    I truly believe you would be hard pressed to eat a better meal than what we had. From the sublime oyster selection to the grilled Spanish octopus over butter beans and chorizo, this dinner was out of this world delicious. The service was fantastic. This was a memorable meal. Thank you Cull & Pistol.

    How did I not go here sooner? And how soon can I go back? For his 22nd birthday, my son wanted lobster. A Google search revealed Cull and Pistol, so I took a leap of faith and made a reservation. What a great decision! From the moment we walked in we were treated like VIPs. Tristan, our waiter, was super professional and so, so nice. And the food was OUTSTANDING! Do not miss the tuna crispy rice, the lobster rolls, and of course the grilled lobster (duh). For dessert there were only two, but what a two they were: a unique take on tiramisu - not too sweet but OMG so amazing - and a banana pudding I will dream about every night until I can get back there. Run, don’t walk, to Cull and Pistol! Thank you for a very special night, Tristan, and I love your necklace!
