Asked the waitress for a Mocktail, and she told me she would make me something special. It was a cup of ginger ale. Lol! Just say you don't make Mocktails. I asked for broiled oysters with crab meat, and they brought me broiled oysters with shrimp. What if I was allergic. Tell people you don't have it so they can order something else. Make sure you double-check when you place an order at this spot.

Came here on Sunday afternoon a couple of hours before a concert. This is the perfect place to eat prior to a concert. It is right around the corner from the Prudential Center. There was no way for me to make a reservation online so I took my chance. I was there with two other people and we were lucky to get enough to get there when we did. The place started to get packed quickly. We got a table on the top floor (there is a bottom floor).
Our waitress/bartender CiCi was great. She was busy but still attentive. We got Louie Char Grilled Oysters, thai chili wings Catfish nuggets, fries and burger with fries. For drinks, we got blueberry lemon drop martini and margaritas. Both drinks were tad a bit too tart and not strong enough. Our food was delicious. Though I wish the fries were shoestrings fries and it they had a parmesean truffle option.
Great place to listen to music, have some good food and drinks before a concert at the Prudential Center

Slow service, served us frozen oysters, then served us someone else's food (which we ate part of!), then picked it up and served it to the gentleman next to us without a word, then STILL charged us for our drinks!!! Literally the worst service we have received anywhere in multiple states in years! Do NOT go to this establishment!!!

Five stars for the mussels alone. I don't know anywhere else in Newark you can get mussels this good if at all.

The food is subpar! The menu has been minimized and the service is amateur!!

I found out about this spot and decided to check it out. The owner and bartender were very welcoming and friendly. I ordered the oysters and my friend ordered the mussels. Both were excellent and fresh and we were there late in the night. I love oysters so Iām happy I lucked up and found this gem. Would definitely go back. I want to check it out when the DJ is there. There was a nice crowd in there for a Friday night.

A bar that punches above its weight in terms of food and sophistication. Friendly bartenders and great service. Definitely a seafood forward menu, but equally some great land options.
I should have taken a pic bc my food was delicious. I had the Cajun pasta with shrimp, it came with crispy bread, two big pieces! However the happy hour option was not turned on so even though I was there during happy hour I did not get happy hour prices despite it not being an event night. It was supposed to be $3 off margaritas but I ordered my margarita and I saw Cuervo was charged an additional $3 to make a margarita. Iām not blaming the bartender bc Iām sure she was told by management to do that but itās false advertising. I find this to be a disservice to the community youāre serving. If you donāt want abide by a happy hour then donāt offer it. I mean at the end of the day I ordered a house margaritaā¦$18 during happy hour for a house margarita ?

Disappointing experience. We came for cocktails and told the bartender that sweet cocktails is no go. Got neglected, ended up paying full bill for drinks no one liked.

Immediate feedback: not as advertised. We got attracted by fancy cocktails pics, BUT thereās no bartender in place to make this happen.

Was looking for a spot to just relax after a hard week work and I stumble on the place via google. I didnāt regret a minute I was there. Everything was lit.
