Pearl Oyster Bar

Editorial Review

Come out of your shell in this renowned raw bar with a small-town Norman Rockwell feel. Something for everyone: Oysters, scallops, mussels are all delicious. Hugely popular, prepare yourself for an infamous and ridiculous wait, only to get packed in like a sardine for crab cake and chowder-with-bacon. They've got a pimp's ego when it comes to their lobster roll, but yes, it lives up to the bluster. You'll thank us.
