Even though there were indoor seats available, we were guided to the outdoor seating, which is only available during the day in winter. It was a bit chilly without wearing a jacket. The free raw oyster we received as part of their open campaign was surprisingly large. The six types of baked oysters we ordered were also delicious.

I casually walked into an oyster restaurant, and even on a cold day, the heated terrace was quite nice. I ordered the oyster butter sauté with truffle sauce and chose rice over bread, asking for a large portion of rice. To start, I had an oyster soup and a salad with carrot rilette. The aroma of the oysters was comforting on a chilly day. Next, my dishes arrived: the butter sauté and two fried oysters. The rich butter and truffle sauce paired perfectly with the oysters, and the fried oysters came with a generous serving of tartar sauce. There were also fried potatoes to add even more volume to the meal. The rice was a five-grain variety, making it a healthy choice. The menu was diverse and fun, and I truly enjoyed my time there. Oh, it was delicious! Such a blissful moment. Thank you! I put my hands together and said, "Thank you for the meal!"

Visited on Saturday just after noon. The place was not crowded, and I was able to enter smoothly. There are terrace seats, so it seems to have a wide capacity. ■ Oysters with Truffle Butter Sauce and Fried Oysters - 1,430 yen After placing my order through mobile ordering, I received the salad and oyster soup right away. The salad consisted of a store-bought potato salad and a marinated dish. The soup had a rich oyster flavor, was delicious, and very warming. About 10 minutes later, the main dish arrived. The fried oysters were crispy and juicy, while the butter sautéed ones were plump. They had a Teriyaki-like sauce with truffle flavor. Unfortunately, the French fries were a bit cold. The pickled purple cabbage provided a refreshing contrast. I could choose between rice or bread, so I opted for bread, which was reheated and had a crispy outside and fluffy inside—very tasty. The rice portion size was adjustable. The interior was clean as the restaurant had just opened. Other oyster dishes on the menu looked appealing as well. Payment can be made with various QR codes.

I visited this newly opened restaurant during lunchtime. I was unsure about what to choose, but I decided to order the opening limited offer of 4 pieces of fresh oysters. Here’s what I ordered: - 4 pieces of fresh oysters: 1,100 yen (regular price: 1,848 yen) - Pasta with oysters and Kujo green onions in garlic oil topped with black truffle roe: 1,749 yen - Cold roast beef with truffle sauce: 1,419 yen The 4 pieces of fresh oysters were a mix from Shirokata in Kagawa Prefecture and Kurahashi Island in Hiroshima Prefecture. After squeezing some lemon on them, both varieties were plump, fresh, and creamy with a subtly salty flavor that was absolutely delicious. The pasta was also delightful, with just the right amount of saltiness and a refreshing taste. The restaurant has a lot of terrace seating and a clean, calm atmosphere. The staff provided polite and attentive service. I appreciated that they serve fresh oysters that are purified using deep-sea water, reflecting the restaurant's commitment to quality. This place is especially recommended for its fresh oysters. It's located in the TOKYO TORCH terrace area.

The oyster bar and restaurant "8TH SEA OYSTER Terrace" opened in October at the first floor of the Tokiwabashi Tower in TOKYO TORCH, just a 2-minute walk from Tokyo Station and a 5-minute walk from Nihonbashi Station on the Tokyo Metro. This establishment offers safe, high-quality oysters that can be enjoyed year-round, purified using a unique patented technology with deep ocean water. It is operated by Human Web Co., Ltd., which runs a total of 26 restaurants, including "Gumbo & Oyster Bar," "Kinkaukawa," and "Oyster Table." Oysters, often referred to as the "milk of the sea," have been recognized for centuries as a source of nutrition and energy. However, because of the risk of "contamination," the restaurant has developed its own patented technology and established an oyster purification center in Inujima, Toyama Prefecture. By circulating deep ocean water extracted from a depth of 384 meters for 48 hours within the oysters, they minimize the contamination risk to nearly zero, while maximizing the umami flavor of the oysters. For lunch, the menu includes fried oysters, oyster butter sauté with truffle sauce, two types of oyster pasta, salmon meunière, and sautéed lamb, served with oyster soup, salad, and rice or bread. There’s also an oyster course available. We both ordered the "Tomato Pasta with Oysters, Bacon, Eggplant, and Mozzarella Cheese." For the soup, we had "Oyster Soup," which is rich in oyster flavor with a base of oyster broth and white dashi seasoned lightly with salt. The salad was a "Potato Salad," which was thick and included strips of carrot. The pasta, "Tomato Pasta with Oysters, Bacon, Eggplant, and Mozzarella Cheese," featured simple ingredients: oysters, eggplant, ham, and mozzarella cheese in a tomato sauce. The balance of fresh pasta, tomato sauce, and ingredients resulted in a dish reminiscent of a highly refined Neapolitan pasta. There are also terrace seats available, which would be enjoyable on a sunny day.

Every morning on my way to work, I watched the craftsmen working on the terrace seating, and I thought I would come to eat once it opened. Just two days after the opening, I decided to try it for lunch. Since I was dining alone, I sat at the counter instead of the terrace seat. Everything I ordered was delicious: fresh oysters, grilled oysters, fried oysters, and oyster spaghetti aglio e olio—all were a huge hit!
