This was an amazing experience from beginning to end. I wanted a nice, quiet and private 30th birthday and I received just that. Sat at the bar, very attentive service from the bartender. The pickles are 🔥, burger was amazing, oysters fresh with the best sauce to top them with. Cocktail was great, and I don’t drink and never know what to order so whatever he made me was definitely delicious. Overall exceptional for my birthday.
