there is valet parking behind the building

Yes, I think it is. They have patio seating which is very nice when the weather is good. The main seating area has a big bar but it's not intrusive

No reservations, but try to go on a night when the weather is nice. Lots more seating on the back balcony than inside. We usually try to snag two seats at the bar, but that doesn't work for larger groups

Yes but only outside

Yes and I agree it is good, not rubbery!

Yes, bowl only 1/2 dozen oysters.

Awesome everything 💓💓💓
