| - Big Sur Oyster Bar isn't like any other quick and cheap casino eatery for gamblers looking to get some quick nutrients. But I assure you it's nothing of the sort.
It's not cheap either, but probably one of the more affordable and convenient places to get cioppino with out braking your pockets and making reservations at since fancy shmancy Italian restaurante.
Other dishes include lobster grilled cheese, bloody mary oyster shooters and beer bartered shrimp and scallops. Also includes the regulars (crab legs, catch of the day, etc.) As well as both Manhattan& New England style clam chowder.
The place is fast and right on the money with what I need, good food fast and close to home.
Service is mad friendly and helpful behind an open kitchen that provides that piece of mind for those skeptical about cleanliness.
Now the cioppino, it's on hit! The tomato broth is piping hot and tasty when it comes out and includes a generous portion of scallops, shrimp, clams, mussels, calamari and lobster over linguine. There is a tone down version that has less broth and more of a sauce, its called a Diavallo and just as good.
We usually share a portion unless you are "mob boss" hungry. I like to pair it up with a nice glass of Anchor Steam and keep the buns coming, ah thank you.
