Black Pearl

Good food, good drinks, good service. Carpaccio and ceviche were really good. Visited on a Thursday evening at 6pm so it was not busy at all. Maybe I beat the rush. I will definitely be visiting again.

My favorite restaurant in Tyler! It’s a charming place with exquisite and unique plates! My favorite is ordering a dozen oysters, which are not gulf. They have a great selection of rotating oysters from different locations. I also order the Crab Louis Salad and Lobster Bisque. Both full with flavor and do not skimp on the amount! I will always come here! Beautiful dishes! I have never been disappointed. Their craft cocktails also pair well with all of the food.

LOVE the Black Pearl. Food and service was great. Cocktails were spot on, we had the Black Pearl Margarita and a Moscow Mule. Followed that with lobster bisque which is rich and creamy and boiled shrimp. I had the crab crostini which is light and full of flavor. My hubby had the crab Louie salad which is enough for 2 people to share. Overall a solid 5 stars and must visit.

We didn't eat here but came next door to ricks on the square since they were owned by some person. Great place though for upscale cocktails, oysters or tapas. Lady who waited on us was really nice. Would definitely recommend for dates or business meetings.

I hesitate to write a great review only because it will become more crowded…..but at the same time, I hate to NOT share such a gem in Tyler. This restaurant never disappoints. The staff are wonderful/on point/creative/attentive and just PERFECT! The drinks are the best in Tyler (old fashion) and the food is unlike anything else you will find here. The oysters are so fresh, the tuna tartare is delicious and their beef carpaccio and lobster bisque can’t be beat…..we just LOVE everything about this restaurant/bar. If you haven’t been, do yourself a favor and go…..❤️❤️❤️

We had a wonderful experience on a weeknight pre-show cocktails & light fare. First class bartender, Tyler took great care of us. Lobster bisque was OMG good! Wow! We will return!

Beautiful and magical but fairly long waiting period even though there’s was maybe 10 people in the restaurant including our family of four. Fairly expensive but the ambience and quality of the food was worth it. Will return.
