About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Innovative
  • Great for outdoor dining
L & E Oyster Bar is in the heart of Silver Lake in Los Angeles, California and serves dinner as well as weekend brunch. Upstairs is the raw bar with plenty of oysters, snacks, cheese and seafood to accompany beer, wine or cider. Of course, oysters are also available on the dining room main level. Oysters and other seafood can be served in many different ways. At L & E Oyster Bar, a few are well covered, including raw, steamed, smoked, grilled and fried. For example, the smoked mussels or smoked trout salad are very popular choices, as are the grilled oysters in South Carolina mustard BBQ sauce with crispy cipollini. L & E Oyster Bar doesn�t leave out the landlubbers who will enjoy the burger or the steak frites, a 10-ounce NY prime that was free range, grass fed.

    L&E is a wonderful place to get together with a small group. The food menu options are just enough for some to share and the drink menu was also nice with different craft beer choices. I enjoyed Happy Hour before having dinner and the 90's R&B/Hip Hop was also a bonus with family/friends I had not seen in sometime. I will definitely look forward to coming back to L&E.

    Eat outside - it's too noisy in. The menu is short and to the point - I personally like that as everything on it is obviously carefully thought out. Wine is V v expensive. Lucky teetotallers. I would definitely go again - it's not too annoyingly hip for squares, thank God.

    My friend had the west coast oysters and gave rave reviews. I had the asparagus salad and bronzino. I left still hungry. The $ 32.00 very small grilled fish came with no veggies or potato. The wedge salad came with two wedges....but the server never told us there were two wedges -- we could have shared. My other friend had the salmon, and it came with a large mixed green salad, after he had already ordered the wedge salad. Server did not do a good job of explaining what came with each plate, or what did not come with each plate. Was not a good value for the money. Might come back for expensive oysters only.

    Great spot for a date with an oyster lover. Intimate but trendy. A little expensive but totally worth it.

    Best place in LA for oysters. great variety of Pacific and Atlantic, from briny to buttery, and a wined list tuned to the food. The fired oysters are nearly perfect - you'll want more.

    This place is an enigma for my wife and I. We want to like it but it won't let us. Oysters are very good but that's about it. My steak sandwich was a bit chewy and her salmon was about maybe 5 oz yet cost $28. Plus they charge for plain facet water w/o telling you. Whatever fund that money goes for, I think its only fair they ask you before hand if you want to contribute. Charging for plain water is wrong period. Doing it without you know it makes it even worse IMO. For the money I think there are far better places to eat.
