One of our favorite restaurants used to be here so I'll admit we were reluctant to try. When it first opened it looked like they had some kinks to work out based off the reviews, so we waited to come here.
The first time we ate here was the end of May. Hubs and I figured we would treat ourselves after a busy holiday weekend and a pre-birthday dinner for myself. We loved the new set up when we walked in. Much more open but still had a similar vibe. The music was not too loud and everything looked clean and in proper order. Our waiter James was phenomenal. Very friendly, attentive and was great with our 18 month old.
We ordered a dozen Oyster's from the East coast. I couldn't tell you which ones, that's more of hubs department when it comes to ordering, but I can tell you they were fantastic. Hubs complimented that not once did he get any shell. Perfectly shucked. Calamari, Oyster Rockefeller and the Crab Stuffed Mushrooms from the 3-6 Happy Hour. Nothing smelt or tasted fishy. We also ordered Steak Tartare, Hamachi Crudo, Lobster Mac and Cheese and Truffle Fries. The only thing I would not order again was the Truffle Fries. I personally like thin Truffle Fries. These were more like wedges and could definitely use Truffle oil. They weren't terrible, but I'm on a hunt for the best Truffle Fries and these weren't it. The Key Lime Pie wasn't too sweet or too tart.
Last night was our second visit. Much busier than it was when we went last month. We ordered another dozen oysters, calamari, Steak Tartare, and Hamachi Crudo, Crab Stuffed Mushroom. Our new items consisted of the Lobster Wontons, Lobster Ravioli, Clam Chowder and Lobster Risotto. Unfortunately their Sea Bass had sold out. Definitely will make sure to order it earlier on our next visit. My father-in-law said the Lobster Wontons were probably the best he's ever had. The Lobster Ravioli tasted great, but hubs and I prefer our pasta cooked a little longer rather than al dente. I loved how much came with the Lobster Risotto. Again, I would have liked my rice cooked a little longer, but still really good.
We will definitely be back soon!
