We’re more than oysters - we’re Colorado's best seafood restaurant! Opened 2017, this is Blue Island Oyster Bar & Seafood's flagship location. Our approach is to create honest food and drinks and serve them in a comfortable, casual environment. The restaurant’s culture is inspired by memories of growing up in coastal towns with families of oyster farmers and fishermen. Like them, we strive to bring you superb hospitality and delicious food with a commitment to the freshest seafood at reasonable prices. To ensure this commitment of quality, we’ve partnered with Chris Quartuccio of Blue Island Shellfish Farms in Long Island, NY to bring you nearly daily shipments of seasonal oysters and seafood, offering favorites such as Steamed Mussels, Lobster Rolls, Clam Chowder, Crab Cakes, and fish like halibut, Atlantic cod and salmon, to name a few. We invite you in for dock-to-dish dining at its best!

The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was nice and not too upscale. I highly recommend this place. The noise level also wasn’t bad. I was able to have a conversation with my significant other and didnt feel like we had to talk loudly. The wait staff was polite, friendly and efficient. I highly recommend the lobster roll or the mahi mahi BLT

Everything was great as usual except the lobster in the knuckle sandwich was not as good as it has been on several other visits. It almost appeared to be imitation lobster…
