Claddagh Oyster House

Claddagh Oyster House Review

Urban decor meets rural delicacies at this upscale restaurant, which occupies a handsome brick building downtown. Not surprisingly, given the name and location, seafood is a specialty here—the local oysters, mussels, and lobsters are all memorable. But there are alternatives for meat-loving locavores (think lamb lollipops or grilled PEI striploin served with roasted PEI potatoes). It's a popular spot for tourists and residents alike, and the service is friendly. Upstairs, the Olde Dublin Pub ($) makes Irish eyes smile. It has pub grub, ample ale, and live music on the Guinness Stage seven nights a week from mid-June to mid-September.
