Arrived around 6:30 pm and there were only 2 or 3 other tables -- not a good sign. Started out w/ half a dozen Naked Roy oysters from WA.



These had a much richer flavor than traditional gulf oysters, and had a much frillier shell.

I also had 1/2 dozen raw from Chef Creek, British Columbia.



Another solid oyster, featuring a beautiful deep shell. You can see the difference between the Chef Creek shell and a Gulf Coast oyster shell below




I also tried 3 of their other varieties: chargrilled, NOLA BBQ, and brie/bacon.



All three types were extremely tasty and I really enjoyed them. I recommend all three.

All in all I had 2 dozen oysters, and a Coke, and the total w/ tip was $53. I liked the place, but my only gripe was that the price was a little steep.

Glad it was good. The price was right. WC or Canadian oysters will run $2 each, and chargrilled will be $18 a dozen anywhere.

I think the interior is drab. Not much thought went into it. It's too open and pedestrian.

Other than that, oysters were good.

Thanks for the review. I thought about going tonight, but I don't know if I could fill myself up with raw oysters. Or how I would feel after eating enough chargrilled ones to fill me up. They need to put an oyster pasta dish, or fried oysters, or an oyster casserole on the menu.

Their grilled oysters were too expensive and i didnt think they were very good at all. Didn't try any other types.
