Youell's Oyster House

“Everything was perfect. Great atmosphere and food. Loved the experience. My only criticism is that the clam chowder tastes more like potato soup. Delicious just lacking true new England clam flavor. Highly recommend. We will be back. All our seafood was amazing and the carrot cake and peanut butter crunch pie was perfect. Such a great spot.”

“I stopped in Allentown on my way to Philadelphia to stretch my legs and go for a bike ride. After a couple of hours riding around town. I got hungry and stopped at three different restaurants around downtown , but nothing looked very appealing on the tables as I walk by. So I jumped on Google maps to see what other restaurants were en route to my vehicle and saw Youell’s… seafood sounded good so I rode on over. Oh man am I happy I did. I had one of the seafood broils I think is what it was called. The dish came with lobster, shrimp, scallops, crab, vegetables, and potatoes. I did pay a little bit extra to get the 12 ounce lobster over the 4oz. Everything was cooked to perfection. I’ve been fairly disappointed with some of the seafood I’ve had over the last couple of years, especially with it being overcooked and rubbery. Not the case here!!! my meal wasn’t cheap by any means but not ridiculously expensive, it was worth every penny and I will definitely go back anytime I come through.”

“We had an amazing experience at this seafood restaurant! The oysters were incredibly fresh and delicious—honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. We’ve tried oysters at many different places, even by the seaside, and often left disappointed—but this place truly exceeded our expectations. We also ordered a seafood mix with crab, clams, lobster, and shrimp, and everything was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. You could really taste the quality in every bite. On top of the great food, the service made the evening even better. Our server, Jennifer, was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for fresh, high-quality seafood and excellent service. We’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Fabulous spot for a pescatarian like myself! And who doesn’t love a Sunday Happy Hour! From 11-3 at the bar. Pictured is their wedge salad, tuna tartare & seafood fettuccine alfredo. Jenni took great care of us!”

“Great food and great service! Our bartenders Jasmine & Eden were incredible and very friendly! They had great recommendations on food and always were checking in on us. Good vibes at youells! Lobster tail & the crispy chicken gnnochi was DELICIOUS”
