Vicky U: Fusilli pasta w octopus and bone marrow is perfect. Perfect. All the pastas, really, are excellent.

Jon B.: Get the polipo (braised octopus). That’s all you need to know. Probably the best octopus I have ever had!
Alexis Dorenter: Oysters were delicious and definitely splurge on the whiskey cake for dessert. The staff is delightful which makes for a great dining experience!
DishEnvy: The beer and oyster selection is great as the name implies, but make sure to sample the house cured salmon. It's quite possibly the city's best!
Ranu Rajkarnikar: Neighborhood gem. Awesome rotating beer selection, happy hour from 5-7 on weekdays and incredible oysters. Some of the biggest I've ever eaten! Go immediately. Love the staff too.
