    Our service was incredible. The food amazing. The drinks delicious. I'm from out of town and this was the perfect romantic date night and really left a lasting impression. I've had a lot of subpar experiences this trip and Ten was the best experience I've had in this city BY FAR and in the past few months. Cannot recommend Ten enough. Want a night to remember? Go to Ten.

    It's been a long time snce my last visit to Public Fish & Oyster but they have the same excellent service and food as always. The service was top notch, and the quality of the food was very good. I must commend the management on the outstanding selection and volume of the music. So many restaurants get that one detail wrong and the noise level will destroy an otherwise enjoyable experience. I want to be able to carry on a conversation with my companions and a little background music of classic rock, Jazz or Blues is great as long as it isn't too loud. Public Fish & Oyster got it right! The staff was clearly on their game, everything flowed like it should and the meal was perfect!
