History
Established in 1977.
J’s Oyster was established in 1977.
A letter from Janice:
Over the years I have traveled throughout the United States. I enjoy visiting the many unique restaurants that feature local specialties… from Kansas City steaks to the delicious seafood at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco… from the gourmet delights of the Montpelier room in our nation’s capital to Modesto Lanzone’s great Italian cuisine in Ghiradelli Square… but my greatest fascination has been with the raw bars at the oyster houses from California to Maine — and Florida to Maine. But alas, Maine, the greatest seafood state, had none! Until now.
For over two years, I worked to design my oyster bar — the layout and the location. Many, many recipes were tried before we developed our menu. Then came the hardest part of all — finding good, efficient, friendly people.
Now it’s all together… good food, good drinks, and good people in a unique waterfront atmosphere.
I hope you enjoy my dream.
