Best Oysters in RVA – A Must-Visit Happy Hour
I’ve visited for happy hour a few times now, and this place never misses. The food is fantastic across the board, but the oysters are the real stars—easily the best I’ve had in Richmond, whether you get them raw or baked.

While it’s a seafood spot, the real “dark horse” is the pasta bolognese; it’s hearty, flavorful, and an incredible value. The fish sandwich, tacos, and burgers are also top-tier. The decor is great, and the staff is incredibly accommodating. Note: They do include an automatic 18% gratuity, but for service this good, that’s a well-deserved minimum anyway. Give them a try; you won’t be disappointed!

Our waitress was fantastic. The atmosphere and cleanliness was great. Everything else was subpar. The fish tacos were great, fries were completely hard, burger was plain and very dry, cheesecake was tiny and way overpriced.

I guess there are no refills on fountain drinks – as I was charged $4 for a refill of Diet Coke that was almost all ice and not even in a full sized glass.

Overall – very meh and definitely won’t be going back.

We had our Christmas lunch here. It was my first visit and I’ll definitely return. I had fried oysters appetizers, a crab cake lunch and the mango dessert. The food was amazing! My favorite cocktail was the citrus basil smash.

For the price point, terrible food. Burger was $18, with absolutely no condiments other than mayo and drier than anyone could imagine. Had to add ketchup just to taste something. Even a little mustard would have gone a long way.

The tables are so incredibly close together.
Service was fine along with the ambience but the food was such poor quality. Definitely will not be returning or recommending. This was our first and last time, wish we had listened to the other reviews.

Y’all better get your act together before y’all become crafted.

Best of luck

The food was underwhelming overall. The cheesecake tasted like it had just been taken out of the freezer, the burgers were very plain, and the soup lacked flavor. Given the high prices, the dishes felt more like reheated grocery-store items than thoughtfully prepared meals.

For a bill exceeding $100 for two people, a bit more care and effort in the food would have been expected.

The service was fine, and the restaurant itself is beautiful inside—but I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re going primarily for the food.

We hadn’t been here since they moved to this location, and really enjoyed our meal. The menu is very appealing – so many items we wanted to order! Highlights from our table were the red pepper and goat cheese, fried oysters, and seared tuna appetizers. My wife loved her rockfish entree and the veal ragu special I ordered was excellent. Atmosphere was nice too – upscale but casual.

A few minor nits – they did auto gratuity for our table of 4 and didn’t mention it. Also, the table cleaner they use smells like disinfectant – sort of an unpleasant dive bar smell once in a while that detracts a bit from an otherwise really nice dining experience.

Our first visit and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! Everyone we interacted with was super nice and welcoming, from the minute we walked through the door on what is their last night of Richmond Restaurant Week Fall 2025. The food was well prepared and quite tasty. Their RRW menu is spot on and had a variety of options. We ordered a variety of entrees and shared them so we had a FEAST! And the dessert options were out of this world. We will definitely return for another taste of their coastal kitchen menu!

Went for “Low-Tide” Happy hour at 5:45-6:30, but stayed til 7:30pm at bar top table. 3 of us. Service from Sydney was fantastic. Food was hot, high quality, and fairly quick. Service was attentive, unpretentious and warm. Modern vibes, clean restrooms, and food and service was a notch above most places in RVA. Nicely done. Will be back again.

Had a really positive experience here! Came for the 3-course prix-fixe and everything we ordered was delicious (tuna ceviche, fried oysters, pasta bolognese, crab cakes, dark chocolate ganache, key lime pie). Service was very quick and friendly. Ambience is very nice!

Dont be fooled by the open table reviews-they are for the Carytown location. This ain’t it.
We arrived at 6:15 on a Friday, only one other guest-that should have been a clue. The waitress was outstanding, she was pleasant and attentive. Good thing since there is an automatic 18% tip. I sure hope the staff get the tip.
The red pepper soup and the baguette are delicious.
That’s the end of the good part.
Be aware happy hour discounts are only in the bar area…silly right?
The food was ok but the whole experience deteriorated into a ruined evening when some frazzled woman plopped down at our table and said I wanted to speak her.
Um noooo
She got annoyed with me for not wanting to speak to her…??? But I get ahead of myself.

The music is much too loud, the few other guests who arrived shouted to be heard, it’s crazy.
The crab cake dinner for $36.00 is ok, I guess you can’t expect good seafood at a strip mall restaurant. The potato wedges were tasty, all four of them, however kale should remain a garnish, not a side dish and loading it with salt doesn’t help matters, nothing makes kale easy to eat. Try spinach or a real vegetable as a side Eileen.
We ordered dessert, dad ordered cheesecake with cherries for $14 There were two. Cherries that is, 2 cherries. This ain’t Juniors cheesecake for sure, theirs is cheaper too. I ordered the seasonal dessert, passion fruit tart. What I received was an orange dream whip pie that was over cooked turning the ingredients bitter and unpalatable.
So back to the fizzy haired lady plunking down at our table…
When I confirmed with the lovely waitress that I had indeed ordered a tart and this pumpkin pie wanna be was the result, she told the “Chef” (apologies to my culinary friends that Eileen titles herself as such) who turns out to be the owner. The same person who serves meals with her fingers stuck in the bowl. Good thing it’s only half a bowl of soup or she would have burned her fingers.
Once I understood that this unhappy person was the owner Eileen, I told her the soup and bread were great but that I had not been served a tart but a pie. She shrugged her shoulders and said “oh well we’re not for everyone. She walked away , returned and Slapped the check into the table(I’m not exaggerating) I was chatting with the diner next to me, Eileen leaned in and offered to move the guest away from to me!! He declined, when she walked away he laughed at her audacity and we continued chatting.

In summary if you want a delicious $8 baguette this is the place to go. If you want crab cakes, Krogers had some in the freezer section from Maryland that won’t include hair from a miserable cranky venture capitalist.
I’ve included their most recent health inspection that is listed on yelp from May in the photos Beware!
