My experience at 42nd Street Oyster Bar was delightful! 🌊

We celebrated a birthday and indulged in a variety of dishes. The fried oysters were a standout, perfectly crispy and bursting with flavor! The crab and artichoke dip was creamy and a great shareable.

While our waitress could have checked on us more often, the vintage atmosphere kept our spirits high. Notably, the apple pie with rum sauce for dessert was a sweet ending to a heartwarming evening.

Don't forget to make reservations - it gets busy! 🍽️✨
