L'Oyster Bar - Arcachon

We visited the market early in our holiday, and at the stall I was generously offered an oyster to try; I had asked which were best and told the four seasons (seasonally available July-August). It was fabulous, the essence of the sea. I promised myself...a dozen so returned on my own (my wife and young kids rejected the offer to join me in this delicacy). I had a dozen, with white wine. I tried them alone, with lemon and with the shallot vinegar. All ways were good but my favourite was just a little lemon juice. They were delicious, and the market setting lovely. I will be back, hopefully maturing children will one day brave it and join me; I hold out no hope for my wife who will never know what she is missing.

We were walking around the indoor market came across this wonderful little place. Situated at one end of the market, we were lucky enough to find a place to sit. We ate wonderful fresh Arcachon oysters, whelks, prawns langoustines while watching life go...on throughout the market. A great way to spend an hour. All reasonably priced.

I am not a specialist for uttering, but I liked this place, although it was a bit cool, as it was a market room and we were in December. they ran out of a fish soup since we came too late, but we ordered to utter and garnel and they were good. my friend liked the oysters but not. she's not a oyster. the service was fast and friendly. I was amazed by the amount of oysters who ordered men, but then I understood why they took so many of them. it is not a good idea to have 14 oysters for lunch, it was simply not enough: next time I take a huge plate of oysters!

We enjoyed our meal. crevettes were good and the fish soup too. overpriced. when in arcachon, it deserves a visit.

Cheaper place to try oysters in an internal market. we had a plate with 9 oysters and some other fish (20.50), plus two glasses wein and paid a total of 27.50. recommended for the first timer with oysters (as we are) as it seems a fairly cheap wise. to try them. I'm not sure if I'm gonna eat again, but I liked the experience and the other fish on the plate were really good.
