I forgot how much I love oysters until I came to Rodney's and had some great oysters. I came here on Friday night 9pm, it was pretty loud and packed inside still. The music selection is pretty good, the atmosphere is pretty chill.
Service was good and the server recommended an excellent dark beer (I normally drink light) and excellent selection of oysters.
We started with 2 dozen oysters to share amongst for of us. they were all very fresh. My favorite one was a PEI variety. Of course they are expensive; probably average $3-$4 each.
For main, I shared the scallop pasta, which they split in two plates for us. The rose sauce was too sour, taste more like tomato sauce. Pasta was al dente and a bit bland. Scallops were okay (total 8).
I also had the pan fried oysters. Breaded in panko, I could smell the oil, but its crispy and good with mayo.
I tried one of my friend's mussels cooked in tomato sauce. Meaty and good sauce! And for $14, its a good price for 30+ mussels!
Total bill was $60 per person. Very steep price, but I'd say it's worth a try. I
like the fresh oysters and the environment, and the dark beer was delicious!
