"Now in a larger location, this Michelin-recommended Southtown oyster bar borrows the trimmings from New England coastal design. The menu is less geographically specific, with entrees ranging from a bouillabaisse-like fish stew to Cal-Mex fish tacos. Most diners stick to East Coast oysters paired with a dirty martini or one of the two sparkling wines available by the glass." - Brandon Watson
