Ask for Mermaid Select. Not on the menu. You're welcome :)

Overhyped. Just ok if you're craving seafood in the EV but not particularly noteworthy. Oyster connoisseurs: go to Cull & Pistol's happy hour instead for a wider selection at half the price.

The oysters any way you like them they are good

Is it bad that our favorite thing at this seafood spot is the charcuterie plate? Nah.

Great oyster bar. Whiskey cake is earned and well worth it.
Jonathan WegenerJuly 15, 2013
The bartender looks like Naveen. Also there was a long wait for dinner table but no wait for a bar seat so be sure to ask about that.

Can't imagine coming here anytime other than happy hour because of the prices but the food and beer were good, however, the wine was lacking.
