Great dining experience! We asked a local Uber driver for a seafood recommendation, and he pointed us here. The venue lived up to the hype! Staff was really great and super knowledgeable about everything on the menus. Specifically, I wanted to call out Jay, who was an oyster expert answering questions I didn't know I had. His service was also very accommodating. The crab cakes are a must get. Perfectly crispy outside, and the crab flavor couldn't have been better! I'll add that the muscles in white sauce were insane. We had to ask for extra bread for dipping because it was that good, well worth the price! Drinks here were strong and tasty. You should realistically have a reservation, but we enjoyed our time at the bar. Place is a Greta value price wise. Overall, I give Thames Street Oyster House a 4.5 out of 5!

Beautiful venue, and I can see why the hype about the atmosphere can be very elite. The thing about this spot is that for two people, you need to be ready to drop at least $1,000 in order to have the proper experience. To be fair, it's got the views, and I can tell the party would be cool, but without a group and a table, it isn't really worth it, in my opinion. The food was just okay, certainly not worth the price. Items ranged from $50 to $300, and the menu itself was limited. The service wasn't really great and the staff wasn't entirely friendly (at least to us). If you have a reservation before 8 pm, I would suggest changing it. 1) you'll likely be in the sun and it is super hot, 2) the party doesn't start until at least 9pm, 3) each drink will run you about $20 minimum, so unless you want to walk around for hours, a table will be your only option. To me, either you go there ready to spend over $1k, or you likely lied about what a good time you had. I could be wrong, of course. This is simply my opinion. Overall, I give Scorpios a 3 out of 5.

Confused that I hadn't heard of this place sooner, since I live so close, but damn! Fire drinks. Of course we only got two, but both were rediclously tasteful and strong. I got the "Bourbon Rum Affair" and it was perfect - manly, powerful and fall centric, would absolutely get it again. Here's the description: Silk City Straight Bourbon, Silk City Dark Rum, Local Apple Cider, Silk City Bourbon Barrel Aged Maple Syrup, Red Wine Reduction, Lemon Juice, Nutmeg. I also tried the "The Snozzberries Taste like Strawberries" and it might have been even better! Here's the description: Silk City Quinoa Whiskey, Muddled Strawberries, Chardonay Reduction, Agave, Peppercorn, Lemon Juice. Both were wins. Price wise it was a great value for the drinks. The service was really good, super friendly and professional bartender. Overall I give Silk City Distillers a 4.4 out of 5, would 100% return!
