Four stars for the price because the special for a dozen oysters plus a glass of wine is really really good. The service was fine too and the oysters were well shucked. That said the place is tiny, even by Parisian standards (it was even tighter than the one time our table was literally part of the radiator at the Pigalle 17:45). It is so tight that every time another table had someone need to get up the whole back wall of the place had to get up to let them out. Also kind of a bummer that the selection is worse than Comptoir de Mer, Avant Comptoir de Mer or most of the brasseries in Montparnasse. Honestly although the oysters were good and the prices were great, it wasn't a terribly enjoyable experience and we most likely won't return.

Small place but the food was oysters were a tase of the sea and their vinegar sauce balanced the saltiness.

Really good and good sized oysters. I'm no expert but felt that the brine overtook the taste of the oysters so I tried not to take too much liquid with them. The wine recommendations and foie gras were both excellent.

It's not often that I take advice from a YouTube channel called "Les Frenchies," featuring a woman who sports striped sailor sweaters and a sensible haircut, but in this case I did, and I think I've been very wrong about the Frenchies thus far. Because in this case, THEY KNEW THEIR STUFF. I loathe oysters with the heat of 10,000 suns, so I had the paté. It was just fine - tasty, and served with plenty of little toast points. But the paté isn't the point of this place. The point is the oysters, and they are divine. My husband had a dozen of their second-least-expensive oysters and he pronounced them amazing - splendid - SUPERB. They are beyond fresh, served on a proper platter with a tall base, and come with a wonderful bottle of vinegar that's aged in cognac casks. He was warned to use only a drop or two, or it will "kill the taste of the oysters." I don't know about that, but I do know that I tried a drop, and I have never tasted anything like it. It was OMG so good. The oysters come with bread - a basket of sturdy slices of what I think was sourdough rye. He had a glass of Bourgogne Aligoté (white), which was eye-wateringly expensive but very, very good. I had a glass of pinot noir, also of very high quality. The restaurant is very small - maybe 10 tables, including the 3 outside - and looks clean and fresh and chic. We sat outside in the warm sun and fresh breeze and had a delightful dining experience. Wait staff are sweet. No one rushes you. It isn't a touristy joint AT ALL, which is lovely to experience in Paris. My only warning is that if you are a larger person, perch carefully upon the chairs. I thought mine was going to collapse at one point. But it didn't. :-) And the oysters were superb.

I'm a New Englander and I know raw bar. I know raw bar as well as anyone, and I can tell you beyond a reasonable doubt the raw bar at Huiterie Regis is world class. 10 tables, there's foie gras and other stuff on the menu but you go for their oysters. Huiterie means "oyster house " in French. They don't serve with cocktail sauce, no mignonette, just this Bouteville vinegar that is incredible. It's top is a dropper and a drop is all you need. The service was mediocre, the waiters were just a little stupid tbh, but the oyster and shrimp quality was par excellence. It's a local joint, not touristy whatsoever, and it's very cool. Get a bottle of white wine and the biggest platter you can afford! Bon Appetite!

The best Oysters and Shrimp! We have been wanting to try Huitrerie Regis for our last couple of trips to Paris, but there was always a line for this very intimate restaurant. Recently, the owners sold it to a couple of younger gentlemen, and the only thing they changed was that they now take reservations! We ordered the Cabane x 2: 24 oysters (four different kinds and eight large head-on shrimp) -- all outstanding. A couple of glasses of Chinon and we were set. The discovery for us was the vinegar. Spectacular with oysters. So good I went to the Grand Epeceire at the Bon Marche and picked up a couple of bottles. Nice, friendly service, and never rushed -- the French way!

We had heard great things about this place and tried to go one evening but they had already closed... Its small - really small. So best to try and go at off hours - unfortunately the first time around we were too late. But persistence paid off, we came the next night and voila! A table for two! Had gotten some intel on the smoked scallops - a small appetizer but delicious! Several different types of oysters to choose from - so after a run down from our waiter - we chose. They were delicious! Briny and plump as well as sweet. Very delicious! We also ordered a half dozen prawns. Really hard to find head on prawns here in the US - at least in the northeast... they were fabulous! Excellent wines as well. Expensive but definitely the best oysters we had in Paris.

I read about Huitrerie Regis on a list of best oyster places in Paris, and it was extremely close to our hotel. So we gave it a shot. It is not an assuming place - in fact we wandered around the same intersection for a good 10 minutes before we figured out we were almost right on top of it. It's a small restaurant so go during off times to try to ensure you don't have to wait. As it was, we were seated immediately by the couple of young men working in the restaurant. It wasn't fancy but it sure was delicious. -I got the foie gras because I cannot help myself in France. It was delicious as always. -We got oysters and added on half a dozen jumbo prawns. The oysters were a variety ... they had four in stock when we went so we just got three of each and had a merry good time. They were all absolutely delicious and shucked well. Some of the best oysters we've had in a long time. The shrimp were good but honestly the oysters were the rock star. We only were there for a small meal before heading over to the Eiffel Tower so that's all we had. But we did tremendously enjoy it. They had a small but good wine selection too, and the staff was extremely kind and knowledgeable. I wish we had enough time to return for another meal. But if you like to crush some oysters and you're over in St. Germain, check this little spot out!

You just arrived in Paris after a delayed flight. It's too late for lunch, and really too early for a proper dinner. It's time for some of the best oysters available anywhere in the World. Period. The only difference between being here and the shores of Brittany is a handful of hours. Outside of a nice little Duck foie gras and grilled bread to start (what better way to start eating in Paris can there be). We ordered dozens of the oysters they had available. Even when eating oysters on the coast where they are caught in the US, I've never had ones like this. Some of it is the freshness, and some is being shucked by a guy who has shucked so many thousands it's second nature. There was so much crisp brine still in the shells, I ended up dumping some of the water to balance out the salt and oysters. They were just magnificent. They had a perfect wine list. We went with a nice Muscadet because you just never see that wine around enough. It worked perfectly. This is a tiny place with no more than 5-6 tables packed into a small space. Still, it didn't feel crowded. The only disappointment was that Urchin wasn't available.
