Mondays through Wednesdays call for a touch of coastal indulgence. Join us in the Lounge for "Nights On Ice," featuring a refined selection of pristine, fresh-shucked $2 oysters served beautifully on shaved ice. To conclude the evening on a sweet note, enjoy our signature Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream “Bonbons,” presented dramatically with dry ice.

Are you a purist who prefers oysters with just a squeeze of lemon, or do you opt for a classic mignonette?
