Reviews
I found this place by chance while walking along the promenade from the beach. Since then I’ve been coming here almost for dinner every day during my vacation. The atmosphere is really nice, with air conditioning and music that is not too loud. The food is very tasty, the portions are big. I liked mostly seafood dishes, seafood pizza, pasta, desserts and moocktails. I also want to highlight the shisha. I asked for a light one and it was exactly what I wanted! Smooth, fresh and with great smoke. The staff are very friendly and can recommend dishes for different tastes and budgets. I also like that there are good options without onion, which is important for me. This has become my favorite place to eat in Durres. Highly recommend!
Fantastic food and service. The food was excellent. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. It’s so reasonably priced too. Cocktails were buy one get one free in happy hour. Such a lovely welcoming atmosphere. You must try it.
This was one of the nicest experiences in Durrës from our vacation here. The oysters were fresh, the food it’s delicious and the staff are very kind and very welcoming. Atmosphere was amazing, especially at the sunset as it create such a nice vibe. Thank you for looking after us tonight. See you soon!
Oyster Restaurant turned out to be a very good choice on the seafront. We came here specifically for the seafood platter and definitely did not regret it. The restaurant has a really beautiful interior and a much more polished atmosphere compared to many places nearby. The service was professional, friendly, and attentive throughout the evening, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We originally chose this place because of the good reviews and because it was the closest quality seafood restaurant to the apartments we were staying in. In the end, it fully lived up to the expectations. The seafood platter was fresh, generous, and very well prepared. Everything tasted balanced and high quality without trying too hard to be “fancy.” The prices were also surprisingly reasonable for a first-line restaurant with this level of service and presentation. What we liked most was that the restaurant manages to combine a great location, good atmosphere, proper service, and genuinely tasty food — something that is not always easy to find in tourist areas. Definitely one of the better seafood spots we visited during our trip in Albania.
Oyster was an unforgettable experience — the food was absolutely amazing, fresh, and full of flavor. The space, decoration, and overall atmosphere were beautiful and perfectly curated. I enjoyed the meal so much that I was literally overwhelmed with happiness, laughing nonstop from pure pleasure. A truly exceptional place that delivers not just great food, but an experience to remember.
