I stopped into Buck & Rider because I heard about this life changing stone crab they have and lucky for me it was during their 50% off special. So destiny calls! Valet parking, very fancy, and the restaurant is gorgeous. Perfect atmosphere for a casual date night or family dinner.
The cocktails were delicious and you can't go wrong with happy hour! I am not an oyster person (unless it's done Rockefeller) but the ones we tried were sweet & mild with a squeeze of lemon and some horseradish, amazing. Takes your palate right to the ocean. It definitely changed my whole perspective on raw oysters.
About that stone crab though... It wasn't what I was expecting. The shell was so hard it was almost impossible to get the meat out. It almost tasted like it was still a little frozen so the texture was stringy. I couldn't get a good chunk of meat because it was all shredding to pieces. I don't know if that's how it's suppose to be or not but that's just how it tasted for me. Other than that everything was amazing, enjoyable and fresh! I'll definitely be back to try more.
