The food was delicious and the service was excellent. I am happy to be able to order clam chowder soup during the week, not just on Friday.
February 18, 2020
This place has a great vibe, friendly staff, delicious oysters (in fact everything is delicious including their Spanish coffee and carrot cheesecake)
January 30, 2020
The oysters are always great, as well as the lobster bisque.
December 18, 2019
Awesome crab cakes. Best Spanish coffee in metro Detroit!
September 5, 2019
Sent my food back fish was undercooked and pink,asked for broccoli to be cooked softer because of dental issues sent back was brought back to table cold and hard

Our server was outstanding. But we had a couple of issues with our food not being prepared as ordered. It also took quite some time to have someone come to our table to give us water and take our order, as well for someone to seat us.

FOOD WAS DELICIOUS, BUT I THINK THE COCTAILS ARE OVERPRICED.

The manager came around to make sure our food was was good. After informing him that it was only ok, he went out of his way to make sure it was up to par. Amazing service.
April 13, 2019
Garlic salmon was fantastic. Unfortunately, a dinner salad was $8.50 and a Caesar was $11 so we passed on a side dish.

February 12, 2019
Portion size was EXTREMELY small for the price. I feel it was overpriced even after the $25 gift card was applied. $12 for ONE crab cake appetizer. Years ago you would give more than one for that price!
February 11, 2019
It is a small restaurant...so there might be a wait, but the good and service were great.

I had one glass of wine and have to say it was the shortest pour I have ever had. 7 sips and it was gone. Will return but wont get wine again. Did ask the waitress when she delivered it and she said it is their standard pour. Disappointing.
November 7, 2018
Kimberly was our server. She was attentive and pleasant. The food was excellent and priced reasonably. We dined on a not busy Monday night. Will definitely try it again on a weekend.

Tom’s is not new to us - been visiting for years. Stumbling on the coupon was just a bonus.

Seafood paella and lobster bisque were superb and fresh!!!
December 12, 2017
I think we are older that their regular clients - ( 72 & 75). They were really accommodating even though it was some kind of younger bar hopping night. The service and food were excellent.
December 11, 2017
we used gift reward and it was ok

Frank, the bartender, was excellent. Food is always good.
October 7, 2017
My girlfriend and I enjoyed the Salt Life Sampler, which was an appetizer that I had had for lunch on another visit. Great value! Naomi, our server, provided excellent service. The only negative is that the price of wine-by-the-glass is ridiculous, especially for the size of the pour.
October 7, 2017
Chain restaurants don’t seem to be as accommodating and lack unique items on their menus.
October 6, 2017
We had great service, and the food was delicious!

Lobster rolls were good. Filet medallions only ok. Spinich dip was alright. Nothing really good or great.
August 26, 2017
Food/Waitress was great
August 24, 2017
Tom's is our home away from home. I live in NJ, my boyfriend lives in Michigan. So on my monthly visits this is our go-to!
August 22, 2017
Food was a little dry
August 21, 2017
We shared oysters and a smoked salmon blt. The oysters lacked brine (a bit dry) and the smoked salmon on the blt still had the skin/scales attached, which wasn't noticed until chewing on it. Our server was great but the food was a little disappointing.

Great wait staff and our food was amazing. Fresh, full of flavor and so good! We'll be back!!
July 7, 2017
The food here has gone down badly since we were there about a year ago. The service was good but the parking in Royal Oak is TERRIBLE. Many streets closed and others torn up so unless you are willing to walk a LONG way, stay away from this restaurant and Royal Oak in general. The biggest disappointment was the food though.
July 2, 2017
Viewed menu online and had heart set on a dish that is no longer offered. Staff indicated that item had been discontinued for over a year, yet its still on the online menu.
June 27, 2017
Service and food was great!
June 6, 2017
Fish & Chips were delicious. Soft and flaky texture, just the right amount of breading. Fantastic cocktails, great draft selection.
May 31, 2017
The food was pretty good but with our fish and chips we were given cole slaw. That is pretty normal, right? The problem was that the amount you get is about a thimble of cole slaw. Really? Cabbage is pretty inexpensive. That is just horrible. The fish and chips themselves were good but not great.
May 17, 2017
the waitress was wonderful, very eager to help!
May 9, 2017
Salmon was hot ( part of it was overcooked) vegetables under salmon, although artfully displayed, and were cold. The other dish was good. The clam chowder was unremarkable.Waited a long time for a server. Once they realized we were there, the service was good- it was not crowded, we were seated right away.

Price not a value, even with $25 off
January 6, 2017
The fish and chips was tasteless. And the cup of tea was bought out in a dirty cup. And the spoon was also dirty.
December 27, 2016
Need to have more vegetatarian options on the menu
December 26, 2016
Took a long time to even put in drink order.2nd server took over and service was okay.
December 18, 2016
Our server did not offer us any bread; we had to ask for it and eventually got it after we finished our meals.
November 6, 2016
The only additional feedback was we asked for extra helping of cold slaw which was sparingly given. The waitress stated they were not allowed to give extra. We aksed if we paid for some would she bring us some and she said she may be able to bring us a little. I thought, 'really'. If a customer is willing to pay for something, it should be given without hesitation. That was suprising to us. It's not a good choice for 'date night' as the noise level is through the roof!
October 18, 2016
Server was excellent - his recommendations were on point. Timely service as we had an engagement to attend afterwards, but wanted a good meal before going. Great location
October 16, 2016
Over priced & terrible food!

We've eaten here a number of times. Portion sizes seem to have shrunk. Food quality was OK but not as good as previously.
September 18, 2016
Food is good but the menu selections are limited and the place is very small since they decided to eliminate half the seating and turn it into a pub.

May 8, 2016
We've ordered lobster bisque and have ordered it there before but today there was no lobster in it. The clams poutine was simply french fries smothered in clam chowder. We have definitely had better meals there. It wasn't the service. The restaurant wasn't even busy.
May 1, 2016
Great verity of Entries.
April 11, 2016
This used to be one of our favorite spots, but things have gone down hill from what it was. Prices have gone up, quality has declined. Perch was burned, (too hot skillet) and may have been under warmer too long, Fish & Chips soggy as well as undersized. No potato with one order of perch. Apps pretty skimpy as well for Happy Hour Deal. No lemon, or tarter served with meal. Not that crowded but service not very attentive. Given the cost even with the discount of $25.00 I would be hard pressed to return unless I was sure of some positive changes.
April 4, 2016
Great service. Menu definitely had lots of changes, while I appreciate upgrades (and my meal was delicious... Halibut) I did find it a bit limiting as well. If anyone in your party didn't like seafood only one chix dish as your option.

Every entrée was delicious and exceeded our expectations. Our server was very knowledgeable about the food and drink offerings.
February 22, 2016
Delicious appetizer - oysters and lobster pate. Bummed that the fish n chips lunch portion was a "snack size". Wish they had dinner portion available at lunch. Malt fries were delicious!!!
February 15, 2016
Other than having children with us and being sat right next to bar, the experience was good. Wish there were more child friendly desserts available.
February 6, 2016
$10 per scallop is way too high and food was only warm. An additional $2.50 for liquor on the rocks is too high; did not order "neat" ... already paying premium price for premium liquor.
February 4, 2016
Short rib was not cooked properly, soup needed to be hot and was not, perch and shrimp overpriced for size, good happy hour specials.
January 26, 2016
Once again, service was excellent, server was quite knowledgeable about all menu items and specials, and the food was delicious. Presentation was visually very appealing and expertly prepared.
January 22, 2016
The Lobster Bisque (which is one of my favorites) was excellent. Smooth and creamy. Shrimp and Chips was the special. It was delicious. My partner had Oysters Rockefeller. He said it was the best he ever had. The waiter was friendly and attentive.

December 6, 2015
Good service. Limited menu selection. Small portions high prices
December 1, 2015
Our waiters was so nice
November 27, 2015
we got the crab bruschetta. Could have done 6 crusts instead of cramming all the topping on 3. Could have used same amount of topping on 6 crusts. $14 for 3 little crusts was absurd. I got 2 scallops on top of a bed of veggies. $1/per shrimp for happy hour was OK. The fish and chips was the BEST!!!
October 23, 2015
New menu,staff and chef. Outstanding!
October 18, 2015
New menu items are not all as good as before. Calamari is really "bad" compared to the last chef. Menu print is too small. Small portions are not worth the price. Many descriptions are worded poorly and unable to understand what the food is.
October 5, 2015
New menu consisting of small plates. Food was tasty. Service was excellent.
August 16, 2015
Service was slow. Some got a flyer about the wine and some didn't. Food was good.Very noisy place. I would think a salad would be included with a chicken parm dinner for the price that was. Mostly pasta less chicken. Will not go back.
August 2, 2015
New bartenders have outstanding personalities and provide excellent attentive service. Food quality is excellent, but portions are diminishing and prices increasing, noticeably. Martinis have become overpriced with the surcharge.
August 1, 2015
This is bar food. Not a place to dine ona full dinner menue. Appetizers are thefeature items. i.e. oysters, calamari,etc. Items are over salted and greasy.Servers were pleasant and tried to please.
July 24, 2015
My husband and I both had fish entrees. They tasted very fresh and were prepared perfectly. We loved being able to dine outside on a beautiful summer's evening.
June 30, 2015
My sister and I went yesterday for my birthday. I ordered the perch lunch, she had the michigan salad. We both experienced diaherea. The food was definitely off. I have been going since they opened 25 years ago...hundreds of times. I still have a restaurant.com coupon, but I don't think we'll be back. Too bad!

Amazing outstanding service, and excellent food quality, plating and flavor. Only surprising discovery was that the dessert menu is too limited. Throw an ice cream sundae, bread pudding and chocolate cake on the menu. Had dessert elsewhere.

Everyone from the restaurant made us feel very welcome- the waitress, bartender and owner were very friendly, and the food and service was great.

The chairs Are extremely uncomfortable & table too small

Everything fine but appetizer of baked garlic. Garlic was very small and not really tasty. We've had baked garlic before, and garlic was almost the size of a baseball. Tom's Oyster Bar garlic was VERY POOR.

Bland,boring no big deal food. The cod in my fish tacos was over cooked and my husband's perch was good,but he certainly didn't get many for the price. I can think of many restaurants that I could go to and for the same money get a far better meal! Also, way too noisy in the restaurant!

Incredible food! Drinks a bit pricey. Good wait staff and atmosphere!

Service was A++. Pate was A+. Buffalo Chicken wrap was disappointing. Why not have grilled chicken instead of fried?

Friendly bartenders great food

Service was great, the food was lacking. The calamari was mediocre. I did not like the taste or consistency of the clam chowder. I did not like the red pepper in the crab cakes. The pasta aurora was amazing.

Excellent menu choices and food was delicious. Server was top notch and very friendly.
August 27, 2012
Lobster tails seemed a bit rubbery. Other than that, everything was excellent. Stand-outs were the zuchini and the clam chowder.
August 19, 2012
The oysters are always good! The Spanish coffee is.the best! And we loved everything else from martini's to smoked salmon :-)

Jeff is the best bartender in the Metro Detroit area. He makes every visit not only extremely enjoyable, but a reminder of the consumate understated skill that exists in Detroit. Looking forward to being at "Tom's" and seeing Jeff again! John Dixon

Our server was fantastic. We had one oyster left on the plate and he asked way didnt we eat it and we told him it didnt look right. He ran back and got us another ouster free of charge. That was a nice jesture.

I have been going to Tom's for a very long time, it was my Mother's 86th birthday, and there was no other place she wanted to go. She loves the crab cakes, and the people watching. We will return soon.

Have loved this restaurant for many years. Moved out of RO in 2009 and don't get back as regular as would like. Never disappointed.
June 11, 2012
Food took a while to get out. Crab bruschetta was awesome. The fish tacos were underwhelming.
June 4, 2012
Good meal, but quite noisy, but very busy when we were there, 7:00 on Saturday evening.
June 4, 2012
Bartenders Jeff & Josh are awesome!!!
June 3, 2012
Very mediocre...
April 22, 2012
Would prefer more seating with seat backs.(We sat at a high top stools). Appetizer came late(order not put in) so were not charged which was fair. Otherwise enjoyable visit.

I have been going to Tom's Oyster bar since I moved to Ferndale four years age. I have never had a bad meal, service or experience there. It is one of my favorite places to eat out!!
April 4, 2012
Slow service, poor menu and fair food.
March 31, 2012
Have been coming to Tom's for years. This was the first time we have experienced these problems. It was so bad we will probably not ever return for dinner. Server awful. Food awful - we have NEVER had that happen before.
March 18, 2012
food was hot when served bar drinks my friend said where expensive 2 drinks $13.50 total bill after the $25.00 coupon was 55.56 and we left a cash tip
March 18, 2012
Service was terrible
March 5, 2012
Two orders of fish tacos: one order had no sauce, both orders were very bland and there was more pieces of batter than actual fish. Both orders were served cold and it took 1 hour and five minutes to recieve our food.
February 15, 2012
we had appetizers adn two meals, the crab leggs were "cold" the clam chowder soup was not as good as ususal something was missing, no seasoning and we were truly disappointed and offered no compensation, we just took the rest home and fed it to our pets.
February 6, 2012
Keep $1oyst!Let me know any other deals on big comp sign on 696
February 5, 2012
Our server was excellent and attentive. Our first time there was great and we'll definitely go back.
January 28, 2012
Good food. Nice atmosphere.
January 27, 2012
Spanish coffees are the best!
January 16, 2012
The food was great but they sat us next to the door and we were frozen by the door constantly opening!
December 11, 2011
We no longer live near Toms Royal Oak. If we hadn't had the coupon, we probably would have gone closer to home. However we were glad we made the trip
November 25, 2011
Re first question. Last time visited was 5 years ago. First visited the chain of twenty years ago when it opened on Mack. Still rmains a great experience.
November 18, 2011
Awesome experience and great food! Will definitely return soon!
November 7, 2011
Terrible service- took 45 minutes for our salads, main dish came out cold.
November 1, 2011
Dinner salad vinigarette was great. A healthier sauce would be great with your salmon.
October 22, 2011
Guy is an awesome Server
October 7, 2011
Always a good dining experience at Toms
October 4, 2011
Realize we ate on a Monday evening, however my husband and my dinners were just fair (veg. were lukewarm, no seasoning on potatoes, no bread offered). Just not up to Tom's Oyster Bar standards.Will probably try other Tom's locations.
October 1, 2011
Food was excellent! We will be back!
September 28, 2011
It was a great experience. The coupon worked well.
September 26, 2011
Wonderful experience. Can't wait to go back.
September 25, 2011
Oysters were amazing! We were craving dessert bur not enough variety
September 24, 2011
All the food and beverage was perfect! I treated my daughter to a meal at Tom's, but I will go more often. thank you!
September 23, 2011
Great experience for my birthday.
September 18, 2011
The food was not as tasty or healthy as I expected. The table top was sticky, the waitress seemed to be impatient and not engaged, and overall the dining experience was not enjoyable considering the cost of the adventure. I would not recommnend Tom's Oyster Bar to any of my friends.
September 18, 2011
Nothing spectacular. The only thing I really liked was the clam chowder.
September 10, 2011
Surprised at the price of my salmon. Two prices were listed. The portion looked like it would be the lower price. It was explained that the lower price was the "lunch" price.
September 3, 2011
Thank You!!
September 2, 2011
We all enjoyed our dining experience at Tom's Oyster Bar in Royal Oak. Thank you.
August 19, 2011
Great Peel and Eat Shrimp!
August 17, 2011
Crab cake, clam chowder, n seafood alfrado was excellent!
August 12, 2011
We ordered the sample plate of oysters and our server did not tell us which oysters were which. That was unacceptable - at an oyster bar!
August 12, 2011
The food was excellent but the service was way too slow and it wasn't even crowded.
August 7, 2011
Very pleasant experience.
August 4, 2011
great food and service
August 3, 2011
Service slow & unprofessional.
August 2, 2011
overall we had a great meal and a great time.
August 1, 2011
good service, food was ok not anything great, portions good
July 30, 2011
by the way they use different size bowls (smaller) on the weekend then they do weekdays.$7.50 for a bowl? Wow
July 27, 2011
The food was some of the best I've ever had and the service was fantastic. I will be a regular patron at this restaurant from now on.
July 25, 2011
overpriced food

Tannis was a knowledgable server and bartender. A credit to Tom's.
