Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Big Al's Oyster Bar @ The Orleans is a "hidden gem" in Las Vegas, known for its "fantastic pan roast" and "excellent Boston Clam Chowder." While some miss the fresh mojitos and find the menu limited, the quick service and delicious seafood, like "great oysters and other delights," keep regulars returning.

    Food was excellent. But the Big Al’s mojito is a canned drink, not a bartender cocktail and was not good. We mentioned it to the waitress and the cost was removed from our bill. Good public relations to make it right. I would highly recommend eating here. Great food and a willingness to make it right for the customer We had hush puppies, steamed mussels, Caesar salads and gumbo. All excellent

    Boston Clam chowder was very good. Shrimp and grits were good, not outstanding. Skip apple pie for dessert.

    Big Al’s is a must when we come to The Orleans! Sometimes more than once during our stay! We have been coming for years and are never disappointed. Laura the assistant food and beverage director is a hands on manager. She takes care of everyone and pays attention to details. Many times I have ordered the crawfish boil to take back to Arizona and she has it packed specifically to be transported. Miss Saba has been there for years and we always request her. Her service is exceptional. Her bright smile and personality will make anyone feel special! Thank you for your years of excellent service. Highly recommend everything on the menu. Great job to all the team involved!!!!

    This is the go-to place in Las Vegas. Great oysters and other delights! Forget Palace Station--the two hour wait is NOT worth it. (Plus selection of oysters was minimal).

    The pan roast was fantastic. My husband had the crab cakes and did not offer me a bite… that is how good they were!
