    This is one of our favorite places. The oysters were amazing. We ordered a dozen and had to go ahead and order an extra half dozen. Great champagne options at amazing prices! Mussels, fantastic! The fries were also perfect. Dip them in the broth. Delicious. The atmosphere is also great. Low lighting, great music. It was our Valentine Dinner but we went on Saturday. Perfect date night.

    On the early side on a Thursday at the bar in the back it was pleasantly quiet. It was comfortable sitting at the bar. The bartender was excellent, the food delicious. It's pricey, but I think worth it for a special dinner. The grilled oysters were my favorite. The cocktails are expensive but high quality.
