Island Oyster

Bar · Governors Island

@infatuation

"Island Oyster has the best mix of atmosphere and food on the island, and it’s the main reason why we make our annual pilgrimage to the land of no cars. This place is from the Grand Banks team, and the long bar on the waterfront makes you feel like you’re at a beach resort, but one with panoramic views of downtown Manhattan. Get a spritz, fresh oysters, and an above-average lobster roll while you weigh the pros and cons of cooling off by way of a dunk in the East River (please don’t actually jump in)." - will hartman, kenny yang
