Cool spot with a community meeting room/spy rendezvous atmosphere. I had a fifthed piece of corn with butter and other stuff on it that was really good. Partner had oysters. She said they were good. She also had a margarita and said that was good too.

Food was so great, my friends and I had the best time and the service was 10/10. Shoutout to Brandon for making our experience amazing! We’ll be coming back soon!
Stopped by here for oyster happy hour, turns out the manager Brandon is also a local kid from hawaii! (Kid being generous as we both went mid pac, just a few* years apart 😂😜) nah but for real Brandon brought the aloha spirit and hospitality to nyc. Went here with 2 of my Hawaii friends and we felt transported back to home, even met another aunty from Hawaii that ended up knowing my friends mom! Lol. So small world. Thank you Brandon and ama for making us feel at home. If you want to experience the aloha spirit and hospitality in nyc, come here! We even did a celebratory chee hoo LOL 😂 10/10 shakas for ama raw bar!
Absolutely love this place! Their happy hour deals are amazing. Highly recommend the tuna crispy rice and lobster bao buns. The staff is extremely friendly! The manager, Brandon, is so attentive. Overall amazing experience!!

Went for the oyster happy hour! Each person can get 24 oysters at $1.25. Wish it was more but they were good! Great service and atmosphere.
My Honey found the gem 💎 for me. He surprises me with his research and I surprised him with back to back oyster intake🤣🤣🤣 Next new restaurant for my seafood adventures. I must say fabulous food and good services.
Firstly As soon as we entered ,a great welcome by hostess… followed by very enthusiastic and great server named LOUIS. Who helped us on menu and on my seafood adventures.
Happy hour and drinks menu were good. For drink we had SPICY PALAWAN PEAR PRESSURE MATCH PARADAISU
Unfortunately I didn’t get any drink picture 🤪 But trust me over all drinks,foods and service were 10 out of 10… 100% recommended
Being new to seafood and new to oyster craze. We ended up getting 3 rounds of oyster from happy hour. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you AMA for delicious dinner. Going back soon 😘

OMG.
This place is INCREDIBLE. Okay yes, the food is also so, so very good but what really makes this place is the service. Faith, Carmen and Brandon very work hard to take care of you! fave thing on the menu is the mushroom udon, but really you can’t go wrong. Happy hour is also solid, so bring as many friends as you can!!! 😋
Just happen to be in the neighborhood and found a true gem 💎 🙌🏾 👌🏾...from the service, food, and a great lychee martini 🍸I learned that Ama In Japanese, (海女) refers to female free divers who collect seafood, particularly shellfish and seaweed, without using modern diving equipment...which is so dope after returning from my 2nd trip to Japan...maybe it's fate, but please check them out!!!

Our third place This is our favorite bar in the city and we always have a great time there. The drinks are great (the Mezcal Palawan is great in the winter and in the summer). The oysters are delicious, with the best condiments (scallion ponzu, gochujang cocktail and lemongrass mignonnette) — with one of the best raw bar happy hours you can find. The rest of the menu is delicious: a true feast for seafood lovers (from the raw bar to the warm dishes), with great options too if that’s not what you love (don’t sleep on the rich Mushroom Udon). Above all the team is so kind and friendly: they truly embody the meaning of hospitality, and you’ll want to come back just to feel a warm welcome that’s so rare in big cities. This is the place you wished you had discovered sooner.
Faith and Carmen are the best bartenders I’ve have the pleasure of being served from. The owner Brandon is such a sweetheart and makes you fell welcomed. Just great vibes all around. Drinks and food are amazing too btw ;).
