Raw oysters SOWAL

[DD]

But it was closed. The outside might have appeared rustic, maybe even charming. But the beauty of the place was that it was far from charming. It was come in, or not, we don't care. We might take your order, or we might not, and we might cook your food, but we are not happy about it. As a matter of fact, take your beer and leave so we can go home. And don't ever come back. Until tomorrow when maybe we feel better. But don't count on it because we ain't charming. Get it? Got it? Don't let the door hit ya' where the good lord split ya'.

Are you still here?

ok....so maybe I'll skip it.

I don't recommend skipping it. I just ended up needing a lot of words to convice you it wasn't charming. :roll:

heh
That not-so-charming attitude described by Kurt is still to be found at various other places around the PSJ area.
Destindreamin, I will try IPRB and report back. After a year of being out of business, by this time they might well appreciate getting a few customers. ;-)

Now I'm confused. They are open now or not yet?

Those folks made the "soup nazi" on Seinfeld appear friendly. However, for those oysters - it was worth having to follow their rules.

Know what you want before it's time to order
Don't arrive at the restaurant closer to 30 - 45 minutes before closing time
Don't ask for anything special

Well, come to think of it, those are pretty good guidelines.

Please do!

once we went to the raw bar and they told us they were getting ready to close (it was early evening). the locals told us that they were just trying to get rid of tourists - they stay open pretty late for local partying.

but the oyster-nazi place is a great spot. really! just very remote and settled into their own ways.

Their website says "mid-July."
So hopefully they open very soon.
I'll keep you posted--maybe I'll check them out tomorrow.

Okay, I stopped by the Indian Pass Raw Bar today.
They were absolutely charming!
I'm not kidding, they really were nice, but then Dennis took them out of the business a year ago this week so they are probably excited and happy to be back.
They will, if everything goes okay, be officially open for business this Friday the 14th, at noon. Their hours will be Tuesday through Saturday, 12 to 9.
Eat in or take out.
Oysters by the bag or dozen, raw, steamed or baked, plus shrimp, burgers and hot dogs and a few other things. Beer/wine/pop. Key lime pie, too.
The place looks very nice, certainly not super fancy but obviously not as rustic as it once was.
So any SoWallers who venture out this way on a nice day trip, give 'em a try.
Email me first and I will meet you for a beer. ;-)
