Have passed this place many times but because it is setback from the facade we never knew it was there. I discovered it on social media and was intrigued by the oysters at Happy Hour. My partner took advantage of the Rhode Island Oysters and clams on half shell. She loved them. I had the Wagyu "sliders" which were great. I was a little disappointed in the stuffed clams. I think there was too much Old Bay added to the dish. Service by both Brian our bartender and Bill the "sultan of shucking" was outstanding. We got there at 4:15 and it was fairly empty. By the time we left the bar was completely full and dining room was filling up, and that was on a Tuesday. I think the Happy Hour was a big hit. We absolutely will be back.

We have been here for happy hour and dinner a few times. Usually we sit outside. The wait staff are always pleasant and attentive and usually don't miss a beat. Best place in town for oysters. The mussels on the current menu are the best I have ever had.

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience here. We got there about 8:30 on a Friday night and they were busy, but we managed to sit at the bar near the shucker station. The bartender, the shucker, and all the staff were absolutely fantastic. The oysters, little necks, tuna tartare, and the entrees were delicious and out of this world. I can't believe we don't eat here more often. We will definitely be back in the near future. I 100% recommend this restaurant.

We ate here last night for the first time. Everything was so good! I tried the oyster sampler, the gazpacho and the scallop entree. It was all so good but the scallop meal in particular was probably the best way I’ve ever seen scallops prepared. Our waiter Cesar was really nice.

We love the food and service at Liv’s! Wonderful ambiance, we had shrimps, mussels, seared tuna with drunken noodles, salmon, salad with bacon and some amazingly delicious chocolate dessert! Wow! Can’t wait to go back! Thank you Liv’s ❤️

We made it in right at opening for happy hour. AMAZING. The food, the service, the atmosphere, all top notch. I would suggest reservations if you go around dinner time, because by the time we left they place was really filling up. Highly recommend.
