"Loved it! Everything we had was awesome. I'm not a huge oysters gal but we had the gnocchi, fish tacos, shrimp bruschetta, lobster mac and cheese and the clam chowder. Will definitely be going back!"

"GT Fish and Oyster was especially good. This was our first visit, our anniversary dinner. I requested a nice table, and they gave us a great one right along the window. Our server was great, and his recommendations were excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and look forward to a return visit with friends soon!"

"Really excellent food. BOKA Group does it again; these guys are amazing. Poor Boy Sliders w.kimchee--fabulous idea, amazing flavor. Terrific soft tortilla fish tacos, their take on mussels is unique--the secret is the sauce!"

"I really like this restaurant. The lobster roll is the best I've had anywhere, even in Maine. . .though it's pretty tiny -- not enough for a man-size appetite probably. The mussels were also very good with a yummy tomato sauce to soak up with crusty bread. Had a great table for two by the windows. The salted caramel dessert was too amazing to pass up, even though we didn't need the calories. This is my third time there and I'll definitely be back."

"While we had reservations for a table at 9:15, we weren't actually seated until 9:35. This was a bit annoying but spent since there were two open bar seats can't complain too much. Food was outstanding - best oysters I've had in years."
