If you're a burger/oyster lover, you won't find a better deal in the city. Eats offers an online deal of 2 martinis and 2 dozen oysters at a steal.
The oysters (bluepoints) are great and the steak burger is one of the best I've had, anywhere.
Don't bother wasting your time with stuff like the kale/pear salad (good but not great) or the garlic shrimp (not much garlic and tasted like the oily residue from the toaster oven). Stick with the burger/oysters combo and you'll be glad you did!
Good service, delicious martinis and blue point oysters; a combination that is hard say no to! Some of the other food we saw moving around on the arms of the waiters and waitresses looked good as well! The place was a tad bit pricey, but that's a give in when you're eating in the upper east side. Other than that this restaurant was a great a experience and definitely a place that I would recommend to someone in the area.
A friend and I came here to catch up over a beer. This place had Stella and Leffe on tap so why not?
I had a Leffe and an order of fries. The fries were good if you like skinny, crispy fries. My Leffe was not as cold as I think a beer should be and there was something a little stale tasting about it. (Yes, I have had Leffe on tap at other places.
Not much of a vibe here. We ended up sitting at the bar for convenience but the rest of the seating is very basic as well.
The other thing that could have been improved on is the air conditioning. No idea if it was even turned on or not but it was a warm day where it was actually hotter inside the restaurant than outside.
The whole experience was just ok so I wouldn't really go out of my way to come back here, even though I live 5 minutes away.
Excellent oysters. Good selection. The burger was awesome. The french press coffee is a must! 3,50 a good deal for it and the taste is fantastic. The ambience is not romantic. More pub style. Overall a great upper east experience.
In all honesty, the Time Out NYC burger review put this burger joint on my horizon, so had to check out the hype. The aged beef burger IS awesome, juicy, tasty, and worth trekking uptown for. The bun its placed on however does not do this burger justice, request to substitute a pretzel roll for a suitable dining experience dance partner for the star of the show. We sampled several appetizers, and although the Calamari was very good, the brussel sprouts were my favorite; Delicious, seasoned just right, with a good char taste. We felt service was very goo, the value, not so much, coming from working folks.. For what we dined on it was rather pricey. If I were to return, it would be a burger only event, and be completely satisfied with it.
We found this restaurant on yelp and came to try the food after a very long day exploring the city. This is definitely somewhere I would recommend if you're looking for a nice restaurant where you can sit down and enjoy a meal. We didn't order the oysters but several other patient patrons seem to be enjoying them. I enjoyed a pineapple margarita and my friend had one of their martinis. They were both refreshing after so much walking. I had the veggieburger which is hand made and it comes with sweet potato fries. It was delicious. The bread is a thin wafer. I thought I wouldn't like that but the burger's flavors are so amazing that you don't feel like you need extra bread. I added cheese, and it was just the right blend for the thick burger. My friend ordered the pumpkin gnocchi, which is an appetizer, but she said that it was enough to fill her up. The service was quick and efficient, and they checked on us several times to refill our water glasses. Try this place out if you're ever on the upper West side and are looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.
I have to say this is probably the best restaurant overall experience I've had since moving to New York 3 months ago. I called to make a reservation and was told that they don't accept reservations for parties of two from 7-9pm which wasn't a problem for me since we would be doing a late dinner.
The restaurant itself is mid sized compared to others I've seen. They have a nice bar and nice seating arrangement (you won't be on top of someone else). We had a groupon for 2 dozen oysters and 2 martinis. The oysters were cleaned to perfection! You could tell they were fresh and were a great size. They came with all your traditional fixings.
We were also given bread which was ok. The martinis were great! They have an array for you to choose from. We also ordered the burger that won them best burger can't remember the name but it was delicious and perfectly cooked. This came with fries which were also cooked perfectly.
The staff was friendly and helpful from beginning to end. We arrived at 9:45pm on a Saturday night and it was pretty empty. We were the last ones there at the end of our meal but no one rushed us. I would definitely recommend this place for oysters and drinks try their burgers too you'll enjoy it.
Saw a Groupon deal for oysters and drinks so decided to give it a shot….
It's a cute restaurant w a lounge feel to it… Loved the ambience, service and music playing was a plus to my ears….
So apart from the oysters and drinks….
We decided to also place an order for a couple of appetizers…
I chose the Spain shrimps, which consisted of shrimp cooked in garlic , paprika and red chilli flakes… It was delicious…
I don't know why but hubby wanted to try the mac n cheese…
Not a good choice … It tasted like Velveeta mac and cheese … It was too creamy and cheesy YUCK…
I know I know mac and cheese should have plenty of cheese but it was way too much and felt my arteries slowly shutting down it was also salty….
No thanks…
Anyway ,the oysters were fresh and meaty I will seriously keep purchasing the Groupon deal until they no longer sell them to me …
I mean $40 for 2 dozen oysters and 2 alcoholic beverages in NY…. when will we see a deal like that again???
