Great restaurant in downtown austin. The oyster were great and so fresh. We got a dozen and was able to try all 6 type of oysters they had to offers. They were all really good but a couple of them stood up. The clam chowder was good even tho the bowl seem small but great flavor. The SEAFOOD TAGLIATELLE was a great dish and was so glad to get it. The shrimp were huge and they were not stingy with them as well with the claws and mussels. That was the highlight of our meal aftee the oyster. While eating seafood you can't pass up a Keylime pie and it did not disappointed. It was a huge slice and wasn't able to eat it all but I would came back just for that and sit at the bar for it.

Overall: 4.3/5 [dine in] Happy hour runs all day on Mondays which is a great deal. Just know that they require a credit card to make a reservation and automatically add 20% gratuity for large groups. Our server Nathan was phenomenal. They also had a promotion where you sign up for their newsletter and get half a dozen oysters for free, and we got to try one of each which was a nice touch. One small hiccup was that my friend received a cup of chowder instead of the bowl she ordered. She didn't notice until our other friend's bowl arrived and it was noticeably bigger. They apologized and brought her a bowl right away which we appreciated. Sound and Spirit Margarita ($8 MM): This was the only margarita half off for the month of May. I thought it was pretty good and I really liked the blood orange foam. My husband got a glass of Averaen Pinot Noir ($8 HH) and the Loveblock Sauvignon Blanc ($7.50 HH). Both were okay but honestly you can find better wine at Costco for less. Wagyu Slider ($5 HH per slider): A basic slider but great as a starter. The wagyu patty was juicy and flavorful. Salmon Dip ($6 HH): A generous portion of Boursin cheese and hot smoked salmon with really crispy chips. We had a lot of cheese leftover though. Shrimp and Lobster Roll ($26): Really good and probably one of the best cold lobster rolls we have had in a long time. They did not skimp on the seafood and the fries were thin and crispy. The portion was huge and we still had leftovers. Meal type: Dinner Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We had a wonderful breakfast this morning at Skipjack Oyster. We had 2 of their fresh pressed juice drinks along with the egg white spinach and mushroom omelette and the breakfast grain bowl. The food was absolutely delicious!! David took great care of us! We are already looking forward to our next visit. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Meal type: Breakfast
