Enter the huge bar area, where crowds gather to enjoy fresh oysters on ice, appetizers and drinks. Try a martini made with fruit-infused vodka or a spicy Bloody Mary with shrimp hanging over the rim of the glass. Fish art and paraphernalia hang on exposed brick walls and dangle from the ceiling. The decibel level can be high but a spot on the small sidewalk patio dims the noise inside. Sample oysters from around the world or tasty blue-crab cakes to whet your appetite. Selections change with the freshest catch. Try Cajun-style grilled catfish, fennel-crusted halibut or an exotic Hawaiian fish with pineapple salsa. The staff will happily help you through the unfamiliar items. Dessert is a must, whether it is rich Oreo pie or a refreshing scoop of sorbet.
