Fresh oysters on crushed ice with mignonette in tiny glass bowls, glistening under warm kitchen light

The Raw Bar

Crushed ice.
Mignonette from scratch.

Every oyster arrives live, stored in sea water until the moment it's cracked open at the bar. We carry four rotating East Coast and West Coast varieties — chosen each morning based on what the boats brought in.

We drove forty minutes for this. Sat at the bar, watched the chefs crack live lobster, drank a bottle of Chablis. The whole branzino was the best fish I've had in a decade. We're already booked for next month.

I've fished these waters my whole life. Shuck is one of the only restaurants in the state that actually treats the fish with respect. The halibut cheeks were transcendent.

The Wednesday oyster board is a ritual now. Eight varieties, the champagne mignonette, Muscadet by the glass. My whole group rearranges our week to make it.
