At the heart of our menu is a love of the sea. However, like the sea, our dishes are ever-changing and touch the cultures of many coasts. From Hawaiian poke bowls to Cajun-style seafood boils to San Francisco-born oyster shooters, everything is locally and sustainably sourced. It's all the brainchild of award-winning Executive Chef and Owner Nelson German. A Dominican-American born and bred in Manhattan, Nelson has spent over a decade traveling and honing a culinary style that is at once unique and comforting. We've brought his latest vision to life with a fast casual counter service model. To provide a seamless guest experience, we are now cashless and accept all credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Wallet and Venmo. Visit us for lunch or dinner, or step up to our full bar for a drink.
