We went for our lunch for our anniversary. Satat the oyster counter. Everyone, from our server, assistent GM to the chefs, were so warm and friendly. They gifted us with several extra tastings beyond our order including the salmon crudo, the shrimp cocktail and an extra dessert! Plus we got delicious oysters from New Brunswick. Entrées were the branzino and tuna rice bowl. Everything we tasted was delicious! The lunch menu is more limited than dinner but just as good. Highly recommend this place. Thanks for a memorable anniversary lunch.

We arrived 30 minutes early for our 7:00 dinner reservation. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. The restaurant was packed on a Tuesday night. I recommend having a reservation. We had oysters, crab cakes, broccoli, and clam chowder. Everything was excellent The waiter and staff were on point in spite of the bustle and busyness. If you’re looking for a quiet meal, this is not the place. For great food and service, it was top notch.
