Come heavily armed with patience. \n\n2:30AM: tired, drunk, obnoxious, and hungry people standing around does not make for a pleasant 2 hour wait. There was only 1 cook and 1 waiter/busser/food runner working their asses off, and 1 other person not doing much other than clearing out buckets of dirty plates, attempt to shuck clams, failing, and then getting the cook to do it for him. It is only possible for 6 orders to be cooking at once, and each pot takes around 45 minutes to cook. Almost 3 hours have passed (T_T). At this point, we're just so tired and worn out that nearly nothing would be worth this long of a wait. \n\nTo cap it off, while we were waiting for our orders to finish cooking, they reloaded their pots of gumbo base and pan roast base out front for everyone's viewing pleasure. Not quite something I wanted to see! The gumbo looked like minced up dog food and the pan roast looked like someone's vomit. \n\nStick with the Combination Pan Roast. Imagine a seafood-loaded tomato soup with rice. The Etouffee was excessively salty and nearly inedible.\n\nAll in all, Oyster Bar was not worth venturing off the strip for. However, if you do  decide to go, I recommend going at the beginning of your Vegas trip, when you may have more patience to wait for things.
