Market Street Oyster Bar

Best Atmosphere. I used to rely on Market Street for a great Sunday Brunch experience-I loved their New York Steak with Eggs Benedict. Unfortunately, after several horrible experiences with the servers I refuse to return. I am a server and am aware of time frames considered reasonable for greeting a table, getting drinks out, taking orders, and receiving food; the last time I was there we waited over ten minutes to be greeted by our server, after she passed our table 4 times I finally hailed her down and asked to be served. She was not apologetic or friendly. It took over another 10 minutes to receive or drinks- when we finally received our food the Eggs Benedict arrived with ham after I had specifically requested no ham. It took almost 2 hours from the time we arrived to finish our experience. More than anything else the consistently bad service has dissuaded me from returning to this restaurant. It's a shame it used to be a nice place to go for Brunch- now I go to Hopper's or Ruth's Diner...service and food are much better at these places.…

What Happened? Bad service - Sub-Par Food. This restaurant and the original location downtown used to be the ONLY places to get decent seafood in the city. In fact, we liked it so much that we held our wedding rehearsal dinner there. Over the past two years, we havent visited as frequently since we started a family. But we have gone enough to notice a BIG change at Market Street. The staff is certainly not interested in attending to the patrons and our last meal there took so long to arrive that we had to wolf down our expensive sub-par food to make the late movie. And what's the new menu all about? Many quality selections were removed and you're pretty much out of luck if you want any sort of combination. The "specials" are senseless and priced almost identically to similar items on the menu. Unfortunately, quality has really taken a dive. A crab leg served to me on a recent trip was obviously discolored and bad. Of course, they replaced it when I cracked the smelly disgusting thing. But, as far as I'm concerned, it should have never made it past the kitchen trash can. Fish portions are smaller and filler portions are way up. And, the prices certainly aren't going down. I'm willing to pay top dollar for quality seafood and I used to sing praises of this once great seafood restaurant in Utah. Now I guess I'll have to go to Red Lobster or some other chain and deal with their mass produced seafood. At least you get what you pay for.…

SERVICE IS TERRIBLE, FOOD IS NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE NO LONGER A GREAT PLACE TO DINE. We used to go here after mass to have brunch. The last 5 times have been a disappointment to say the least. The wait staff acts like they are above serving you. I thought that was their job. they are so busy talking with each other that they have little time for the customers. You get one chance to have your order taken, tell they you haven't' had time and they will get right back to you, in about 25 minutes. Don't ask for a special order, as it will not be done and it you risk sending it back, you have to wait for the Pope or the Prophet to grant it. The last time we were there we didn't have an hour to wait for a table so we sat at the counter, big mistake, sat right next to the Kitchen and got to see the time and preparation that our orders go through. they scoop everything out of a already cooked pan and throw it on the plate and then it sits under a heat lamp while another grunt slaps on another part of the order, then back to the heat lamp to wait for the servers to decide which one is theirs, oh by the way not all the so called cooks like to wear gloves. Way over priced food is not that good, and the service it terrible. I will take Jim's Restaurant on 4100 so and redwood any day for breakfast. Maybe if more of you sheep complained and didn't follow the bell the service and food would match the prices.…
