Fodor's Review:

The regulars belly up to the big wooden bar and slurp down oysters by the dozen. Owner Ilene Polansky imports them from all over the world—the oysters that is, not the regulars—so you can compare the subtle differences between, say, a delicate little bivalve from Prince Edward Island's Malpeque Bay and a big meaty one from Australia's Gold Coast. A free lesson in shucking techniques comes with the order. If oysters aren't your thing, don't despair: Polansky also serves poached salmon with mango butter, a bountiful seafood pot-au-feu (a slow-cooked stew), and the inevitable moules et frites (mussels and french fries).
