It's 4:30 pm and I imagined it would be empty, but both the first and second floors are almost fully booked. What a surprise, it's incredibly popular. I knew it would be crowded on weekday nights, but I never expected to struggle on a Saturday at 4:30 pm. The first floor is lined with impressive oysters. The counter seats on the second floor were barely available. There are no partitions, and each seat is quite narrow, so I'm not sure how it is in terms of COVID, but I wonder if partitions really make a difference. The customers are mostly trendy-looking people. Maybe it's because it's Saturday evening. However, gradually as the night falls, more calm adult customers are starting to arrive. Maybe it was just the influence of Saturday evening. The menu is listed at the bottom. Brooklyn Lager (860 yen) - There are several types of craft beers available. I didn't know Brooklyn Lager was such a dark beer. The appetizer is prosciutto. Bottle of white wine (6,900 yen) - I thought white wine would go well with oysters, so I quickly changed to a bottle of wine. There are quite a variety of wines on the list, and the prices are on the higher side. Oysters 6 pieces (3,000 yen x 2) - They arrived promptly. Two sets of 6 pieces of oysters. It used to be 2,480 yen, but it became 3,000 yen a year ago and the price hasn't changed since. Whenever I come to Osteria, I always order this 6-piece set for myself. There's no other option. I really want to eat 12 pieces by myself because each one tastes different and it's fun and delicious. Even if I think "Oh, this is delicious!" I end up eating each one in one bite, and since I can only order one type per person, I feel a bit reluctant. That's also good. I enjoyed the raw oysters quickly, but the latter part was not a walk in the park either. The side dishes are also quite good. Salmon and avocado tartare (860 yen) - The taste is as expected. It may not be a recommendation. Gooey Gruyere cheese omelette (690 yen) - A reasonable omelette. The Gruyere cheese's flavor and stretchiness are nice. It might be good as a warm dish. Clam chowder New England style (760 yen) - You can choose between clams and oysters, Osteria style. The captain chose oysters. It's rich and delicious. Oysters and shiso risotto (1,630 yen) - A popular menu since the establishment. Shiso works like basil. This is indeed delicious. The grilled prosciutto adds saltiness, and the pepper gives a spicy kick. Highly recommended. Homemade sausage of Hagi Chiku pork (990 yen) - Finally, I wanted to eat something meaty, so I ordered the sausage. Under the hot sausage, there is a bed of mashed potatoes. The quality for under 1,000 yen is fantastic. This is also recommended. There are several oyster bars in Shinjuku, but this is the first one that comes to mind. [Order] As listed above, 10,000 yen for one person.

I added fresh oysters to a 5000 yen course meal, and after having 4 drinks, the total came to around 10000 yen. There were about 10-20 different types of oysters to choose from, and it was hard to decide, but the staff recommended some for me. The course was all about oysters and everything was delicious. Among them, the finale of shiso and oyster risotto was outstanding. The strong flavor of the shiso combined with the surpassing essence of the oysters made it a must-try dish at the restaurant.

I visited this restaurant again because it was very delicious and had a great atmosphere last time. They served me soup before the meal to prevent my stomach from getting too cold after eating oysters. The soup of the day was seaweed. I had a set of one glass of sparkling wine and one fresh oyster (limited to one per person), a tasting platter of 12 fresh oysters, individual orders of rock oysters, oyster and shiso leaf risotto, oyster fry, black oyster fry, baked oysters wrapped in roast beef, and baked oysters with truffle sauce. The last three dishes were selected as winners of an in-house contest. I wanted to try everything else on the menu too because they all looked delicious. They have a wide variety of drinks, so you can enjoy pairing them with different dishes. The pasta and garlic shrimp looked delicious, and the meat and fish dishes also looked tempting, so I would love to come back to try them all. ♡

It is a stylish bar-like establishment located in a corner of Shinjuku Sanchome, a relatively new place. We were seated at the counter and enjoyed a happy time with oysters and wine. Both red and white wines were delicious. There were about 10 types of oysters, including rock oysters. It was a bit disappointing that we couldn't eat a lot because it was our second stop. They also offer all-you-can-eat oyster fries on certain days. They have oyster gratin, ahi poke, and more. I would like to go back again.

When you suddenly crave oysters, this place is a go-to spot. In addition to oysters, there is a wide variety of fish and meat dishes available. The selection of oysters from various regions was impressive, with options ranging from sweet to refreshing, light to rich. I indulged in oysters non-stop.

The oyster bar, which is part of a chain, has poor cost performance. I wish they had more variety of beers. The staff's service is good. The uni pasta lacks the taste of uni, and for 2000 yen, it's too expensive. The drinks are also overpriced, so I probably won't be coming back.

We used this restaurant for entertaining our business clients. They had a wide variety of fresh oysters, both raw and rock oysters, which was quite impressive. We started with a toast with beer (Heartland) and then enjoyed some wine. The ordering options for raw and rock oysters were diverse, and since rock oysters are currently in season, we ordered a set of 6. We also ordered pickles, omelettes, and other dishes. The sea urchin dish looked amazing and tasted great with just the right amount of saltiness. It was so fresh and natural that it didn't need any extra seasoning. Since our clients loved sea urchin, we also ordered sea urchin pasta, which they really enjoyed. It was a successful entertaining experience, and we look forward to using this restaurant again in the future. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

Oyster bar with 3 floors in Shinjuku San-chome. Had a meeting with a senior colleague from work after a few years. They recommended the 3-point oyster platter for 1,800 yen. The oysters were varied and delicious, and we enjoyed them in the recommended order to appreciate the differences. The large oysters were particularly good. The seaweed soup served as a starter was so tasty that we wanted more as a perfect way to end the meal.

There were plenty of delicious fresh oysters available, with a wide variety to choose from. The menu items other than fresh oysters were also tasty, but the prices were a bit on the higher side, possibly due to the location. However, as an occasional treat, it was very satisfying as a special dinner outing.

Ostrea offers a good balance of oyster variety and cost. I made a reservation for the idol time, but was seated in a cramped space which brought down my excitement. Even though there were only 2 free customers, they were using a spacious table. The potato fries were thin and average. The oysters were delicious. The set with fried oysters, gratin, and garlic sauté may not have been necessary. I wanted to try the hojicha crème brûlée, but couldn't due to the 2-hour time limit. One glass of champagne and two glasses of wine cost a little over 15,000 yen. It's a decent place if you're just there for the oysters, but it feels like it's missing something. The Ginza branch had better service, and I had a more pleasant dining experience there.

〈Background〉This restaurant has multiple locations in Tokyo, and I had visited their stores in Akasaka and Shinbashi before, which were very delicious. This time, I decided to visit their Shinjuku Sanchome location. It was a busy night on a weekday, and we didn't have a reservation, but luckily there were two seats available at the counter. 〈Food〉We ordered a platter of 6 assorted fresh oysters. Each oyster had a different flavor profile, some creamy and others with a strong sea taste, but all of them were incredibly fresh and delicious. We also decided to try the "Seafood Gratin Risotto with Homemade Consomme" based on the recommendation. The dish was beautifully presented with generous portions of shrimp, oysters, salmon, and salmon roe. The consomme and crispy rice complemented the seafood flavors perfectly, and it was incredibly tasty. We also ordered the Chicken Liver Pate with Melba Toast, Tomato Oyster Chowder, and Omelette, all of which were delicious. The quality of the food exceeded our expectations, and this restaurant is highly recommended for a return visit.

Three types of oyster medley platter for ¥1,530 (photo x2). The restaurant has a stylish exterior and offers oysters from around the world. They start with a complimentary consomme soup. The recommended starter is a platter of 6 fresh oysters for ¥3,000, accompanied by a glass of white wine. Eating the oysters around the clock enhances their flavor, rich in minerals. The grilled oysters are always topped with truffles or sea urchin, and today we ordered the medley platter, which included garlic butter grilled oysters, oyster gratin, and oyster fry. The oyster fry was delicious with its plump texture, and the tartar sauce was also tasty. The fried food was not to be missed. The oyster and shrimp rich Americaine sauce pasta was also excellent, with the rich sauce from the lobster shells coating the linguine. It pairs well with a light red wine.

✨✨＊＊Located in Shinjuku Sanchome, Ostrea is a friendly restaurant with staff who love oysters! When I ordered 6 pieces of fresh oysters, the owner kindly gave me 2 extra pieces as a bonus. Thank you so much! They always have over 10 different types of oysters, each with a unique taste. My favorite was the Edo-style oyster in the bottom right of the photo - it was the richest and most flavorful. I also tried the grilled oysters with truffle butter and sea urchin butter, both of which had a delightful aroma even before I took a bite. These flavors truly satisfy oyster lovers' expectations. Reservations can only be made through their official website, but their Happy Hour oyster discounts are really worth it, so be sure to book through their website if you plan to visit.❤︎"@ostrea_shinjuku3 【Store Information】 Ostrea oysterbar&restaurant Shinjuku Sanchome Branch 050-5597-4706 1-3-5 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo https://tabelog.com/tokyo/A1304/A130401/13170910/ #Ostrea #OstreaShinjukuSanchome #ShinjukuSanchomeGourmet #ShinjukuSanchome #ShinjukuSanchomeLunch #ShinjukuSanchomeCafe #ShinjukuSanchomeIzakaya #ShinjukuSanchomeDinner #ShinjukuSanchomeBar #oysters #oysterbar

Visited the oyster specialty store Osteria in Shinjuku Sanchome. Osteria has stores in Shinjuku Sumitomo Building, Ginza Corridor, Akasaka Mitsuke, Shinbashi, and Roppongi. All of their stores are stylish and chic oyster bars with a variety of oysters displayed. During the winter season, they offer a lineup of fresh oysters, and the oysters I tried were as follows: - Milkagaki from Fukuoka Itoshima, light and refreshing - Atsari-tekiya Kaki from Mie Shima, light - Specials Tsudau from Hyogo, light and rich - Edomae Oyster from Chiba, light and rich - Thick Emon from Hokkaido Akkeshi, strong oyster aroma I also tried other dishes such as fried oysters and various oyster dishes, all of which were delicious. I indulged in oysters and wine, spending a little over 10,000 yen per person by ordering a la carte. Highly recommended. Thank you for the meal.

I went for the first time because it was recommended by many people. It was almost full on a weekend night and very lively. In addition to a tasting of 12 different types of fresh oysters, we also ordered various other dishes, all of which were delicious. I was very satisfied!!! I want to go again soon.

On this day (July 30th), I went to Shinjuku Sanchome with my friends. We decided to visit Oysterbar & Restaurant Shinjuku Sanchome, as I was craving for some oysters. This place offers various cooking styles and has a good selection of drinks. We ordered lightly, as we planned to move on to the next place after. We started with oyster fries and grilled oysters. For drinks, we had "just draft beer". The draft beer is a must-have. When it arrived, I happily took a sip. About 15 minutes later, the oysters finally arrived. They were quite generous in portion. Although I didn't know the origin, they tasted fresh and lively even when eaten raw. We started with the fried oysters, enjoying them with salt, tartar sauce, and other condiments in that order. They were absolutely delicious - fluffy and juicy! The flavor was bold and satisfying. I would definitely want to have them again. Next, we tried the grilled oysters. They had a sweet taste, probably due to being grilled. Squeezing lemon and sprinkling salt made them even more delicious. I also tried them raw and it was an exquisite taste, truly impressive! What a great start to our dining experience. I would love to visit again. By the way, I preferred the fried oysters. Let's go again. Thank you for the meal~! #ShinjukuGourmet #ShinjukuSanchomeGourmet #OysterHouse #TokyoGourmet #TokyoGourmetClub #Oysters #WantToConnectWithFoodies

I visited for a leisurely Sunday lunch. The service from the female staff was very pleasant and I had a relaxing time. The distance they kept was just right, not too close but not too far. It felt like winning the jackpot to experience this at a casual restaurant in town. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Shinjuku Sanchome. There are some nice shops gathered around here. White wine goes well with oysters. They also have Brooklyn Lager, which is good. The assorted oysters (6 pieces, all domestic) are all different and all good. The oyster and sea urchin grilled dish is a must-try. The atmosphere is great, perfect for a second stop.

◇Visited in February 2022◇Ostrea Shinjuku Sanchome Store◇Located about a 2-minute walk from Shinjuku Sanchome Station, I met up with a friend after a long time to enjoy some end-of-season oysters. We started off by ordering the classic oyster platter with 6 pieces, along with a Caesar salad. What I love about the platter is that they always provide a variety of oysters ranging from light to rich in flavor. Starting with the lighter ones allows you to appreciate the different flavors each oyster offers. We then moved on to the truffle butter-grilled oysters, uni butter-grilled oysters, the richest Senpokuseki oyster available that day, and my favorite milk oyster served raw. To finish, we had Australian lamb steak and uni cream spaghetti. While this place offers a wide variety of oysters, other menu items sometimes lack that extra punch and are not as memorable. If they could enhance their menu, I would definitely visit more often. Nonetheless, it's still a place I frequent regularly (laughs).

Oyster bar in Shinjuku Sanchome. They offer over 10 different types of oysters from various regions in Japan and abroad, allowing you to compare and enjoy different flavors. Depending on the season, you can also try rock oysters. In addition to oysters, they have a variety of food items such as sausages, pasta, and ahi poke, making it a great choice for those who are not fond of oysters. The seating is divided into two floors with counters, making it easy for solo diners to visit. You can clearly taste the differences when comparing oysters. It is a reliable oyster bar where you can enjoy fresh and delicious oysters.

I have tried a variety of fresh oysters, and while my memory is a bit fuzzy, I remember that the Australian oysters were the most delicious. The oyster gratin, on the other hand, seemed to have lost the original taste of the oysters, so much so that I thought it might be better to just place steamed oysters on top of the gratin. Nevertheless, the gratin itself was delicious.
