Oyster Quotes

Best In The World!
"Bluffton oysters are better than any oyster in the world. I don't care where you go, I can pick out the Bluffton oysters in a sample." - Cecil Reynolds, Bluffton native
The Oyster Roast Rules
"What on the other hand, can awaken less consciousness of warm affection than an oyster? Who would press an oyster to his heart, or pat it, and want to kiss it? Yet nothing short of its complete absorption into our own being can in the least satisfy us." - Samuel Butler

Did You Know?

Built on oyster shells!

The Bluffton Oyster Company building, recognized as a historic structure during a recent survey, is as much a part of Bluffton's history as the Card House and the Church of the Cross. Located at the end of Wharf Street on the pristine May River, it is built on shells from previous shucking operations over the last two hundred years.

Close To Perfection

Many people have enjoyed the famous "Oyster Roasts and Low Country Boil" on the hill overlooking the May River. As the famous author of "Prince of Tides", Pat Conroy puts it: "May River oysters are close to perfection!"

Many people who live for decades in the Lowcountry never understand the essence of coastal life... They don't truly understand man's unique relationship with nature. Tyron Smith did. - Carolina Morning News

    How’s Our Catering?

    February 18, 2026

    Our recent Taste of Bluffton: Lowcountry Edition was truly a perfect Bluffton night — incredible weather, fun entertainment, and meaningful community connections throughout the evening.
    The highlight, of course, was the fresh, local seafood — delicious May River oysters and local shrimp that perfectly showcased the flavors of the Lowcountry.
    Bluffton Family Seafood brought both expertise and hospitality to the event, catering a large-scale crowd with such grace and professionalism. Your team is a true delight to work with and incredibly accommodating – even when welcoming more guests than anticipated.
    Thank you for your partnership in making the evening such a success.

    Tina and her team at Bluffton Oyster Company were great to work with. They arrived on time, set everything up smoothly, and kept each station well stocked and hot throughout the event. Even with a crowd of 200 people, there was more than enough food, and everything was delicious — from the shrimp and oysters to the Lowcountry boil and BBQ. I’d happily recommend them for any catered event..

You brought every condiment we could ever have needed and handled every detail with such care and ease. You truly went above and beyond, making the celebration unforgettable! Thank you for your hard work and going out of your way to put so much heart into what you do.

    I truly can’t begin to thank you for such an amazing night/event. Truly special in every way, such an incredible night for Bill and I personally and honestly it was just magical!!! You and your team made it all seamless -from the phenomenal setting, how you arranged the oyster tables, food presentation, food, the INCREDIBLE oysters(rave rave reviews), the service – it could have not been more perfect. Bill and I felt like were in a movie, watching it all unfold but able to be a part of it, at the same time. From the moment I first spoke to you- a year out, throughout the months, to the food tasting, to recommendations on adding special touches, to the night of – all the best. I feel so fortunate and I made a friend in the process What could be better. Bill and I felt such warmth from you and your family. We truly couldn’t not have imaged a better place to host this most special event. Molly and Harrison just couldn’t have been happier or more thrilled, with how it all came together. An evening they will forever cherish. I can’t wait for you to see the photos/ you can just feel the happy energy and love.
