    Great oysters, I'm from New England and live in an area where food oysters are plentiful. They had a superb selection at a price comparable to home. The cocktails were simple and refined, and the the wine selection was wonderful. The steak frites were perfection! They got the temp spot on. The staff is friendly and engaging and the ambiance is top notch.
