"The deal: $1.75 oysters (sold by the half-dozen) When to get it: Monday-Friday, 5-6pm Despite its Dirty Sixth surroundings, Parkside is where you can dress up a little and sip fancy cocktails while eating oysters and drinking half-priced sparkling wine. If you’re doing Happy Hour, you’ll be there before the area’s maximal party hours begin anyway. This place is more restaurant than bar, so stick around until you’re hungry enough to order their bacon cheeseburger." - matthew jacobs, nicolai mccrary
