King Street Oyster: A Seafood Haven in Washington, DC

Great food and place. Our server Jasmine went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was the best. Next time we visit we will ask for her to serve us again. She took the time to explain the difference between all the oysters we had. The oysters are fresh and delicious by the way

My experience was awesome. Just a reminder this is my first time here. I just moved in the area and wanted to find a spot near home that has great hospitality. We'll I found it. The host greeted me well....the people was friendly. When I made it to the bar JP introduced himself greeted me with water which is a good thing offered me suggested items and drinks. He was so pleasant and caring. The drinks and food was amazing. This is my new home away from home thank you JP and staff for your awesome service...

The happy hour menu is a great deal! 1.25$ oysters, 6$ sliders and a 9$ shrimp po boy with fries! The food isn’t amazing, but good enough for the price I’ve read the reviews about the noise level and poor service. The bar area can be particularly noisy. I would suggest sitting in the dinning area to the left once you walk in. As far as service, our waitress India was great. Greeted us in good time and fashion and took our order. I suppose your mileage will vary. And they do include a 20% gratuity in your check. I understand they are trying to make a living or make people pay a tip, but let us decide that. Or provide better service.

They need to get their door under control and put a host in place who knows how to manage tables effectively. I watched them lose patrons due to no one taking control of their host stand on a packed Friday night and people just cutting one another because there was no order. The young man checking people in was clueless and overwhelmed and their wasn't a leader in sight to help control the happy hour chaos. That being said, their deals at happy hour are incredible, $6 drinks and food options under $10 that all hit the spot. So they still earn a solid review and recommendation if they get their table management and hosting fixed. Ashley was a wonderful server and kept up with a demanding crowd. Definitely a loud and roudy fun time during HH if you can manage to make it in the place.

Our first visit and we’re already planning our next HH here. Ashley & the gentlemen working the service well were both super attentive and smiley! We ordered off the HH menu and everything was great. Oysters for $1.25 on a Sunday, and the jalapeño mignonette was our favorite. The Salmon BLT sliders and crispy Brussels were delish. Can’t wait to come back! 10/10

I went during Happy hour and it was wonderful! JP was the waiter (I sat at the bar). It was my first time and he made recommendations. He radiates good energy and fun! If you are a snob or grumpy stay away or he will make you smile. The King Collins drink he made was . I told him I like "old fashion" and this was perfect. I ordered the oysters, salmon sliders( no picture) and the beef sliders. Delicious!! Everything was perfectly seasoned and not super salty. If you love oysters, this place is a must. I say this because I am NOT a huge fan and they were tender and jumped in my mouth with no effort . If you are visiting the Noma DC area stop here. It does get busy so be prepared.

Went for their happy hour which was bustling. I didn't care for the hostess who tried to just throw me anywhere inside of a crowded space. I ended up finding a decent seat on the patio and my server was really nice. The food was pretty good, and I didn't have to wait long even though it was busy. I especially enjoyed the Brussels and the Dubai Chocolate brownie, the salmon sliders could have been better. I'd go again.

I really enjoyed my time at this spot. The drinks were great, I loved the oysters, service was on point, and the pricing was very reasonable. The atmosphere is super cute and makes for a nice night out. The only downside was the parking, which was a bit of a headache. Other than that, definitely worth checking out.
