"We stayed in east tulsa last Friday night and this place came up for oysters on the half shell. From the beginning: the phone was answered perfectly and our reservations were taken so happily and with a touch of humor. It looks nice from the outside. We were immediately greeted when we opened the door and within seconds were taken to our table. I love jazz. They have it playing at the perfect volume for nice background music. This is fine dining. Because they have fish flown in twice a day to their seafood market next door, everything is fresh. The wonderful assortment of oysters had us practically giggly!!! Our waitress recommended the New Zealand oysters which we'd never had. Amazing!!! Best I've ever tasted even when on the coast. I had shrimp lobster bisque and my fiancé had the clam chowder. Both were excellent but we liked the chowder best. The salads were beautiful BUT the lettuces had a bit of a chemical taste. The other ingredients were fresh and crisp with the goat cheese creamy and tart. The crusted salmon on a bed of crab risotto was delicious! Our drinks never went down an inch without being filled and our waitress was attentive without being intrusive. At the end she brought us a creme brûlée w fruit as a gift in the house. Then the manager came to our table asking if we'd enjoyed our meal. We were able to honestly say it was a truly great experience. However my fiancé is a business man and quietly confided his opinion of the lettuce. The mgr thanked him saying that's what he needed to know and offered to remove it from our bill. We declined saying it was still a fantastic experience and well worth it. He hurried back to fix the lettuce problem. Within minutes he came back with a gift wrapped pecan spice cake for us as a thank you. The staff are cheerful, the ambience is elegant yet comfortable and the food is amazing. We are already planning our next visit. Sorry there aren't more pics. It was so good I forgot!"
