The Best Seafood Towers In NYC
"Baller Shot Caller Tower Height: 12 inches. Price: $80, which comes with 6 oysters, 4 peel-and-eat shrimp, 3 stone crab claws, scallop aguachile, tuna tartare, and housemade mango habanero hot sauce. This West Village restaurant is a party spot—there’s even a disco ball in the bathroom—and to stress the point, the "Baller" towers on their menu (small $80, large $130) are surrounded by exclamation points. Order the smaller one spontaneously for a seafood date in the brightly colored space, along with shots, of course. You'll get freshly shucked oysters, juicy shrimp covered in a finger-staining Old Bay-adjacent seasoning, and raw preparations of tuna and scallops plated in spent caviar tins. Add a glass or two of whatever orange wine they’re pouring that night, and try to not to let those sweet stone crab claws monopolize all your attention.
