L&W Oyster CoOyster OasisWhat an amazing restaurant. Every piece of decor is playful and cheerfully belongs. The food is phenomenal and my only concern is you will likely overeat because it is just to good. Do not pass up the fluke, grilled oysters of their specials. Can't wait to go back.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was absolutely amazing.The food was absolutely amazing. One of the best restaurant meals I've had in New York.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMDelicious seafood-classic creativeMy husband and I have been twice to L&W and we will return many times more. We initially went for the oysters but discovered all te other wonderful dishes on the menu. The clam chowder and lobster BLT are must haves. Service is always great and servers are helpful with selecting wine, oysters and other bites off the delicious menu.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMi have a crushI wanted to go back to L&W since I left after my first dinner. I went back and I don't think my crush has blinded me to any imperfections - it's a place to go and relax and have some good food. The service is really nice and friendly and helpful - splitting plates and making suggestions. I've told a few friends about the place and expect to go back.4/30/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Find!This was just what the doctor ordered!!!!!

It was quiet then. Ecxellent food although a bit on the expensive side. Beautiful place as well. Will go again for a special occasion and recommend to friends.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMMy second trip to this restaurantMy second trip to this restaurant and the experience was just as good as the first time. Good fresh food with an interesting twist on the usual seafood restaurant, served by a helpful staff and in a good atmosphere (fairly casual and low key but everything is still done well and efficient).4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMThe oysters were excellent.The oysters were excellent. Thought maybe there would have been a bit more of a selection perhaps. Pleasantly surprised though by how good the rest of the menu was. Overall, very pleased with my experience there.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMYou're missing out if you miss L&WJust terrific for lunch! Food was exceptional and the pricing is to be commended. My first time here and it won't be my last.4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMA great little restaurantThis was our second visit and our first experience was so positive we had high hopes. It is hard to find fault with anything. Went with a group of 8 and had the perfect table to allow us to talk and relax while super food and wine kept coming. Staff was helpful but not intrusive and the the food was great from start to finish. Not just seafood so if someone doesn't like fish, no worries. Simple but perfectly matched wine list that is priced well. This is one of those places that can easily go overlooked in Manhattan so just go and you'll find your self sending friend there after you do. A great little place (my wife loves the pop-up clothing store a few doors down that appears to keep popping up).3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMThe service is superb andThe service is superb and I have been here before and the meal last night was good but not as good as it has been in the past. Perhaps because it was busier than usual.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding. Best oystersOutstanding. Best oysters I've had in NY. Try the lobster roll at lunch!3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMA must, have the Lobster Roll! GreA must, have the Lobster Roll!
Great place for lunch or dinner, can't wait to go back!3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMGood food, but need to workGood food, but need to work on cocktail list and get a better selection of Presecco and Champagne.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMI love this restaurant andI love this restaurant and hope to see it flourish. Their market fish/catch of the day always leaves me perfectly satisfied. Jefferson, our waiter is informative, charming and professional. The garnish and presentations are super cute as is the cheerful decor. Plus the rocky road ice cream on the brownie is amazing, and I've never even liked chocolate ice cream! This place is fun and one of my new favorite NYC spots. Oh, and the Dr. Seuss and crossword wallpaper is a creative conversation starter.3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome Birthday CelebrationSo glad we chose L&W to celebrate my friend's birthday! Great service and vibe, and the food was amazing, really fresh. Started with baked clams, ahi tuna ranchers, and a delicious yellowtail appetizer that was on the menu that night. Appetizers are not large so order a few to share. Then we both had the lobster blt, awesome! Shared a really good (and reasonable) bottle of wine, and of course, had to have a decadent chocolate dessert -- for the birthday candle alone!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Cape in ManhattanThe seafood was fresh and tasty lobster BLT, mussels and the apple crisp with a perfcet Carmel sauce. A must when looking for fresh reasonably priced seafood in the city.1/25/2013 12:00:00 AMPlenty to like here. GoodPlenty to like here. Good fresh food from an inventive menu (makes a difference from the usual standard seafood restaurant), really helpful staff and decor is good. Will definitely be coming back.1/24/2013 12:00:00 AMA winner - time and time againI've been here multiple times -- the food is always out of this world (don't miss out on the Lobster BLT and the oysters are some of the best in the city) and the mood, whether it's low key or a very busy night, is always warm, inviting and fun. This is my favorite restaurant in the area..... Go!3/10/2013 12:00:00 AM
