| - A Starfish, at least the ones we're familiar with have one, two, three, four, Five. Five arms and I'm taking Two of them away and then some. This style of place reminds me of a Boston Seafood establishment(Neptune Oyster) near Faneuil Hall region that I regret I never actually got to attend.
The Oyster selection while quite attractive in variety and pricing not too highly margin'd in this Downtown area, it came as the last offering from multiple dishes while we were expecting it as a Starter/Appetizer. Each and every Raw Oyster had some shell pieces underneath the bivalve that I had to carefully extract. Definitely not meant for Oyster Eating Competition by any stretch.
I was hoping at the cost and Clientele they serve here that there would be more of a welcoming casual friendly services but it's hit-and-miss from individual to individual as we had more of a nonchalant waitress this round. The atmosphere is a nice mix of warmth, seaside, casual while still have that fine-dining. The unusual aspect was the Jazz/Soul music playing from the speakers. Did I just open a Space-Bridge to Nawlins?
White stripe Bass($28.00)
White Fish($28.00)
PEI Mussels w/Frites($19.00)
Ribeye Steak w/Demi Glace($35.00)
The protein Meat part of the Meal is quite nicely accomplished, stars of the show. Both Fishes with crisp skin and well cooked within, much appreciated good job. The Steak looked tantilizing and smelled aromatic amazing, I wished I ordered that. The PEI Mussels were standard usual fare, nothing I would run back for.
The Carbs/Veg along were so-so but the fact is I came for Seafood and those sides are secondary in nature. I still wished they stood out more rather than being put-aside eat-if-you're-hungry elements. Considering the monies paid for this Meal, I personally consider this worth coming back for... Eventually.
