Diana's Oyster Grill - Scarborough

Food: 5 StarsService: 5 StarsAmbience: 4 StarsValue: 4 StarsOverall: 4.5 StarsRecently, I had the pleasure of dining at Diana’s Oyster Bar and Grill for a birthday celebration and I must say, the restaurant exceeded my expectations.To start, we indulged in a variety of oysters from the east and west coasts, including Sun Seeker, Marina’s Top Drawer, Lucky Lime, South Bay Blonde, and Glidden Pt, all of which were shucked perfectly and had a fresh and delicious taste. The condiments that accompanied the oysters were also delightful and expertly paired.As appetizers, we ordered the Diana’s Clam Chowder (small, 7.00 CAD) and Appetizer Sampler (for two, 42.00 CAD). With each spoonful of the Clam Chowder, we were greeted with a smooth, velvety texture and a bold flavour that was a perfect balance of savoury and slightly salty. The creamy broth was rich and satisfying, making it the ideal starter for our meal. The Appetizer Sampler was an even bigger hit, offering a diverse range of succulent seafood options that showcased the freshness of the ingredients used. From juicy prawns to crispy calamari and juicy scallops, each bite was a taste explosion that left us eager for more. The sampler was a true testament to the culinary expertise of the chefs at Diana’s Oyster Bar Grill and a perfect reflection of their commitment to using only the finest and freshest ingredients in their dishes.The entrées at Diana’s Oyster Bar and Grill did not disappoint, as I was thoroughly impressed with my Grilled Atlantic Salmon (30.00 CAD). The salmon was cooked to perfection, with a crisp skin on one side and a tender, flaky filet on the other. The shiitake and fennel cream sauce that was paired with the salmon was a perfect addition, adding depth of flavour to an already delicious dish.Additionally, the cocktails were a highlight of the meal, especially for those who enjoy sweet alcoholic beverages. I tried Blue Hawaii and Under The Sea (10 each) and was impressed by their flavours, although those who prefer a stronger liquor taste may find these cocktails lacking in potency. Overall, the food at Diana’s Oyster Bar and Grill was delicious and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious seafood meal.I would like to point out that when making a reservation, it’s important to be clear about your seating preference, whether indoor or outdoor patio. During my visit, I made a reservation for 7 PM, but we had to wait an additional 20 minutes for seating as all indoor tables were occupied and only outdoor patio seating was available.Our server, Wilson, was a true gem, providing excellent recommendations and being attentive, friendly, and prompt. He checked in on us regularly to ensure that we were having a pleasant experience and the food was to our liking. He truly made the dining experience exceptional. The seating at Diana’s Oyster Bar and Grill was both comfortable and charming, as we were seated in a private booth area.Additionally, the restaurant offers free parking in their lot. The seafood market next door, Diana’s Seafood Delight, operates a food service distribution center, providing quality fish and seafood to some of Toronto‘s top hotels and restaurants.In conclusion, I was thoroughly impressed and pleased with my experience at Diana’s Oyster Bar and Grill. I cannot wait to return and savour their delectable offerings once again.kellychan360Parking: Free parking available

Diana 's Oyster Bar and Grill is a place specialized in oysters. The waitress recommended three types: Lucky Lime, which is smooth and delicate; Sun Seeker, which is average; and Flip Tide, which is the thickest and most satisfying, and my personal favorite. The tuna tartare was neither outstanding nor disappointing, and it came with tasty crispy flat bread. The beet salad with apple and walnut was appetizingly sweet. They don 't have a wide variety of cocktails, but I recommend trying the blue-colored Under the Sea cocktail, which has a lovely lychee flavor, although it 's slightly on the sweeter side.

Any appetizers or main dish will get you the $1.25 Malpeque oysters! Very reasonable in terms of quality and price. Service was great and overall enjoyed the experience.

A great local seafood spot for us loving in East York and Scarborough. We decided to indulge and have the seafood platter for two. Definitely enough for 3 people. Overall, everything was pretty tasty and fresh. I would say that instead of serving platter with fried rice, a simple pilaf rice would do. Not sure if I’ll order this platter every time I visit, but it’s nice once I a while.

We love this restaurant, they are so friendly and every meals that we had this restaurant have been so so great. This place reminds us restaurants somewhere in Europe, they let you take your time to enjoy your meal from the begging to the end. Highly recommend!
