Beautiful view on Bayou Texar. We were made to feel welcome from the time we walked in the door until we finished our banana pudding and paid our bill. Food was fresh and perfectly cooked. Raw oysters were out of this world. Servers were so nice and helpful recommending meals. Did I mention how GOOD the raw oysters were?? I... more

Don't get me wrong, it was not terrible. While it was not like prison food, the folks working there did have the bored and desprate look of inmates. This is a place where they are going through the motions, but have lost the zest for excellence that a good place must have. The oysters were good, probably from the Fla.... more

For 25 years, this was my favorite spot for artery clogging but heaven to taste beer battered shrimp. You can still make up your own cocktail sauce with fixins on the table. However, the food has changed. I took friends from out of town there last week for a treat and felt let down instead. The shrimp were greasy, the... more

I live in Pensacola and eat lunch and dinner here at least once a week and have never been disappointed. The food is simple, the range is limited, but what they do, they do superbly. Their oysters, shrimp and especially grouper are beyond compare. Try a grilled grouper sandwich with fries and slaw, and watch the mullet jumping in the... more

This is by far my favorite seafood restaurant in Pensacola, the oysters are delicious. I am not a local but I travel a lot and I always make a point of stopping at the Marina Oyster Barn at least once during my trips to Pensacola. Get a dozen oysters and a grouper sandwich (ask for it Dale's way). more

I went to the Oyster Barn the day after Thanksgiving 2007. I've visited Pensacola a number of times and always include a trip to this restaurant. It's a pretty basic place: Good seafood at a decent price. It's a small place frequented by locals. The staff seems to know many of the customers and it has a kind of "clique-ish"... more

I can not believe the positive comments about this place. I did not have a good meal here. I was served the worst meal ever at this place. The seafood was old , not fresh. Will not go there again. more

I have been a resident of Pensacola for the past 56 yrs. My wife and I visted the Marina Oyster Barn today April 11, 2007. This was not good seafood!!! The shrimp was old, the crab claws were nasty, the hush puppies were hard and greasey. Overall probably the worst seafood platter I have ever had. I am not just... more
