Sea Level Oyster Bar

Incredible food! Incredible staff! Incredible experience! The location itself is gorgeous and on the water with outdoor seating! My boyfriend and I went here for a date night on vacation in Salem and Boston and this was by far the best restaurant experience we had on the trip and we are foodies. The lobster roll here was the best I’ve had, the raw bar options are amazing and really well priced in my opinion. If you’re looking for seafood please please try this place. If I’m ever back in the area I will be here again. I had such a wonderful time here and the whole experience was just 10/10. It will be one of my top meals of that year.

Eat here! Every single item we ordered was perfect. From the lobster roll to the pimento hamburger to the pizza-we demolished our meals in seconds!!! They were so good. Definitely make a reservation, but this place was true New England. The service was amazing, the food came out quickly and cooked to perfection and I’d return in a second. I highly recommend this establishment.

Love the Scary Mary here! Best bloody Mary’s served w lunch!! Service is a little slow but it’s well worth the wait! Nice restaurant bar - 2 Levels w water views right by the friendship of Salem Merchant ship. Close to the ferry as well. The oysters are always spot on as well!! Great seafood! Great beer selection! Great drinks!

Terrific place for a solid meal down on the Wharf in Salem! Sea Level Oyster Bar is the sister restaurant of Finz next door (one of my favorite spots in town), and they have a lot of great eats to choose from! We had the Fried Pickles - a HUGE portion that is perfect for the pickle lover in your family. The O-Strings were delish - Onion rings cut thin, battered, fried, and paired perfectly with their special sauce. The Garlic Bread Pizza was tasty and a perfect side dish - flavorful thin crust pizza with a delightful roasted buttery herb flavor, chili flakes and Parmesan. Recommended. Street Corn Shrimp Tacos were nuts of yummy goodness - big Cajun style Shrimp combined with creamy street corn and a cilantro lime salsa to die for... well done. The Island Salmon was uber tasty - a jerk rubb

Absolute perfection from start to finish! The stuffed oysters were out of this world — rich, buttery, and bursting with flavor. The lobster roll? Fresh, sweet, and piled high with tender chunks of lobster, exactly how it should be. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, juicy and full of flavor, and every bite just hit right. Even the mocktails were amazing — creative, refreshing, and honestly just as satisfying as any cocktail. The whole experience felt relaxed yet polished and a great waterfront vibe. If you're in Salem and want seafood done right, Sea Level Oyster Bar is it. Every dish was a hit!
