Fresh Seafood Flavor Just Steps from the Action

The counter-style seating allows for quick service, so you won’t miss your opening act.

What People Say

Reviewers rave about the creamy pan roasts and the generous seafood portions. Many guests highlight the bar’s friendly service and the ability to be seated quickly, even on busy nights. The casual vibe and consistent quality keep both locals and visitors coming back. It's especially praised as a hidden gem for seafood in the Reno-Sparks area.

Areas for Improvement

It’s not the place for a quiet, upscale dinner—expect a more lively, no-frills setting. During peak hours, wait times can stretch a bit, especially since seating is mostly at the bar. Also, the menu leans heavily into seafood, so it may not suit every taste.

The Bottom Line

If you're craving bold seafood flavors and a relaxed, quick-service vibe before the show, the Oyster Bar at Nugget Casino Resort checks all the boxes for concert-goers.
