The Whelk - Reserva de mesa

Excellent dining experience. My daughter discovered this place about a year ago. Was staying at a place nearby and searched for recommendations. As we both love seafood, we decided to give it a try. Best decision we made. We had the oysters to start and also ordered the old bay fries. Oysters were freshly harvested that day, they were delicious. The fries are freshly made from potatoes and cooked just right. When we made our reservation we made it for 4:30 which is the start of their happy hour. Definitely a plus since we had about 4 dozen oysters and 2 drinks each. They only serve the best alcohol , not watered down. The atmosphere was perfect. There were even a few kids there which was nic...

I visited this restaurant for a light early dinner and found ourselves to be the only guests. Our server, Nicole, was fantastic. They offer a happy hour, which is somewhat limited, but there are definitely some good options available. We started with a half dozen oysters, which were on special for just $1.50 each. Following that, we tried the roasted oysters and crab toast. I really wish the portions were larger for both! The kimchi butter on the oysters was absolutely delicious, and the crab toast was fantastic as well. To round out our meal, we ordered the deviled eggs with fried oysters, which were also great. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and I’m looking forward to trying the pa...

This restaurant is fantastic! The location, decor, food, and ambiance are all excellent, and I always enjoy my visits. However, I have to deduct a point because it's quite expensive for what you receive, and it’s also closed on Sundays. Since I get two days off each week, I find it frustrating that I can't enjoy a long, leisurely brunch or lunch there on half of those days. It seems to me that they don’t prioritize their customers.

We started with oysters, which were freshly harvested that day and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the Old Bay fries, made from fresh potatoes and cooked to perfection. When we made our reservation for 4:30 PM, we timed it perfectly to coincide with their happy hour. That was definitely a bonus, as we ended up enjoying about four dozen oysters and two drinks each. They take pride in serving only the finest drinks. Reserva una mesa ahora

The food is decent, and the service is fine, but I'm really not happy about the 20% service fee added to my bill for just two people. I understand this policy for larger groups, but service fees, gratuities, and tips should be earned and are not mandatory for customers. This approach to business is very disappointing and can frustrate customers to the point of writing negative reviews.

Amazing selection of oysters! We also had the fanciest fish sticks on earth as well as pretty tasty toast with muscles. You can’t beat the location and we were lucky because it was unusually warm for a fall day so we enjoyed sitting outside. The cocktails would be worth a trip on their own too!!

My husband and I popped into the world tonight for dinner and couldn't have been more happy with our experience. From the cocktails to the wine to the appetizers and entrées, all the food was superb. The service was also really great and attentive. It was fun to sit at the bar and watch the craft cocktails be made.

We had a wonderful date night! I started with an amazing cocktail that came with a fantastic garnish. For our meal, we shared the burrata, squid ink cavatelli, deviled eggs, and my absolute favorite, the broccolini—I was blown away by how delicious it was! Reserva una mesa ahora
