| - As someone who doesn't like to wait in a long line for food, I have to admit, I'm willing to wait the hour or two for this place. The wait depends on when you come here. If you think coming late at night will help you avoid the crowd, think again! Odd hours like early morning or mid afternoon are actually your best bet. There is a higher chance of a huge crowd around late night or after clubbing.
Service here is fantastic. Everyone is chatty and friendly. It's definitely a cozy bar with about 18 seats. It's probably best to come here in groups of 2-4 and not a huge group. The seating arrangements will make it extremely difficult to have your party seated together and at the same time. But everyone is friendly and will try to make room for your large group so you can try your luck.
As for the food:
Oysters by the dozen - One of the best oysters I've ever had. It's a pretty platter of 12 oysters with cocktail sauce, horseradish, and slices of lemon. Most of the time, very fresh. They chuck them on the spot. There was one time that it was not very fresh when I came around winter time. Other than that one occasion, most of the time, it's absolutely delicious.
Pan Roast Comb- Hands down my absolute favorite! Highly recommended. It's a great combination of cream, tomato, butter, and brandy with generous amount of shrimp, crab, and lobster. Also comes with a scoop of rice. It's delicious and creamy, with a nice kick of spice. It's been the favorite amongst those I take to eat here.
Bouillabaisse - Broth with generous amount of shrimp, crab leg, lobster, mussels and clams. It's pretty good, but not as good as the pan roast in my opinion.
House Gumbo- I personally don't recommend it. It's a combination of shrimp, crab, and lobster, with Andouille sausage and okra. I ordered this last night and probably won't order this again. It's not that good in my opinion and I would much rather order the pan roast.
New England Clam Chowder - Pretty good. A decent sized bowl with large amount of clam meat. It's nice and creamy, although it can be a bit heavy.
*I think your experience also depends on who is the chef. I wish I remembered who made my pan roast during the summer of last year. It's still the best one. The chef was amazing with his fast efficiency and execution. I was amazed watching him at work. My food came so fast and was sooo good. Then I went a few months ago and it was a different chef. I seriously question if he was hung over. He spilled oil off the sides to so many times and missed spices for so many of the pans. I was frustrated just watching him.
