Review Summary

La Boîte aux Huîtres is described across reviews as a consistently fresh oyster destination with oysters shucked on the spot and a wide, distinct selection that runs from salty and briny to creamy and buttery. The atmosphere is welcoming and unpretentious, with staff described as friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful, making the experience enjoyable and informative for first timers and oyster lovers alike. Pricing is considered reasonable for the quality, and several reviewers highlight the chance to sample different varieties via combos such as Slurp Slurp Express and Tour du Monde. Many readers say they would return, with some calling it a must visit and the best oyster experience in town, appreciating local selections and the opportunity to learn about each oyster. A few minor notes include a raspberry mignonette that was only okay and a cocktail sauce that could use more flavor, plus one comment about clearer counter guidance, yet none of these detract from the overall impression of freshness, variety, and attentive service.

Suite à certaines recommandations, j'ai commandé 2 douzaines de Chebooktoosk , & à ma grande surprise le calibre étais RIDICULE .
Certaines huîtres étaient presque vide tellement c'était minuscule ….
Payer 80$ pour cela est honteux .
Si vous vendez ce calibre trés petit dites le au clients pour un minimum de transparence .

& pour répondre à votre commentaire : j'ai l'habitude de manger divers calibre de huîtres mais permettez moi de préciser que ça n'a rien à voir avec des 3' . Certaines étaient presque vides . & effectivement la taille peut varier mais ma commande toutes les huîtres étaient très petites . Fruit du hasard ou malchance ?
J'espère que mon feed-back sera constructif !

Great & simple. More oysters than the ocean (seriously, must be 10+ varietals.) We got the chef's choice package & just told them we wanted something briney. Was about $3CAD per oyster & came with sauces. Highly recommend if you like oysters.

It was a very crowded raw oyster bar on the corner of the public market. I had the slurp & slurp express & was impressed with the quality & flavours. Although I’m not sure if it was worth $18, I still enjoyed the oysters & recommend this place to anyone visiting the public market!
