Bay House Oyster Bar & Restaurant in Erie

Wonderful atmosphere! Beautiful restaurant and bar with a great view of the lake. But honestly, it's the staff! Extremely personable bartenders and waitstaff. Will definitely return.

We came for a small birthday dinner and had a blast. Super conveniently located across from the hotel we were staying at. The drinks, food, atmosphere, and staff were lovely. Our servers, Amber and Ceci, were so personable and fun and John, the owner, popped by for a visit too. Everyone was great and the dinner was just what we were looking for: upscale but not uppity. I got the sirloin with the cognac pepper cream sauce (pictured). It was delicious and the boursin potato croquettes were spot on. Go!

Beautiful atmosphere and decor. I felt like I was out of town in a big city, fancy restaurant... But with a very casual hometown feel.The staff was friendly, inviting, and attentive. The owner even stopped by our table to make sure our experience was up to his standard (it was)I love treating myself to oysters when I travel to the ocean. Having an oyster bar with fresh oysters in Erie, PA, is a game changer for me! There were a variety of West coast and east coast oyster varieties to choose from. If you consider yourself an oyster aficionado, you'll love the subtleties in the flavor profiles of the oysters.The main entrees were served fresh, accurate, and full of flavor. The waiter was knowledgeable of the menu and was able to answer any questions we had.John Russell...
