About this restaurant

Innovative

Hot spot

In Pittsburgh, the Muddy Waters Oyster Bar works via the quote by Andrew Carnegie that �the first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell.� All of the food at Muddy Waters Oyster Bar is fresh and made to order with an adept kitchen staff working to shuck, crack and peel some of the finest shell fish and seafood around. A mix of classic New England style seafood and Cajun cuisine dot the menu with variety. Guests to Muddy Waters Oyster Bar will find fried green tomatoes and boudin sausage on the menu next to Rockefeller oysters and Clyde Mays� Caesar salad. A selection of sandwiches and po�boys and a variety of large plates round out the menu.

Had an amazing meal - salmon with fall hash and butternut squash was unbelievable. Would go back every week for the same meal. It was a little pricy but worth it.

Oh. My. God. I love this place. Nothing can beat the price of the Happy Hour and the food is simply outstanding!!!! The oysters are fresh, and not at all sandy, the corn bread and the hush puppies are the best cures for a carb craving, and the cocktails are worth checking out too! It is already my go-to place when I want some lovely oysters and some down-to-earth Cajun cuisine!

Muddy's is great! I cannot recommend it enough. Since moving to PIttsburgh from New York, we have been in search of some good places to go to eat and enjoy a regular date night. This is the place we know we will be returning to again and again- the food is outstanding, the menu changes so you never get tired of it, the cocktails are amazing and service is friendly. Even if oysters is not your thing, head out for an amazing fried chicken dish, or a gumbo, or just have fried green tomatoes and corn bread. You will not be disappointed.
