the mac and cheese was downright awful. The crab cake sandwich could have been good if it hadn’t been served cold—there's no way it was made fresh to order. To top it all off, after my food arrived, my server never returned to check if I needed anything. The service was wrapped up by what looked like a manager or host, but it did not improve my experience. Overall, it was just unacceptable!

My husband and I come here at least 3 times a week and the staff know us know lol. We love this restaurant so much! The wings are perfect! The brussel sprout salad with grilled shrimp is also one of our faves. My husband also loves their oyster rockefeller, and their raw oysters. The people are nice and the atmosphere is great! I will take more pictures next time we go, which will likely be in a few days!Wheelchair accessibility: This is a wheelchair accessible restaurant.

The food was exceptional, and the service was warm and welcoming from everyone.
