   The entries are pricey, but they where good. No coffee for after dinner desert my only request that was not taken care off.

   Although the food and service were great, I found it a bit pricy for the value.

   Had a lovely lunch on the patio. Right next to a busy street, so noisy. Superb oysters and delicious salad. Excellent service. Would definitely come back when I am in the area.

   We went out with friends to this spot that’s new to us. The food is excellent. The burrata, the braised lamb risotto, I mean it was all superb. The kitchen sent the wrong dish, or the server put it in wrong (he seemed green) and it took forever for them to make it, so that was a bummer. However, it was taken off the bill. I will still go back!

   I took my best friend for a birthday dinner here and we had an amazing experience! This is a gem tucked away in La Mesa. We ordered the spicy love cocktail as recommended by our server and was pleasantly surprised. Hesitant about the spice but it won’t us over. Appetizers we’re half dozen oysters and calamari. The oysters were sooo fresh and we got a variety with 3 different kinds of oysters (loved this). Calamari was just okay. For dinner we split the spaghetti with white clam sauce and wished we had ordered our own because it was so delicious. Finished with pistachio ice cream which was tasty as well. Thanks to our server for great service, warm welcome and awesome suggestions. I will be returning!!

   2nd time here and loved it again. We shared Octopus, Mussels, grilled Shrimp and oysters. Every dish was so so good. Service and wine were amazing too. Highly recommend this neighborhood gem. Support Local!

   Delightful neighborhood bistro. Support it neighbors! Attentive staff, nice menu with good offerings across the board - appetizers, salads, mains, desserts. Also some good, unique cocktails. These owners are making the effort, and should reap the rewards! I might have gone 5 stars on the food, but both our entrees were well on the sweet side, which was a bit of a puzzler. Perhaps the chef got sugar & salt mixed up - it happens. But other than that, very good. We had Shrimp w/ Garganelli (too sweet) and could use more shrimp. They seemed to have offered it at one time with crab in it too. Also the Braised Short Rib Rigatoni (which was a bit sweet) but was delicious., and the Little Gem salad was a hit - fresh and tasty. For dessert - the Creme Brulee! I have had lots of creme brulee, and make a fantastic one myself, but this was as good as it gets! Kudos! Silky smooth, just the right amount of sweetness, and a perfect brulee! Get it when you go!

    Food was very good, a bit spendy but definitely hit the spot. We had oysters on the half shell, charred octopus, mini short rib tacos, spaghetti with clam sauce, braised short rib pasta, and butternut squash ravioli. I did have a small piece of blue plastic in my spaghetti with clam sauce which was not ideal. I assume it was from whatever the clams come in so did not get to bothered (nor did I want to bring it to the attention of the table), but definitely was visible when placed at the table and staff could have caught it before it got to me. In general, everything was tasty and I would return!

    Great service and yummy food. Marcus was super attentive to all our needs. Had a lovely dinner alfresco What we enjoyed: Baked oysters Vodka oyster shooter Yukon fries with truffle Beef short ribs risotto was creamy and flavorful. Spaghetti with clam sauce had a hint or spice and a good amount of clams. Spaghetti with tomato sauce was also delicious and a huge portion.

    Celebrated dad’s birthday. The food was excellent, especially the appetizers and first plates. The oysters were super fresh, the rockefeller was really creamy, and the ceviche was top tier. And everyone should try the branzino (get over the fish heads, people! It’s its natural state!). For cocktails, the oyster and pearl margarita is a must! Will definitely be coming back to this restaurant even for everyday dining.

    I don't understand why this place isn't packed every night of the week, but I'm so glad it isn't and I've been able to get in there at the last minute for a quick, quiet, delicious meal with my husband, or a last minute happy hour with the girls. The food is fun and delicious. Great service (thank you Linda!). I'm told you definitely need reservations on the weekend, but I've only been there mid-week and have been able to get a table with a few hours notice. I highly recommend. La Mesa needs more places like this!

    Celebrated graduation here. Our server, Barbara was friendly and efficient. She offered menu suggestions for some of the local favorites. Every suggestion was spot on! She even hid our cupcakes so we could surprise our graduate! We started with mussels and oysters which were both devoured by our party of six. We then moved on to salmon, short rib rigatoni, and spaghetti with clam sauce. Those were also well seasoned and perfectly prepared. Next time we are in La Mesa, this is a definite spot we will return to!

    The tomato soup is delicious ! I jad the clams with spaghetti it lacked flavor but Ill go a few more times to check out other things on the menu. The good was good but wasn’t amazing. A little pricey but the service is amazing. It’s hard to find places with great service so hats off lets hope it stays that way.

    I really enjoyed this restaurant, the service was very good and the food tasted exquisite. I had grilled fish with sauteed vegetables in a flavored suckulent butter. My drink was perfect the bartender was very experienced in making any drink a person could think of. I have to give a shout out to my server, she made me feel like a queen. The restaurant was very clean and well kept. If you ever want to go out and have good food, drinks, and top of the line customer service this is the place.

    My fiancé and I enjoyed the quaint attractive setting that Oyster and Pearl provides. They have an abundance of staff who were polite and efficient with their service. The oysters were some of the best we have had to our delightful surprise. For fun try the pepper vodka oyster shooter. It’s packed full of long lasting delicious flavor. We will definitely be back!

    We ordered off the Restaurant Week menu and everything was incredible. Only downside was my entree came out a min after my first course. I barely touched it when they brought of the short ribs. Everything was really amazing though. We plan on going back. If you’re thinking about trying this place, do it. 10/10 recommend

    We’ve dined here a couple of times now and have been very pleased each time. The menu is diverse but with a definite theme. The wine list is small but with excellent selections. The food and service are top notch which is why we will keep coming back. Also, the shishito pepper appetizer is out of this world.
