    We finally visited The Shuckery and were warmly greeted by the bubbly host. Arriving 20 minutes early, we were seated promptly. Our cocktails were delightful, and the local bread basket with its olive oil dip was a standout. The fresh oysters and citrusy Caesar salad impressed us, as did the generous ahi poke bowl. While the braised short ribs were flavorful, they lacked the expected tenderness. A request for hot sauce led to a pleasantly fiery surprise, appreciated by both of us. The ambiance was lovely, but service felt slightly inconsistent. Our server tended to neighboring tables more frequently, leaving us waiting to order additional drinks and food. The food runners were more attentive, and we ended up interacting with them more than our actual server. Despite this, they ensured we had what we needed. We concluded our evening with drinks by the hotel lobby fireplace, a perfect end to a rainy night. We’re eager to return and explore more seafood offerings, especially the tinned fish and catch of the day.

    Street Social is the kind of place that you want to rush out and tell everyone you know how awesome it is, but at the same time kind of want to keep to yourself because it’s so small and special and amazing. The food is spectacular - you don’t really recognize anything on the menu but it doesn’t matter because it’s all imaginative, creative, unusual and delicious. Order anything, you can’t go wrong! Friendly service and the tiny space makes it feel like you are eating in someone’s dining room. And then go tell your friends! Or on second thoughts, keep it to yourself. A hidden gem.

    I was pleasantly surprised by what instantly became one of my top-5 favorite local spots for delicious food. The restaurant ambiance including decór and music provide a swift trip to Greece while the food takes you up to a gastronomic cloud nine. My husband and I really enjoyed our lunch. He had the falafel sandwich and I had the exquisite Moussaka, the best I’ve had in a loooong while. We shared a succulent hummus with fluffy pita. The service was friendly and the food came out rather quickly from the kitchen. 5 stars for this spot. Can’t wait to return.
