Having mistakenly gone to Smash the first time around thinking it was this place, we made it to NDs just in time for their happy hour from 3-6.
We ordered half a dozen of their French kiss oysters , half a dozen of their raspberry pointe oysters, the bone marrow app, ahi tuna app and duck wings.
Ambience: cool & hip on the lounge side, 3 words: modern lumberjack chic, plain Jane on the dining
Oysters: really fresh and tasty, at 50% they were good value and good eating
Duck wings: Omg this tasted like rehydrated jerky. Or something a dog would be given to chew on. Eating this was like trying to gnaw apart driftwood - so dry and overly crispy and definitely overcompensating with too much mayo. Yes we know your trying to hide the butchered duck meat underneath. Really disappointing as the waiter touted this as one of the OGs since this place opened...What ??
Bone marrow: a much needed 180 from the duck wings. Really good! Creative presentation of the beef tartare stuffed in a large piece of bone. The oil that collected in the hollow of the inside of the home was great to dip the bread it and was absolutely succulent.
Ahi tuna: $16 for 6 chunks of tuna in a kind or yogurt based sauce. Interesting sure. But not notable. And also, kind of a rip off. Wait what did this taste like again? See I've already forgotten.
Final note: I would come back for the oysters and bone marrow and to chill in the lounge
