Best Oyster Bars in Carlsbad

We came here for our anniversary. We were immediately greeted at the door with roses and champagne, that was already such a great experience. Once we checked in with our hosts, about 5 minutes later we were escorted to our table and we had the best view of the ocean. The table had fresh rose petals all over it, followed by a hand written “happy anniversary” card from Eddie V’s. Once our waitress came by, she came by with 2 more glasses of champagne on the house. We ordered a bottle of Daou reserve, the 22 OZ rib eye streak, mashed potatoes, truffled mac and cheese and asparagus. The night was absolutely beautiful. Our experience was amazing!!! Thank you to Eddie V’s for make our anniversary PERFECT! 10/10 across the boards!!! Selena was the best waitress ever! Shoutout to the WHOLE staff that night!

We’ve been going to the Brigantine for 40 years (yikes!), and we usually sit in the bar and have fish tacos and the best oysters Rockefeller in the world. Last night we ate in the restaurant like grown up’s and the food and service was spectacular.

Wow! Happy Valentine’s Day to us! Zack was an amazing server! We asked him to for “dealers choice” and he provided us with the most amazing meals we have had in a long time! He was very personable and fun and had great drink recommenrations, too! The “little stickler” was a great tequila cocktail and made fiancée enjoyed supping Ocho Tequila all night. Thank you for a memorable Valentine’s Day night! 💕🥂🥰

We had such a lovely evening at Brigantine at Portside Pier! Waitstaff here is amazing and all the dishes all came out timely and amazing!! We had a variety of foods from raw oysters to a salad & a burger! Everything was delicious!

I made a booking for in the Bar area because my boyfriend and I wanted a more casual experience since we are both in the industry and just wanted to relax and enjoy. We put a note in our reservation that we were celebrating our V day early and on arrival to our table were greeted with a wonderful, spacious booth and rose petals that were so unexpected! Our server Eddie was energetic with a perfect balance of casual, Meeting us exactly where we were in our tempo of the evening. Him and his assistant were there exactly when we needed and not anymore We truly had such a better time than we even imagined, we were using a gift card but we will absolutely be back again. Food was wonderful but the service was even better, will be back for both. Thanks so much Eddie for a seamless dinner and the celebration dessert!
