Tuesday night $1 oysters are a thing to die for! My friend has been raving about this place for some time so I made a reservation for Tuesday dinner for my mom's birthday.
We arrived half an hour early but were seated promptly. The 2 hour seating limit didn't start until the actual time of our reservation so I thought that was very nice.
I ordered a Sapporo and there's nothing quite like having it on tap. We ordered 45 oysters throughout the night, japa-burgers, the lobster roll, unagi risotto, and the takoyaki. Despite our frequent orders, the service was very quick and attentive.
The oysters come with a number of different toppings you can add to it. This roulette of toppings really sets it apart from some of the other oyster joints in the area. The taste and size if the oysters were average to above average, but for $1 I was more than happy.
The japa-burgers are something to rave about. They come in triplets and are delicious. My brother's description of them were "Big Mac's super elite older brother" but I don't think that does it justice.
The lobster roll was large and quite good. I couldn't really taste the lobster though tbh.
The unagi risotto comes out warm and in a very small bowl. There is one piece that tastes fantastic, but leaves you craving more. It was not very filling and despite being unique, was the least memorable dish we ordered.
The takoyaki was one of the best that I've eaten. I attribute this to the fact that not one flavour overpowered another and blended well for a delicious takoyaki.
All in all, fantastic place! I only rated it 4.5 stars because it is pretty pricy and eating here is a little inconvenient. Despite ordering and spending a lot, I left the restaurant not quite full yet. Regardless, this is a must go!
