Airy, chic spot for oysters & elevated seafood small plates
"This seafood-focused spot in Germantown features things you’d expect to find in a dining room that looks like a house in the Hamptons. Crab cakes packed with so much meat you’ll wonder how they’re even holding together, impressively thick quiche made with whatever’s fresh from the farmers market, and a happy hour from 1-2pm with $2 oysters. Snag a giant plate-sized pancake to cut into pie-sized slices for your group and throw in some beet toast, too. The cashew cheese on it is so creamy, it tastes like the lovechild of aioli and whipped goat cheese, and the beet jam adds a sweet and sour element that makes the dish.

"A Nashville restaurant whose chef serves oysters from all three U.S. coasts and advocates for Southern growers through nonprofit work, arguing that Gulf oysters — often dismissed as pedestrian — are high-quality and deserving of more attention." - Amy McCarthy
"THE DEAL: $2 oysters, $7 glasses of cava, rose, and rotating draft, $10 cocktails Henrietta Red has one of the best raw bars in town, so naturally, their Happy Hour includes a rotating selection of oysters and a list of classic cocktails, wine, and bubbles. Post up at their big and comfortable communal bar space where you can chat up the friendly bartenders, or maybe settle into a cozy corner and do some people-watching. Either way, a glass of cava and a half-dozen oysters make for an ideal stop after work or a great option for that first date. Plan ahead and make a reservation if you think you might want to stay for dinner. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve.

"A standout seafood spot in the city, Henrietta Red is essential for anyone enamored with the raw bar: 2018 F&W Best New Chef Julia Sullivan balances a deep oyster bench with Mediterranean-inspired fare and thoughtfully paired wines, and the restaurant’s daily happy hour is worth setting an alarm for." - Jon Gugala
