Somewhat underwhelming for how expensive the food is. Service and atmosphere is nice. I really enjoyed the Nantucket scallops,... they were melt in your mouth and polenta was good. Portion seemed kind of small for $44. Spaghetti and clams was not worth the$27, very soupy bland spaghetti, rubbery scallops. Got some dressed oysters, and they were very small. Tuna pate was good.Cocktails were ok. Not very much in offerings outside of oysters overall. Read more

We made our reservations here months in advance to see what the hype was about. The cold bar seafood dishes were top notch. The... flounder and triggerfish larb were flavorful and fresh. Snapper carpaccio was colorful and delicious, we enjoyed the oeufs,smoked trout paté, little gems salad and oyster sliders. The triggerfish entree was light and delicious with the perfectbalance of crunch from the vegetables.the soft shell crab special was disappointingly salty. The budino was a great ending to aspectacular meal. The service was on point and the brown butter, pineapple infused mezcal drink was delicious. Would definitelygo back to enjoy more seafood here.

Very happy with our dining experience with The Ordinary. I had to cancel earlier reservation due to my delayed flight, came... anyway even though they were full. I had mentioned the earlier reservation that I had to cancel and they accommodated us rightaway. We sat by the oysters bar which was a full service. Friendly staff, occasion was annotated and we love the sweet b daynote. Drinks were good and we definitely enjoyed the seafood tower. Quite pricey but those Capers oysters were soo delicious.Love that they kept the original charm of the old bank. The old safe was by the oyster bar. Very nice restaurant. We love it. Read more

Great atmosphere. We didn’t have a reservation but beat the evening rush so they were able to accommodate us. Ate at the raw... bar and watched platter after platter of oysters being delivered. The person working behind the bar was quick andefficient. Our waiter was pleasant and attentive. He made sure we didn’t leave without trying their oyster sliders. Totallyworth it just for the sliders! We enjoyed our appetizers and meals. It was exactly how I expected seafood near the water wouldtaste. So glad we stumbled on it on our short walk from the hotel. Haha. My favorite was the oyster appetizer with the crackers.Yum! Read more

We came for a dinner, after we tried booking a table for a while, and it was well worth it! The restaurant is situated in an old... bank building, which brings a very special setting. The staff is very nice and attentive and we really felt taken care of. Thefood and the drinks were great too, especially the ceviche, and the fish cake. The house corn bread was also amazing. Wefinished with the the hazelnut chocolate mousse which was really delicious. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and providedgreat recommendations. Good wine and alcohol selection. Read more
