"Having a satisfying meal is great, but when it includes incredible cuts of hamachi, striped bass, and salmon, it’s even better. Enter Midtown Village’s Pearl & Mary Oyster Bar. Their crudos blend flavors like toasted sesame, shiso, chili, and yuzu kosho to balance out the heat. The fish is always fresh and perfectly sliced, and has an ideal blend of acidity and sweetness. And since they have one of the better Happy Hours in town, you can grab a $7 daily crudo, pair it with a $6 wine, and forget about the day of passive-aggressive emails for less than fifteen bucks.
