    Oysters are the main event here, and waitstaff is knowledgeable in helping select them to your taste. Beware the per pound pricing on Dungeness crab off-season. Price at Annex was $28 vs. $12 at Pike

    I love the look and vibe here and the menu LOOKS fantastic. But I've been three times, and the apps and entrees are consistently disappointing. Highly recommend for beer and clams/oysters but no more.

    Kumamoto Oysters: EPIC; Scallops: Best Ever...and the service was epic. Guy took 5 minutes to tell us how they made our scallops so good when we asked.

    Sautéed baby octopus: balanced, light yet flavorful white wine & shallot sauce, tender octopus. Must order!

    Oysters are seasonal, guys. They're best during months that end with -y, but they're not bad in the off months here

    The trout is by far the best and a great deal. Salmon is also delicious. Oysters are a must

    Super posh new oyster bar, you have to try it! Currently watching them cook soup and steam clams fresh, can't wait!

    Oysters yes. Whole trout a whole-hearted No. Overcooked and a lot of bones left behind. Charred skin ruins the arugula bed. You'll spend your whole time carving through your plate for little reward.

    Obviously get the oysters, but save room for the butternut squash cheesecake!

    Do you have a beard? Do you have carefully unkempt hair? Do you like to say "dood?" This is your place. And their chowder is gluten free and tasty.

    Tasty clam chowder and Caesar salad. The crab cake was good too, but not sure it's $19 good...

    Clam chowder is made to order and served with pork belly. Mind blowing.

    drinks were on the weaker side. staff was very friendly & knowledgable. disappointed that there were shells in my oysters. The $55 lobster roll wasn't good, was over cooked and had very little taste

    Cooked salmon is not for me, but the salmon chowder is otherworldly! Excellent service.

    Never seeing worse service towards finding a table for a young family of 3 with one toddler. They made our life impossible, so we had to leave. Don't waste your time here is you have kids.

    We went for happy hour and a dozen oysters. They were poorly shucked and we picked broken oyster shells from our mouth. YUCK!
