If you’ve never ordered this local favorite, Marker 32’s rendition is a great introduction. The freshness of the oyster harvest and our expert preparation make for broiled oysters unlike any other.

A Great Introduction to Seafood

What better way to dip your toes into the delicious world of seafood than with cheese, bacon and garlic? You don’t need to learn how to shuck and you certainly don’t have to worry about unfamiliar flavors.

Oysters a great vehicle for all of those yummy toppings you love. Indulge in the buttery goodness of a fresh oyster topped with pecorino, bacon, spinach and sundried tomatoes. All of these delicious ingredients are then placed under the broiler for a few minutes until golden and bubbly.

Pair Perfectly with Many Entree Favorites

Marker 32 has served fresh seafood favorites to the Jacksonville community for many years. Our gourmet chefs work tirelessly to perfect each dish and its presentation. You’re always in for a multi-course treat when you step through the doors of our waterfront restaurant!

After you devour your broiled oysters, the obvious next step is an entree. For a delicious pairing, we recommend one of these dishes:

Sweet Tea Brined Wood Grilled Pork Chop with roasted sweet potato, chargrilled peach bbq,  broccolini

Local Catch Hoppin’ John with black eye peas, basil pesto rice tomato compote

Seared Filet Mignon with mushroom risotto, grilled asparagus, brandy veal jus

Plays Well with a Glass of Wine or a Strong Cocktail

Rich broiled oysters need a full-bodied beverage to bring out the indulgent flavors. Balance your delicious appetizer with a bold Cabernet or red blend. If liquor is more your speed, a classic old fashioned couldn’t be a better choice.

If you opt for raw oysters on the half shell instead, sparkling wine is the answer. Prosecco and Champagne are classic wine pairings for dishes like raw oysters and fried chicken. Yes, we did say fried chicken.
