    Lovely! It is a different owner yes. It is a different restaurant! And it is lovely. Staff was wonderful. View is still amazing and the food was terrific. Sablefish was wonderful. Halibut done correctly. And my wife eats zero seafood... and her steak came out the temperature ordered and was good. So the past is the past. The future is just as good just a little different. And worth coming.

    Where do we begin?? The Laughing Oyster has been the highlight meal of our honeymoon trip! From the second you walk in you're greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff, we had reservations (highly recommend) and everything went flawlessly. To start we had 4 oysters and the Gunpowder Prawns, both were great. My entree was David's Cajun Bouillabaisee which was spicy but just perfect! My wife had the special of the night (Salmon, fried oysters, prawns and mashed potato with a creole sauce) wow! The laughing oyster would get 100 stars if we could. We will most definitely be back! Ps Dave if you see this, the bottle of champagne to celebrate our Honeymoon was the cherry on top of an amazing evening! Thank you again

    The restaurant!

    Amazed by the consistency of quality and flavor! Completely blown away by the view and ambiance! Service is top notch and the chef is so personable. I think he's the owner too. Our server had great recommendations for both wines and food, Kudos to her! Started with the gunpowder prawns- fresh, spicy, and flavorful! We had a mushroom soup and a seafood bisque. Both pleased the senses and the mushroom soup left me wanting more! The Tuna starter was very nicely done with a wasabi aioli that was a perfect touch. Now the big star! The fisherman's Grog! Oh wow! This was a fantastic meal! So much flavor from the clams and mussels to the huge chunks of fresh fish! And the rice was perfectly prepared! The shrimp linguine was really flavorful with a white wine cream sauce and fresh herbs! So light and delicious! Now onto desserts... We ordered three! The chocolate terrine, the toffee bread pudding, and a slice of Bourbon pecan pie. All of which are made in house! The chocolate was rich and delicious! The toffee bread pudding was absolutely epic! And the pie has just the right amount of bourbon! Five stars all the way around!

    To rate this incredible place as anything less than a five star experience blows my mind. My girlfriend and I had one of the most romantic nights of our lives at this beautiful place. The setting is completely magical. It's a restaurant inside a beautiful home with an expansive back patio overlooking the Okeover Inlet and a vibrant and eclectic flower garden. Yes, please! It was fairly busy when we arrived and we didn't even have a reservation, but nonetheless, we got a primo spot. A table out on the patio with an unobstructed view of the inlet and garden. Our server who kept us company for what seemed like hours, was outstanding and really made the experience special. I wish I could recall her name - young blonde woman originally from the area who left for school and came back to work summers. Ring any bells? Well, she deserves all our accolades. She was a great conversationalist throughout the evening, recommended a fabulous wine and gave us great intel on the best entrees. Every single thing we consumed was fantastic. About an hour and half into our meal, someone started playing guitar out on the deck and he was good too! We learned from our server, that this was none other than the owner himself. How cool! Overall, this was a really special dinner and I owe it to wonderful people running the Laughing Oyster. Thank you so much for the unforgettable evening!

    Fish and chips - go for halibut for $2 more!

    See all

    What a gem. We stayed at the nearby campsite and walked there for dinner. It didn't disappoint. Amazing views, amazing food.
