We went here because we haven't been out for oysters in ages and the existing reviews (9 or 10) all said this place was the bomb (referencing other oyster places that were also allegedly the bomb). So expectations were high.
The atmosphere was (is) great. The menu was respectably limited yet varied (so they can do all the items well, right?). The actual food--including the oysters--was fine, not amazing (aside from the fish of the day--seabream--which was cooked perfectly and had us picking at the bones). The prices, however, are just too high for this caliber of food. And while our server was polite and seemingly knowledgable, service was just plain slow. There was plenty of front-of-house staff (and it wasn't yet that busy when we went in) but the staff seemed more interested in chatting with each other than providing the kind of service that $135 meal for two should include.
