Welcome to Little’s Oyster Bar, located in the heart of Montrose. Our Executive Chef, Jason Ryczek, prepares decadent, hand-selected seafood dishes that are seasonally inspired and focus on freshness. Our menu offers a rotating selection of oysters, shellfish, and other offerings from the shore. Our caviar can be paired perfectly with your choice of cocktail, champagne, or vodka.
At our bar, enjoy exciting craft cocktails and a wine list with a special focus on European wines and bubbles. Our Certified Sommelier has crafted a perfectly curated list of wines from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, and more.
As a tribute to our roots, we have repainted and restored the vintage exterior signage, which is a nod to the location’s opening in 1987 as Little Pappas Seafood House.
Chef Ryczek takes every opportunity to elevate and surprise guests. The team at Little’s takes pride in presenting a concept to Houston that’s new and refreshing – fine dining but not stuffy. Extremely high quality in all areas, yet comfortable. Just like Houston.
Come to Little’s Oyster Bar – we have a seat waiting just for you.

- KNKen Nguyen1 day ago5.0We received excellent service from the moment our host greeted us until we drove off. Alvin demonstrated great intuition by managing our reservation and checking in with us throughout the evening. Crystal provided the best service I’ve experienced in the city so far, thanks to her attentiveness and extensive knowledge on and off the menu. Additionally, I highly recommend that every guest indulge in the curated selection of wines offered by the wine director and head sommelier, Omar. We enjoyed a delightful, mineral-forward Ameztoi Getariako Txakolina Blanco, which paired wonderfully with our seafood dishes. Everything, from the cold oysters and lobster on ice to the silky, decadent jumbo lump crab cakes, was outstanding. My partner and I will definitely return for more milestones and meals in the future. Overall, the exceptional service, dining experience, and beverage program deserve at least a Michelin recommendation or a Bib Gourmand.
- CJCandace JohnsonJul 19, 20265.0From the moment we walked in, to every course we had, the total experience gets 5☆☆☆☆☆ we will be back!
- THTinisha HardingJul 16, 20265.0Everything at this place was fantastic! The best dining experience I ever had. 11 out of 10! Perfect for date nights, Corporate or client dinners. Plenty of menu items to choose from for those that dont want oysters. Every dessert was insanely delicious. Yes. I tried all of the desserts available during my visit. LOL.
- QMQuoc MaJul 11, 20265.0Took family there to mainly try out their oysters, and could not complained about their selection offering. We also had the sturgeon caviar which was very good. We had the tuna, grouper, steak and lamb chops. Every dish was amazing. Our waiter was very attentive and extremely helpful even though the restaurant was fully packed. Overall the four of us truly enjoy every aspect of the restaurant.
- RSRachel SchiesserJul 4, 20265.0Second time dining here yesterday. Everything is on point. I thought often of the book Unreasonable Hospitality because all the staff were above and beyond helpful and pleasant. The cocktails and sommelier’s recommendation were perfect. The seafood is impeccably fresh. Presentation, taste and texture do not disappoint. I’m now ruined for creamed corn because this won’t be easily matched. I’ll be back.
