Oysters were delicious and only a little gritty. They only allow orders of 6 or 12, so keep that in mind for splitting with friends. The sauce served with the broccolini was absolutely fantastic and honestly a surprise favorite, highly recommend for a veggie with...Read More

Great Silverlake institution, a bit on the pricier side as you would expect from it's location but a great menu and awesome happy hour. Outdoor seating is nice and it gets pretty lively most evenings.

Met up with a friend here and was bowled over by the oysters. So fresh and delicious, and we should have ordered a dozen instead of half. Lobster roll was solid, though I could have done without the mayo. (I asked for butter but am...Read More

The food was awesome-fresh oysters, perfectly cooked octopus and wonderfully seasoned crab linguine! They also had a wonderful Rosé Txakolin(Basque sparkling wine). Being Basque myself, it was a great surprise to see that on their wine menu! We thoroughly enjoyed everything.
