Desire Oyster Bar

Half doz grilled and half doz raw oysters , jambalaya and the BBQ shrimp are amazing! I mixed the BBQ sauce in with the jambalaya and it made it perfectly spicy :)

Kiki is the best waitress ever. I just love her!!! Ask for her plus the salmon Rockefeller is awesome.

Cajun trio: crawfish étouffée , fried green tomatoes and jambalaya . The bomb! The food was great but the service could've been better. We'd definitely come back!

Shrimp and grits , steak , red beans combo platter, oysters were all really good.

Came here for happy hour and sat at the bar . $1 chargrilled oysters ! No complaints on taste but the shucking could be improved (some grit and shell bits).

The service was great and the crab cakes were to die for!

The crab cake and the grilled oysters are amazing. The bloody mary is good also.

Oysters , alligator meatballs and fried platters are delicious. Make sure to go with friends to share.

Baked Oyster the best ever!!! Server Pete is very attentive and helpful

The po'boys are very good. A word of warning though...they are HUGE! but is a plate of deliciousness! the oysters are good.

JoAnn is the best server, and she may even give you a hug!!

Great menu good service & reasonable prices

Insanely huge portions . The po boy sandwiches are enough to feed two. Try the BBQ oysters , holy amazingness.

Great oyster place. Interior is amazing.

I got the Trio and the fried alligator appetizer . Both were good, and I'm totally stuffed.

Oysters are taking five stars from me. Food is delicious and verry attentive staff .

The gumbo & red beans & rice is some of the best I've had in a long time.

These were by far the biggest and fattest oysters I've had, and I eat a lot of oysters .

The broiled oysters are "the best ever" - the Jambalaya was also perfect, not too spicy .

While the BBQ shrimp sounds and looks delicious, it was beyond salty. I had to call it quits halfway through.

Excellent Chargrilled Oysters

Forgot the pic!

There's a reason there's no line for oysters here, instead of Felix and Acme. Oysters were not cleaned , weren't particularly chilled either. Our waiter was great and fun, but otherwise distracted.

Gumbo and crawfish étouffée were amazing. I was tempted to lick the plate

Hard to beat these charred oysters

Oyster bar was fantastic! Crab cakes are amazing here!!! Must try!

Excellent turtle soup hours well with oysters on half shell. Careful with the horseradish . HOT!

If you come around for breakfast , ask for muffins : they have blueberry & hazelnut versions, both are so tasty!

Outstanding Creole food in a touristy place. Must have!!!

Jambalaya - hands down, the best I've ever had

Muddy oysters , overkill BBQ mix on the shrimp . Great title soup . Servers are sweeties but can't make up for the overall bad food.

Excellent fried green tomatoes w Remoulade and crawfish étouffée !

Try the gator burger . Tastes like ground turkey but better!! Also try the creole jumbalaya. Great eats!!!

Crawfish étouffée and gumbo are legit. Worth trying each.

Char-grilled oysters were great.

Oyster happy hour

JoAnn may be the best waitress I have ever had - in my life. She'ing and so nice. Even if the food wasn't amazing I wou go back just for her.

They seated us and ignored us. After 20 minutes we gave up and went across the street to Remoulade - great choice!

JoAnn is wonderful and makes some killer cocktail sauce !

Ask for Jo Ann. She's been here 38 years.
