Rodney’s Oyster House

Love this place! Absolute best seafood in Toronto. Always fresh and never disappoints! Their oysters are definitely a go to, we tried the “Indian Cove” tonight and wow. They were phenomenal! Never had a deep oyster as such with so much juice inside, oh my. Going back for more tomorrow! The Branzino fish was also cooked amazing, pan seared yet still so crispy! Their whole menu is just a must try. Food is 5 star and so is the service.

Rodney's Oyster Bar in Toronto is, without a doubt, the best oyster joint in Canada! The location is prime, and the staff are always laid back and groovy – making every visit a blast. Special shout out to James, who never fails to ensure we have an amazing time. And let's talk about the Key Lime Pie – it's simply the BEST... PERIOD. Rodney's has become our go-to spot, a monthly ritual we eagerly look forward to. We can easily devour 96 oysters in one sitting! If you're an oyster lover, Rodney's is a must-visit!

Wow! Amazing oysters 🦪 and seafood 🦞! This has been a staple restaurant for us when in Toronto and have hankering for Oysters. Recommend making reservations as it fills up quickly. The seafood is so fresh and delicious you will be back for more! They bring in fresh lobster, crab, and variety of oysters. Each week, day, they post on their board what is available. You can order just a sampler if you're not sure what you like. If you enjoy delicious and fresh seafood, then you must dine here. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Very helpful and happy to make suggestions for what to order. Good selection of cocktails and some beers. We've been here several times and will be back again! Parking is on the street, so might have to plan ahead. We like to walk and often walk down and leave the car parked in a lot. Enjoy!

Outstanding seafood restaurant. Pleasant greeting hosts and waiters begin the dining experience. Waiter is knowledgeable of the menu and food source. After inquiring our oyster preference he assembled our oyster platter and has nailed it, which is quite impressive. Smoker’s platter is a delight reminded me of my BC years where I flavored many ways to prepare salmon. Steamed hardshell clams kept on the flavor celebration going with chubby, soft tissue clams bathed in white wine. The sea fry is also delicious I forgot to photo it before us clearing the plate. The dishes tasted this time incorporate spices to bring up heat and spiciness. This is a recommended restaurant for family, dates, and social events.

Excellent! The oysters were superb, I adore how they bring out an extensive collection of all their handcrafted sauces to compliment them (also, you can order jars of their sauces to take home and they’re very fairly priced). Our server had extensive knowledge of their dishes and the differences between each oyster variety. Also had their pickerel sandwich and clams (both were great). They have heavily discounted wines on Monday which was a lovely surprise. Their interior is very charming, but I loved their outdoor seating which was tucked away amidst all cars and business of King street. Looking forward to returning.

I have only had the opportunity to have a few oysters in my lifetime, and gosh darn it, this place has set the bar so high I'm afraid I'll only be disappointed from here on out. The oysters were to die for, and the staff was exceptional at explaining and helping us choose. Not to mention we were blown away at the dessert (the key lime pie is a MUST), scallops and the amazing soft shell crab sandwich. I cannot stop raving about this place to all who will listen, and I already know it will be my first stop next time I'm back in Toronto. So so good!!

I’ve been here around 2 years ago and I think the quality of the food remains the same (a good thing)! Out of all the oyster sauces, I would say my favourite is the seawitch sauce. I also wouldn’t recommend trying the vodka shot with the oyster because it overpowers the taste of the oyster and just ruins it with its over the top bitterness. All the other dishes aside from the bahamian chowder were good though. The bahamian chowder was very thin and didn’t have the thickness I expected when it came to chowder but the taste of the chowder and the lobster meat inside was good. I enjoyed the experience overall and coming back here wouldn’t be out of the question.

Amazing oysters selection. Server super kind and well prepared to describe any dishes and all the oysters type. One of the most original restaurant in Toronto. Super suggested for seafood

I love Rodney’s!!! We came on a Sunday around 2pm for oysters and wine, they always have such great selection of oysters, you can’t go wrong with this place! Their crab cakes are so amazing as well! The staff were friendly and quick to help, although the restaurant was a big empty, we had an amazing time by the bar. If you haven’t tried this place, please do so, you won’t be disappointed!

Rodney's Oyster House exceeded our expectations with its fresh seafood and lively atmosphere. We indulged in a delightful array of oysters, crab, lobster, and crab cakes, each dish bursting with flavor and freshness. The oysters were impeccably shucked and paired perfectly with the house sauces. The crab and lobster were succulent and cooked to perfection. The crab cakes were a standout, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. To complement our meal, we enjoyed expertly crafted Caesars that added just the right kick. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing our dining experience. Rodney's Oyster House is a must-visit for any seafood lover.
