I went here for a light, late dinner on Sunday and we enjoyed it overall. It was probably about 8pm and we were able to be seated immediately. The ambiance is cute but the interior is a little loud/conversations were pretty clearly heard. This admittedly does depend on whoever else is dining but this felt a little bit more like a place to hang out with friends rather than date night because of it. The oysters were fine but I thought it was strange they didn't tell me the type considering "oyster bar" Is part of their name. I thought the crab tostada was pretty good and same for the yellowtail tiradito. The bluefin tostada is definitely meant as an homage to poke, and it would have been great with rice. As is, it was on the salty side for me so I would probably skip this one next time.

I happened to stumble across this place as I was walking through little Italy and its was amazing. This place is absolutely beautiful. The ambiance is gorgeous but also casual during the day. It's located right in the heart of little Italy. They have happy hour Mon-Fri 3pm-5pm. The happy hour menu is amazing! Most of the dishes and drinks are under $10 and they have $1 oysters. That alone sold me! We got a half dozen and they were so fresh. They also had a variety of hot sauce to pair with. Absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

Happy Hour is worth it!! Definitely make a reservation as it can be pretty packed even on a weekday. Overall I would highly recommend the tostadas and oysters. The dishes all tasted super flavorful and had a lot of fun aspects to them. There was texture, citrus, and also lots of fresh seafood! Our faves were Oysters Black Mamba Tostada - packed and great flavors Augustin Verde - very citrusy and a nice starter Torched scallops - our favorite dish

Coctel de mariscos: Our server Leo mentioned that this dish is usually served in a beer glass however because he knew we were sharing, the dish was brought in a bowl. The coctel was citrusy and the fish and octopus were fresh. The avocado provided a pleasant creaminess to the dish. Oyster platter: The mignonette was a bit salty for my tastes but you have the ability to control how much you'd like to add to each oyster. With a splash of Tabasco to balance out the umami-ness of the mignonette, the oysters were great! Bluefin Tostada: Topped with furikake, this dish came out looking really pretty. There's a generous layer of avocado/guacamole underneath the tuna. This dish was rich from the avocado and tuna. We would order this one again! The star of the lunch was the Uni Tuna Ceviche. The uni was delivered that morning and tasted similar to the time when we foraged for Uni. Slightly sweet, creamy, and a tiny hint of ocean saltiness. This dish was presented in the shell which is great for photos. The taste of Uni was present throughout the dish even though the main Uni pieces were delicately placed on top.

Loved this place!! Definitely want to come back for happy hour since they have one dollar oysters. Evening we got was so fresh and amazing. The yellowtail tostada was to die for! Service was great and it was cute inside.

Small plates, fresh seafood and decent cocktails. Service was quick. Small space, but they take reservations via Open Table. Would visit again, if in the area.

After browsing around the farmers market we decided to have lunch here. Their menu had the extensive offerings of different seafood dishes. We ordered uni toast, octopus carpaccio, soft shell crab tacos, and scallop & mushroom risotto. The uni and caviar toast had lot more tuna than uni but it was delicious. The soft shell crab tacos were one of the best we've had in a while. The octopus cappuccino was okay. The scallops and risotto were cooked perfectly and it tasted very good. Great service. We love to come back and try different dishes in the future.

⁣ SEAFOOD LOVERS DELIGHT - @crudo.cevicheria ⁣ If you love seafood, this is the spot. Located in the heart of Little Italy, this cevicheria and oyster bar is a must try. Everyone was super attentive and nice, the ambience was relaxing and the music was on point. Leo had great suggestions on what to order and everything was to die for. I got the following: ⁣ ⁣ * lychee saketini - Out of all the lychee cocktails I've ever had, this has been the most flavorful. ⁣ * uni caviar toast - Talk about the toast of my dreams. It had a mix of bluefin, uni, sturgeon caviar and cucumber salad. ⁣ * dashi beurre blanc noodles - If you love seafood pasta, this is a must try. There's blue crab, trout caviar, parmesan and chives in this masterpiece. ⁣ ⁣ I can't wait to come back and try more deliciousness. If you ever make the trek to Little Italy and craving seafood, I highly recommend this spot. ⁣

Nice decor and space. They offer bar seating inside and patio space. Nice place to enjoy some seafood Beverage they offer cocktails Sangria wine beer. Good raw bar selection as well as hot items Raw bar is pretty much the same as every where I guess that's where the cravings and decor comes in. Hot items have tacos and pasta. Soft shell crab taco was good but the pastas a bit salty to my liking. Overall if you're in little Italy and want some seafood this is a good place to go
