Their product (oysters) are fantastic, truly bringing back the memories of my youth and travels in seafood towns around the world. They also are true to advertising in that the size of the oysters are consistent. I wouldn't say that the extra smalls are actually extra smalls but they certainly aren't beef tongues like you get from another distributor. I would rate the extra smalls as smalls but that is a matter of definition.
These are classic Pacific oysters, perfect for oyster chowder or stuffing, and the mediums are perfect for pan frying.
So why would I ding them stars? Shipping, their shipping prices are variable and inconsistent. I made a recent order for Thanksgiving and paid $123 for a $51 order to North Carolina -- they were worth it for the meal but I won't be buying here again -- I made a trial run in early November and the shipping price was high but not double the order cost.

UNTIL- I swung into Goose Point and thought 'guess I'll have to make them myself'. First, for a couple shooters. Oh yeah, set me right for my past troubles in Oregon and California. The retail area as well as the general grounds were clean and well kept. Ordered a dozen to take home and grill. The guy pulled them off the sorting line right away- gave me 15- the only way I could have gotten them fresher was to dive in the bay and get them myself. Brought them home- 150 miles later, slapped them on the grill and they all popped! Oh yeah! I'm home! The quart of shucked were for dessert. My new go to place when anywhere...
