Denise J. was great. She took the time to explain questions we had about various items. Brought is a bit of curry to try, to see if we liked it. Yes it was enjoyed. We got the Salt & Pepper with a combo of calamari & shrimp...really good. We also had the Pad Thai with shrimp... that took was really good. Portions are of good size and filling! We sat outside and several dishes/meals passed our table and everything looked good! We like to try different places to eat but this is a "return" location, as to try other dishes! read more

Had a great Sunday lunch at Ocean Blue. Nice quiet ambience and great food experience. We ordered Boudin, shrimp Diablo, 6 lemon pepper wings, mates platter, and pad see ew. Everything was great and elevated by the house Thai chili sauce! I did sample the gumbo but decided against it. It was good but could be more flavorful. This was my families first time but will have to make it a regular stop after church. I forgot to take a picture until some plates were finished read more

It's was ok, the food, the ambiance and the service. The service was good, but inside of my drink had a money clip. They gave me a discount. Unfortunately I just saw in the end. read more

Ocean Blue Oyster Bar - Old fashion - Seafood Near Me - Kyle, Texas

Was hesitant to try the Kyle location after change in ownership, the Lamar spot definitely was lacking flavors but Kyle redeemed the taste buds today! Everything was flavorful and on point! Still the best lao style papaya salad in town! Padsee ew was wok-ee and flavorful, tender beef. They have a spacious bar to grab a drink. Definitely excited to come back for crawfish season! read more

Really enjoyed the spring rolls, Yellow Curry stew, and the baked oysters. The menu is gigantic!!! We look forward to trying the mussels next time. read more

was recommended this place by a friend an was glad to finally try it! Not what I expected at all, they have a very nice fusion of menu items, from Thai to Cajun to bar fair. Really looking forward to going back to try more, but this time around we tried some of the recommendations from our waitress. Food was very good (I'd say "strong flavors" and a bit of a twist on what you'd expect from everything we tried), marg was a bit more on the tart side than sweet side, but the star of the show was the staff. They went above & beyond to make recommendations, take our order quickly, keep our drinks full & check in on us throughout the meal. Will be back to try more of their options next time. read more

Absolutely terrible experience. We sat for almost an hour with no food. The server let us know some other server took our food to another table? It was absolutely ridiculous and a waste of time. The one appetizer that made it to our table was okay. Not coming back to this one. read more

The raw oysters were super tasty and the flounder dish was amazing! Although our actual server was very new, she was friendly and tried (a seasoned pro made the final recommendations, however). Comfortable atmosphere. read more

For a long time, I had no desire to try Ocean Blue Oyster Bar. I was not impressed by the crab shacks that previously occupied the space. My boyfriend felt the same. However, Ocean Blue's menu looked good, and eventually, I told my boyfriend I wanted to try it. It took him a little more time to agree. On Friday, February 20, we finally entered the restaurant hungry from a busy day. My boyfriend got the Drunken Sailor. I didn't sample it, but I can tell y'all this: He ate every last bite of his on his plate. I ordered the stuffed flounder. It came with rice, green beans, broccoli, and garlic bread. I was impressed with the number and assortment of sides. As someone who makes amazing garlic bread, I was underwhelmed by the bread. Everything else was great! I boxed up some of my meal to eat the next day. We left knowing we would be returning, for sure. Just over a week later, my boyfriend and I headed back over to Ocean Blue in Kyle to celebrate a special occasion. Briana was our server, and she was truly OUTSTANDING. My boyfriend and I had the shrimp fried rice. The fried rice is served as a huge mound (love the portion size!). The shrimp were large and plentiful. The fried rice was absolutely delicious! We split the fried banana dessert...also, yummy (and enough for four people although the two of us devoured it, lol). I don't write a plethora of reviews. In fact, I think this is my first review of a restaurant. However, with the winning combination of scrumptious food, fantastic prices, and exceptional service, how could I not share the experience?!?! read more

Welcome to Kyle! Such an amazing addition to the area. The service was very warm and friendly! They did note their menu was going to be updated to be more easier to navigate through. Make sure to order your papaya salad mild cause oh it is spicyyy! The crawfish was amazing! The crawfish was so fresh and the shrimp was huge! The best seafood boil I have had in Kyle hands down! There was a bit of a wait for the seafood boil but...so worth it! So make sure you order some appetizers to hold you over. The oyster po boy was delicious! Their food has a Thai fusion so remember to take your pure Cajun hat off and just enjoy the delicious flavors! We enjoyed the mango sticky rice too! We will be back for the friendly service and nice ambiance. The food is so good! Make sure you come early cause it gets pretty crowded in the evening. read more

My wife & I finally found a secret spot to eat seafood. I ordered fried oysters & my wife got coconut shrimp. Best fried oysters that I have ever had, not over fried & delicious. My wife loved the shrimp. We have been back a couple of times & never been disappointed. read more

God was mediocre: seafood platter; shrimp fried rice; Service was underwhelming and detached or someone trying to hide a lack of familiarity with menu. Greatambiance read more

I came here for lunch and it was a great experience! I sat at the bar and the bartender was very nice and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. His name was Jamie (xajme), and at first I hesitated to sit at the bar because I wanted to eat my meal in peace but Jamie gave an appropriate amount of small talk that made my experience great! I had 2 pounds of crawfish, the long horn stuffed catfish and the Asian pepper chicken wings along with a hurricane! First I was hesitant to get crawfish because I am very picky, but these crawfish were clean, juicy and big! They were mixed in with their garlic butter sauce and it was delicious! I do have to say it was a little bit too much for my liking, but It was still enjoyable. Their price per pound (March 2025) is at $11.99 a pound but they were worth it! The Long Horn stuffed catfish was full of flavor that I can't even describe, it was just super good and very worth trying out. The Asian pepper chicken wings had great flavor! It was salty, sweet and not too spicy. This wasn't the typical deep fried chicken wings but it is soaked in a sauce and it was delicious! If you like your wings crispy, this isn't for you, but if you're willing to give it a try, it's delicious! The hurricane cocktail was very pleasant and it was not too sweet but strong and it was a great touch to my meal! I've only tried these three things on the menu but I will definitely be coming back to try out the rest of the menu! I think this is a great addition to Kyle Texas in the seafood restaurant! read more

We have heard about Ocean Blue since it first opened in our neighborhood, and was finally able to stop by. We went off-hours on a weekday so it was not crowded at all (which we preferred having a toddler). Jenny was our server and she was so lovely! She took great care of us, checking in on us and making sure everything was going well. Along with the excellent service, the food was fantastic. The stand out was the Papaya Seafood salad. It had all the flavors and freshness you'd expect from the dish. Lots of Umami flavor from the abundance of fish sauce. We also tried the Longhorn Stuffed Catfish from the Grill mates section of the menu. Also a large portion and was delicious. Fish was tender and juicy, and weaved the stuffing with Pico de Gallo, imitation crab, and bacon. We also did the Crawford Boil (1 lb.) which was flavorful, juicy, and a nice big serving. We'll definitely be going back regularly to support this local business! read more

Food was good. Crawfish was a little small, maybe cause start of season. Oysters were great, bartender gave me a sauce to put on oysters that was amazing. Some kind of Thai sauce i think. Use it!! read more

Ordered a dozen oysters on half shell along with the shrimp cocktail with a cup of crawfish étouffée, shrimp cocktail was good and had plenty of spice to match the flavor, oysters however were small (4 out of 12 were extremely small) normally when you get extremely small the Buisness will add a couple to offset this issue. Crawfish étouffée was not what I was looking for, my family on both sides (Mother & Father) came from Louisiana and I am an awesome cook, this sucked and was not worth spending money on. The atmosphere seems more like a bar, not a restaurant, music was loud and proud. read more

I was seated quickly. I've seen this place through two changes of ownership. The decor is beautiful. Two tables were seated after me and at least greeted by their server and received drinks before me. After the maitre de saw me just sitting, a man came up and said do ya know what ya want? So I gave my order, the gumbo came out quickly. It was just okay. I'm used to a bit more flavor and spice. The fish chunks were larger than I'm used to. I also ordered half dozen boiled shrimp and half dozen raw oyster combo. Oysters came out quickly and were great. Although I have never eaten oysters with a regular sized fork. That wasn't a big deal. When he set them down, he said your shrimp will be out in a moment. Later he came back and he said the kitchen said five more minutes on your shrimp. A little bit later, he came back to my table looking sheepish and said I know before that they said five minutes, but now they're saying seven minutes. When he finally brought my shrimp out, they were on a white oval plate with ice on top of them. The server said they were still hot so I put ice on them. I am glad that he did because the shrimp were to the point of being overcooked. The shells were extremely hard to get off and the shrimp had not been deveined. The only reason I might consider coming back here is for the oysters And that's only if I cannot find them too expensive. The server did take the gumbo off of my bill. I do have some grace because they are still in their soft opening phase and I did let him know about the shrimp being overcooked. But I have an aversion to eating shrimp poop that's clearly visible. read more

Ocean Blue Oyster Bar - Boiled shrimp. The server added the ice. Thank goodness he did because they were borderline overcooked. No attempt at presentation. - Seafood Near Me - Kyle, Texas

Great service, excellent food, and cold beer. We went Friday fairly early before a concert. Would definitely go back. Try it if you haven't.

Go on WEDNESDAY for the $1 Oyster Bar! But try out their other dishes, too! SO GOOD! Very friendly service and delicious food!

Lunch around 1:00. Nice little crowd on Thursday. I had the lunch menu catfish, with fries, gumbo and hush puppies. Very good. Lightly breaded and fried medium, 3 nice size pieces. Wife had the shrimp in Thai soup with bean and other veggies. A little spicy, but good. Service was excellent. Quickly delivered. Price was reasonable. Definitely will come back again read more

Kassandra, Our server was truly exceptional! She was incredibly attentive to our needs, offering a warm and friendly service that made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She went above and beyond by expertly guiding us through the menu and ensuring our every request was met. The food is absolutely delicious. My husband is extremely pleased with the freshness of the oysters. Our family enjoys the crawfish, headless shrimp and snow crab with a medium spice. I will say, please save room for dessert, because the mango sticky rice is a must. We will be back! read more

Food was excellent. Gumbo is best I've ever eaten. Prices are good. I highly recommend.

Service was horrible, we stood at front entry for 10 minutes, then the waitress says sit anywhere. The waitress didn't come to greet us at the table for 6 minutes. Food was not great at all. I'm very disappointed with our visit. I will never return. read more

2nd time dining there and both times the food was very good and service great as well.

Our server Denise was absolutely incredible! She was fun, relatable, personable, and helped direct us to the dishes we would like best.

We will be back to see Denise again and look forward to her company and the amazing dishes at the restaurant. read more

I do miss the crab place that used to be here but honestly this place does have decent crawfish. It's not Louisiana back yard on a hot summer day crawfish but it does kick the craving! I got mild with the sides and my husband got the stuffed cat fish. Both were good (the minced garlic is a bit over board to my liking) and the staff were very kind. We'll be returning soon to try out the rest of the menu! read more
