Overview

Oyster Bay is a well-regarded restaurant in Mysore, known primarily for its extensive menu that features coastal Indian seafood alongside a variety of other cuisines.

This al fresco section, with its greenery and relaxed lighting in the evening, creates a pleasant dining environment, making it popular for family dinners and social gatherings. The atmosphere is generally unhurried and sociable. Visitors can expect a diverse menu that includes Indian, Tandoori, Chinese, and some Continental dishes. While it serves a wide range of options, the restaurant has built its reputation on seafood preparations like prawn ghee roast, fish tawa fry, and various curries. It's a place people go for a complete meal experience rather than a quick snack, balancing food quality with a comfortable ambiance.
