Happy hour 5-6:30pm. $1 oysters, seafood chowder, mussels, small happy hour menu but worth it, dinner here is a must at well.

Crudo's oyster, chowder, and fish taco happy hour always makes our lists, and it's still one of the best deals in town for an after-work treat. Happy hour is 5 to 6:30 pm, Tuesday to Sunday. Read more

If you're looking for interesting preparations of super-fresh seafood with some ambiance, this is the place. Everything is delicious, but don't miss the namesake raw fish crudos. WinstonWanders.com

Best non-Japanese seafood meal ever! Crudo sampler is a must. Lobster and tomato salad and mussels in cream sauce both better than they sound. Good service and moderate prices. Highly recommended!

The San Sebastián was perfect and beautifully arranged! This place has a lovely interior and friendly staff. It’s crowded 5-6:30 for happy hour but dies down after that.

Crudo raises the bar for fish tacos with their hearty fillets of local rock cod, seared to a delicate crisp and served on a pillow of guacamole, topped off with fresh greens and pickled onions. Read more

Was here for sfbw. Magnolia was the partner. Great sea food. And an amazing pairing for desert with chcolate cake cherries whiskey sauce, and a thunderpussy barley wine!
Tim HainesFebruary 16, 2020
The happy hour menu is a steal, but also the bait that draws you in. You’ll probably be ordering more from the full price menu, but don’t worry, it’s all delicious. Recommend the Spanish octopus.

Get the weekend started with Bar Crudo's bacon-laced seafood chowder. (There's also a beer and wine happy hour from 5-6:30pm lest you want to start drinking). Read more

With so many oysters to choose from (Sea Cow, Washington, Miyagi, Kumamoto, St. Simon, Kusshi and ~gasp!~ Naked Cowboys), crushing a few platters in one sitting is not out of the ordinary. Read more
CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014
Perfect if you’re looking for a night off from heavy eating. The menu is simple but thoughtful. Don’t miss the happy hour specials from 5 – 6:30 with those mussels we loved and select oysters for $1!
Tricia R.January 5, 2014
The Arctic Char is insanely tasty. The lobster beet salad is delish and the whole roasted sea bass was seriously amazing. This is my new favorite restaurant. I will be back for the chowder.
Eva LauerbachOctober 4, 2017
Don't miss the 5-6:30 pm daily happy hour! Excellent seafood restaurant with a compelling menu - oysters and mussels for 1.50$; wine and other delicious seafood dishes (chowder).

Their Branzino came enveloped in flavorful orange oil & poblano peppers. The seafood chowder was fabulous & they served some of the best swordfish I've ever had. Read more

Happy Hour from 5-6:30 is fantastic: oysters, best mussels I've ever had, seafood chowder, fish tacos and more, plus two $6 wine options that go perfectly with the food.
Kenneth BergerApril 27, 2013
I've been ordering the same thing here for years: crudo sampler for two, San Sebastian salad, Lobster Burrata salad, and the grilled fish of the day. A feast for two, and a classic one.
Ms HeleneAugust 19, 2013
Share a crudo sampler-amazing! Lobster and tomato salad screams freshness and the mussels are in the most divine cream sauce that you'll want to drink it. Amazing food for good prices.
Phil TorontoMay 31, 2015
Uni Avocado Toast: it's not even fair to put this on the menu. Two wonderful things on their own combined into one delicious dish.

Let's hit the happy hour! There is already a line somewhat at 5pm. But it's fine. You might take seats shortly. And then it's pretty simple. Oysters and chowder.
AnissaMay 4, 2015
Great date atmosphere! Can't go wrong with the crudo sampler. The lobster salad has a generous helping of lobster chunks!
m dNovember 26, 2018
Happy hour everyday. $1.5 oysters and nice stuff. Good to make a quick stop for oysters as well.
Sophyan JulioApril 26, 2015
Is this what people call a neighborhood gem? Everything was tasty and affordable. Loved the lobster salad. Will be back!
Eliza ChangJuly 10, 2014
If you've ever felt tired of Japanese-prepared sashimi, get the crudo sampler. It'll blow your mind and restore your faith in the beauty of raw.

Don't miss the crudo sampler ($14 for four pieces, $28 for 8 pieces), featuring sashimi-like cuts of simply seasoned fish, or the uni avocado toast ($13) Read more

The creative crudo spins, addictive clam chowder and airy atmosphere are always enlivening. [Eater 38 Member]

Great crudo selection; scallops are great, Arctic char is delicious; yellow tail is amazing. Can pass on the butterfish. Raw clams were very fishy. Crab was fantastic.

Incredible Arctic char crudo. Big pieces of very rich fish. Also great wines during happy hour.

The seafood soup might be my favorite soup in the entire city. Get it!
Johnnie SkywalkingMay 4, 2014
Seafood chowder is unique and tasty. somewhat feels the flavor of thai curry as well. but, the best is the crudo sampler and sea urchin.
Phil TorontoMay 31, 2015
The Arctic Char was my favorite crudo. Fresh, bright and fun flavors on the bite.

We love the crazy good happy hour (dollar oysters, y'all!), but the restaurant's full menu makes us stay for dinner more often than not. Read more

happy hr; 5-630p sometimes it does get quite busy, so a reservation would be nice, but overall they have good beer and wine selection, definitely check it out
Raj S.April 6, 2013
Seafood chowder is a must as well as the Uni avocado toast. Reservations are recommended but there is a lot of bar space. Great service too.

Asmall but mighty destination forseafood (both the raw and cooked variety), and one of the best nightly happy hours around.

Dollar oyster happy hour but every crudo we ordered stole the show. The butterfish and yellowtail were on point.

OMG! The lobster salad is one of the best things I have ever had in my life!!!!
Vic BNovember 25, 2016
Crudos (sashimi like raw fish) are amazing and the burrata / lobster salad was the best salad I ever had!
Kareem ZarwiOctober 6, 2014
Crudo for Two, and get the Head-On-Prawns and at least 2 orders of Uni on Toast.
Tracey BoltonJuly 13, 2013
The Dungenous Crab was served with brown butter! So delish. Uni and avocado toasts were a standout.
Raj S.August 8, 2014
Their seafood chowder is worth any wait the hostess quotes you. Come just a bit before rush hour to snag a seat at the bar.
