Grand Central Oyster Bar

Oyster bar restaurant · Midtown East

"Grand Central Oyster Bar has occupied the subterranean space in Grand Central Station since 1913. The dramatic dining room, with its vaulted, tiled ceilings is one of the main attractions here. The bar is the best seat for sampling over 25 varieties of seafood, from a menu of raw oysters, stews, pan roasts, sandwiches, and more. Note that the restaurant is closed on weekends." - Eater Staff
