Tasting TableMay 4, 2012
Filled with fresh lobster meat, their roll is simple, clean and classic. A delicious contender in our 2012 Lobster Roll Rumble: Read more

Great food! The waiter suggested 2 drinks that were perfect. And the outdoor seating is really nice

Oysters and Raw Bar cannot be beat. Avoid the spare ribs at this seafood restaurant; it isn't their specialty.

truffle grilled cheese & tomato soup lunch combo at the bar is delicious and inexpensive (as compared to a full sit down meal)

$1.05 oysters (.05 cents goes to an oyster non-profit), great view, decent drinks.
Dina SJune 2, 2013
Service is surprisingly slow. Good oyster happy hour. Happy Hour White wine is tasteless, but does the job. Despite the confusing sign, outside area is "self-seating", so grab a table if there is one!
BordeauxWinesJuly 16, 2012
Do you feel like seafood or grilled meat? Anyways, the view on the Bay Bridge is breathtaking!
N NOctober 2, 2014
