Enjoyed ladies night drink and dessert specials last night. I ordered a light fare of appetizers which included blue point oysters on the half shell, grilled octopus, and escargot. It all went well with my favourite pairing for sweet and buttery seafood- Corona beer with a lime. If not a Corona, I recommend a good Reisling.
The oysters we perfectly sweet and offered with dressings of mignionette, horseradish, cocktail sauce, and a wedge of lemon. Sublime! Well shucked and fresh. Escargot and octopus were also very enjoyable and I only wish the octopus was more than one tendril a plate. (Yes, I know it's an appetizer..) I liked it so much.
Specials posted are barside only but was well worth it. I enjoyed my bartender's personable and friendly service and the comfortable seating around their extensive bar, decorated with a tasteful nautical theme.
I highly recommend this place for an intimate dinner. Lights are dimmed low and the ambiance is lovely as table settings were beautifully done for the evening.
Lastly, I recommend the keylime pie to round out your meal. As a part-time Floridian, I give it my seal. I am told that this pie and the pecan pie are both made in house. Just the right amount of tartness. You must give it a try :)
I will make sure to bring Best with me the next time I stop by.
