    Went for Mother's Day, were seated promptly, and our server was with us in a flash. The meal was delicious and service, even on a busy day, was very good. We had oysters and fully-loaded Bloody Mary's to start. We are picky about our seafood, but the oysters were amazing (both the raw and the fried one in our Bloody Mary). Rest of the meal was equally memorable, lobster club salad and fried oyster plates were all great follow-ups to our oysters. Lobster salad had big chunks of flavorful lobster and the fried oysters were delicious! Definitely recommend, and we will be going back.

    King St Oyster Bar has one of the best happy hour menus around! Huge food list with options for all at good prices. We had a large group so we sampled almost everything and it was all really good. Also loads of inexpensive cocktails and beer options. Our sever made great recommendations and checked in often to bring additional drinks and clear plates. Overall a great experience; it will definitely be a regular spot for us now!

    We went for brunch and decided to stick with the brunch menu. We both ordered the steak burrito, and it was lacking a bit in flavor. The small side of fruit was a nice touch, but next time I think we will stick with ordering a ton of oysters (yum!) and one of the delicious salads. Still an overall bargain when it comes to dining at Park Potomac and one my faves - will always come back.

    Consistently good food. Wait staff not always that attentive during busy hours. We have sampled many items and they have all been delicious.
