What Steven Marterer likes about Oyster Express:
Small oyster bar in Chinatown. Had variety of oysters from BC, PEI and elsewhere. The happy hour oyster for 2.50 each was a bit bland and unexciting. The favorite was the Gorge Inlet which was larger in size and tastier than the other options. The fried oyster was really good too. Would rate it higher if was bit cheaper in prices.

Delicious! But be careful with the oil and ensure it is fresh as the chips and oysters were cooked in old oil. I will return as the raw were amazing.

Oyster Express in Chinatown is a cozy treasure with a great selection of fresh oysters from various regions. While the happy hour oysters were a bit underwhelming, the Gorge Inlet oysters stood out as a favorite. The clean shucks and friendly service set this spot apart, making it a must-visit for oyster lovers. With reasonable prices and a charming atmosphere, Oyster Express is a hidden gem worth uncovering again and again.
