The Grand Central Oyster Bar is a pretty famous spot in New York City located in the Grand Central Terminal off of 42nd St. This is the central train hub that people take to go towards upstate New York and beyond such as Connecticut. I had been here a while back, but this would be the first time for my partner. What better way is there other than to grab some oysters before jumping on a train back home.

This used to be in the Lower East Side, but I guess they set up shop in this Gansevoort Market area. It wasn’t that good. I prefer the A Salt & Battery place instead.

Got the soft shell poboy. Was decent for lunch. $17 for fries, drink, and a poboy. The normal stuff is rather expensive. Probably a $2-3 per pound markup compared to LA.

This is Marc Forgione’s fast food-ish restaurant near Penn Station. I got the chili lobster here, but it’s not as good as having it at the restaurant. It’s also CLOSED.

Surprisingly good. The oyster shuckers did a good job keeping it juicy. Happy hour is cheap!

British style fish & chips.

Seafood centric. Ambience is good, but the food is eh.

Different cooking styles for all types of oysters. Was pretty good.

Scallops and clam strips were good. Pickles were salty not sour.

Good restaurant. I like the spanish octopus, fish churros, and pork chop. Unfortunately, it’s CLOSED.
