Amazing selection of oysters! We also had the fanciest fish sticks on earth as well as pretty tasty toast with muscles. You can’t beat the location and we were lucky because it was unusually warm for a fall day so we enjoyed sitting outside. The cocktails would be worth a trip on their own too!!

Food is okay, service is okay and I AM NOT AT ALL OKAY WITH TACKING ON 20% SERVICE FEE to my bill as there were only 2 of us in the party. I certainly understand this when it 's a large party. However, service fee, gratuities, or tips are earned (optional) and are not an obligation for the customer to pick up. Very poor way of doing business and pissing off customers enough to post these types of reviews.

Came here for a light early dinner. We had the place to ourselves. Nicole was our server she was awesome. They have a happy hour , kind of limited but you can find something on there. We ordered a half dozen oysters . Happy hour special $1.50 each . Right behind were the roasted oysters and crab toast. I wish the portions were bigger for both . Lol the kimchi butter on those oysters soooo bomb! Crab toast was so good too. Last on the spread we ordered the deviled eggs/fried oysters. Those were great too. Overall we had a great experience. Gonna try the pasta on my return date.

This place is great. Location, decor, food, ambiance all good. Enjoy it when I go. It loses a point because it's v costly for what you get plus it does not open on Sundays..... I get 2 days off each week and it is not open for long leisurely brunch or lunch 50% of those days..... I don't get it. They don't have customers top of mind is my conclusion.
