    Wow, this is a find! It's very small with no reservations so arrive early. Open Wed-Sat. Service is great and they really take pride in their food. The oysters are amazing! Fresh and tasty. We got a platter of a dozen oysters for $26 and were treated to 3 different kinds: one from Massachusetts and 2 kinds from Maine. I loved one of the Maine kinds and the other Maine oysters were a favorite as well. Affordable and some of the best oysters I've ever had. Tuna sashimi and spicy tuna salad are both well worth it - fresh and amazing flavor. We loved the watercress salad that came with most of our dishes - I'm not sure I even knew I liked watercress before this. The shrimp cocktail was good but small and again fresh. Fingerlings potatoes were great but small and could do with less stuff on it - cheese and bacon are plenty. Chicken tacos had super fresh cilantro and lime. Seafood roll - my other half liked it better than I did as I felt that the squid rings seem to overpower the dish for me - the brioche roll was lightly toasted and buttered to perfection. The presentation of all the dishes is appealing and professional. The menu is hard to describe - super fresh ingredients resulting in a slightly ever evolving menu, almost a dozen different "drinking snacks" including a number of dips - raw oysters, raw clams, raw tuna and a few tacos and sandwiches - bigger portions than a tapas plate but not a full sized dinner plate. Parking can be a bit confusing as it's on the other side of the Hen of the Woods (we used that parking lot - just make sure you pay because they will ticket) and the place is hard to find as it seems surrounded by the Tropic Brewing. Overall, we can't wait to go back for more - top picks are oysters and tuna dishes.

    Went here on my birthday during vacation to have a few drinks that were absolutely lovely! We got a cheesy potato dish (forgive me, I cannot remember the name) that was incredible. The bartender was great and they brought out an amazing dessert after my boyfriend let it slip that it was my birthday. Will definitely come back if we're in the area again!!

    I've been wanting to check this place out since it opened and was glad my neighbor friends wanted to go in tonight. Tucked away behind the main set of well known restaurants, It's a cozy place with just enough tables to keep the kitchen staff and bartender hopping. It's clear they work well together; it's a tiny cooking area and that was well orchestrated. The food we saw coming out looked amazing. I love raw oysters, and as we'd just had dinner before we came in, it'll definitely be a must have next visit. I heard him say that the dozen were 4 different varieties delivered fresh from Rhode Island, Maine and two other locations I didn't catch. The deviled eggs were generously stuffed as were the sandwiches I saw being served. My companions have been here twice before and loved the food. There's something for everyone in a range of prices. That's pretty awesome. The cocktails were delicious. I had the Respect your elders, which was made with gin, St Germaine, lavender. Very tasty, though I would've preferred a little more of the elderflower liqueur vs gin. My neighbor got the browned butter bourbon old fashioned which was to die for. The owners are hustling as hard as the other staff and even though busy, were offering genuine smiles and wished us a good night on our way out. It's a nice, newish unpretentious yet high quality neighborhood dining establishment in Waterbury. I look forward to my next visit.

    We loved this place the owners and staff were great and funny and food was amazing. Looking forward to our next trip fell in love love with this place.

    If I lived here, I'd be here every week... multiple times a week. Had the deviled eggs, oysters, crab dip. It was all amazing. Staff/owners were great.

Despite the packed house, servers were friendly and reasonably attentive, and while the food came out slow, that's to be expected. I wouldn't say it was unreasonable at all considering the volume, AND they were churning out a ton of to-go orders. No televisions in here, which I loved, and a great vibe. Tons of people just having a great time. Great non-alcoholic drink menu. About to celebrate three years of sobriety, and I truly appreciate that. The food was good-great, depending. My wife got a salad with pulled pork and I got the brisket. Both were just "fine" and the meats desperately needed sauce. The brisket was pretty dry, which was disappointing. We also split a side of the smoked mushrooms, which we thought were good, and the pasta salad, which was unfortunately quite bland and not very noteworthy at all despite using pasta from the acclaimed Gallus. Now here's the sleeper: the dry rub wings were incredible. Some of the best I've ever had! Don't miss out on these just because they're on the appetizer menú. If I came back I'd just get a double order of these bad boys. Sweet and smoky and cooked to perfection. Absolute 10/10.

The Caesar, although over dressed, had lovely flavor and I liked the whites anchovies they chop in the dressing. Ambiance was what we expected. And now for the cons: we ordered the special of the night... the waitress said she loved these potato filled pasta, so we ordered. Along with the clams and pasta the mushroom horn pasta. The special, was 22 maybe $23. There were literally eight pasta purses on the plate. They were undercooked and while I enjoy flavor, the pasta was too undercooked and nothing hot, the clam dinner that my husband got was warmIsh. Although he ate it, it was quite heavy on the butter in the end. His was just warmer than tepid. Now onto the trumpet mushroom pasta that I ordered. One bite, pasta was undercooked! And the overall dish was too cold for me so I asked for them to heat it. I had eight pieces maybe nine pieces of pasta on my plate. It was a $26 dinner and she comes back and she says they're going to make me a fresh one and it'll be right out. After some 20 minutes go by, nothing...They brought out my to go order before my dinner. So I told them to keep it. As for the to go order, I ordered the pork Milanese. The pork looks lovely, but it was a to go order and they threw a very heavily dressed radicchio salad right on top in a box that was too small for the order and they handed it to me wide open and said here's your takeout order. I asked another waitress to get me another container so I could put the salad in that so we could at least close the two boxes. Lastly, no gloves are used when touching cooked food.... We will not go back...

It was a gorgeous day and we were able to sit outside, which I really enjoyed. They were umbrellas above us, which were much needed when it started to drizzle! I enjoyed the waiter, although my wife did not. He talked a lot and everything I asked him was his favorite. It didn't seem genuine. Especially when the table sat down next to us and everything they wanted or was his favorite too. We were disappointed that the one thing we wanted on the menu was not available for food. They're mocktails were a normal price and their cocktails were a little pricey, but well worth it for the craft that they were doing. I enjoyed both of the cocktails that I had, although was disappointed that they didn't have the monkey brains cocktail that I wanted anymore. Overall, it was a cute place and I'd probably go back to have a cocktail.

There were empty tables last night, but from what I read, it can get pretty crowded here. We ordered the Mudslides and they were really good, but a little too icy. Service was friendly and we felt very comfortable here. Loved the decor with the historic photos, the colored lights and the comfortable old style chairs. We'll be back on our next visit to Burlington!
