Waiter was fabulous!
Worst Manhattan I've ever had.
Beer selection was absolute trash.
Settled on a mediocre malbec.
Steak was ordered med rare, came out quite rare, fine for me but my wife does not love it that way. Caesar salad was entirely unremarkable and flavorless. Fries were ok. Oysters were great which is why it's 2 instead of 1 star along with waiter.
Insanely loud kitchen noise.
