A contemporary take on the classic oyster bar, located in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, near BAM, Barclay's, the Paramount, and Atlantic Terminal.

Strange Delight finds its influence in New Orleans and is also inspired by the rich history of oysters in New York. Our menu consists of regional seafood prepared in a variety of styles: Charbroiled Oysters and Shrimp Remoulade share the stage with classic seafood towers and Oysters Rockefeller. A rotating selection of larger plates features items such as Black Cod Almondine and Blackened Swordfish Belly.

To drink, Strange Delight updates old classics, serving both a Hurricane and Ramos Gin Fizz service for 2, alongside Martinis and Sazeracs. Our wine and beer lists feature our favorite American producers.

Please note:
We offer 3 distinct types of reservations:
Regular: a table in our back dining room
Bar: seats at our back dining room bar
High-top: a higher table with bar stools in our front room with an open kitchen and oyster counter.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Ham El-Waylly

From the OpenTable editors: Even before The New Yorker raved about Strange Delight, this love letter to the famed oyster houses and cocktails of New Orleans was already making waves. Start with a glass of the creamy Ramos Gin Fizz, move on to a plate of charbroiled oysters with smoked garlic butter, and enjoy it all in a space that'll make you feel like you're at a NOLA oyster bar legend. After just one visit, this will become your go-to before or after a show at BAM.
