BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS - Welcome to Boston and one of the restaurants I was most looking forward to eating at was the Union Oyster House - the oldest continually running restaurant in the United States! They are known for their oyster bar and New England style seafood. In this video we’re getting a first hand look at Union Oyster House, the back end kitchen, and the legendary oyster bar!
First of all, I love the old building that actually dates back to way before Union Oyster House opened. There are so many stories that have come out of the amazing building. Union Oyster House opened in 1826, and when you arrive it’s a total step back in time, a living museum that’s a restaurant.
As you enter Union Oyster House, probably my favorite part of the entire restaurant is the oyster bar, which is the original oyster bar. It wasn’t a seating oyster bar, but rather a leaning oyster bar. And it happened to be a favorite of Daniel Webster who would lean at the bar and eat no fewer than 6 dozen oysters. The oysters were phenomenal, so fresh and local, and with a squeeze of lemon and a swipe of horseradish and cocktail sauce. It was some of the best cocktail sauce I’ve ever had.
After taking a full tour of the restaurant we then sat down for a full meal including clam chowder, more oysters, broiled haddock, shrimp with a tomato pesto sauce, and one of my favorite dishes, mussels in white wine, garlic and garlic. The food was fresh and local and prepared in classic New England style. The clam chowder is one of the best I’ve ever had.
Union Oyster House is an iconic restaurant, it has unparalleled history in the United States, and food is quite delicious - especially the oysters and the clam chowder! When you’re in Boston, for both food and history lovers, it’s a must.

I was sitting here trying to decide what my son and I do today. Now I'm thinking to take the 45min drive north and go to Union Oyster House and then walk around the city. 😀
-
Dinner at the oyster bar is better than a history class. Much respect for the owner preserving the history, our society needs more men like him.
-
Mark is a straight character. I hate watching people eat, but he is fun to watch and like many of us truly enjoys GOOD food.
-
My wife and I ate here when I was diagnosed with cancer and flew to Boston for test! Best oysters I’ve had by far and would recommend for anyone that loves seafood! At least we made it there!! Love following Mark and all the places he goes!! Awesome
-
Absolutely loved the calm, courteous demeanour of the chef! A veteran in his profession, yet so patient with his explanations. A restaurant this famous hardly requires any over-the-top publicity, but chef is showing around Mark with so much care and respect. Lots of respect for Chef Rico👨🏼🍳

Man that is some classic cooking. Nothing fancy, just the basics cooked to perfection.
-
I've been catching some of the USA stops and this one by far is the best one, a quality historic landmark, and glad it was brought to my attention.
-
I always love to see Ying and Micah it makes my day that Mark takes them with him
-
With those seating numbers, it’s extremely impressive to maintain quality. I now see it’s due to a TON of prep, my hat is off to the kitchen staff!
-
This dude seriously blows away so much of the food content that's on TV nowadays.
We love your content, Mark! -
One of my favorite restaurants in the US. Loved it there. Best oysters ever. (Grand Central Oyster Bar in NYC has also great Boston oysters but that restaurant beats them all. Hats down.) And the waitresses... lol. So iconic.
-
What a fantastic chef. So much patience and love for the food. So appreciative of you being there Mark. He was such a pleasure to watch....I've seen alot of your videos and I'm not sure if I've seen a chef/owner that showed so much as far as cooking, the restaurant, the history, and the process. Great video!!
-
The efforts they put in preparation is quite amazing, the presentation is so inviting.
To the person reading this: Even though I don’t know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer. -
Mark is so respectful to everyone and all the cultures. Amazing man
-
We love chef Rico of Union Oyster House and we were honored to see him using his Turbo fry pans so skillfully. Thank you, Mark and team, for creating this fun video and for visiting our nation’s legendary eateries. Looking forward to the rest of the series! 🙌

Aaah, my mouth is watering for a taste of those succulent seafood dishes!

Mark has the best attitude towards everything. He’s always smiling, very polite, and seems to be just so happy. Why can’t I be this happy? I’d love to always be smiling like he is. He seems to be enjoying life.

With close to 8 million YT subscribers, Mark has achieved great things and can continue to do so. A rare influencer that sticks to his roots since day 1.

Another great historical Restaurant/Tavern/Inn that really captures the Central New England qualities is The Bull Run in Shirley, Ma. During the early 1800's this was the first stop on the Boston to Albany Stage Coach.

This just went on my bucket list. Amazing restaurant.
