First, love the location of Pearl & Mary -- very walkable with so many restaurants and activities. We started off with oyster shooters and fried oysters. Both were great. The shooter had a bit of a kick to it. I would get it again. The fried oysters (not pictured), were just ok and I do wish they were fried harder. The cioppino...salty! I couldn't finish it and had to send it back. Heavy-handed on the seasoning is an understatement. It's too bad because all of the goodness of the sea was included -- from oysters, to shrimp, fish, mussels! The salt aside, this would have been a great dish. Service was meh. Not sure if I'd visit again. But, as I say, try for yourself! Cheers!

This would have been a 5-star review but the lemon-pepper chicken which a little too seasoned (salty) for me but dipping them in both a ranch and blue cheese dressing with a few dollops of Tabasco sauce was a good recommendation.

We went to a house show until 5 a.m. the night before and woke up late. Our reso was at 1:30, but…read morewe called and pushed it to 2:30. The hostess said no problem. Great phone voice, by the way. We walked to the restaurant during the purported "heat dome" weekend. Fortunately, the air conditioning is pristine. We sat at the oyster bar and recommend you do so too. Our waiter was great. We should have caught his name but didn't. Either way, he was a real one. P spotted some absolute babe across the bar and asked our waiter what she was drinking. Important side note: attractive people dine here, but not in an intimidating way if you're a normie. Turns out it was a mocktail from the Zero Proof menu. We don't judge. Our waiter then turned us on to an OG move: order a mocktail and add booze. P got the Pink Drink and added vodka. J ordered a Bee's Knees and a Firing Squad. All above average. Anyway, we created an oyster flight and got two of each, working our way across the Eastern Seaboard. The house sauce was fantastic and incorporated some sort of onion and horseradish combination. We don't pretend to understand what that sorcery was, but keep doing it. Create your own GD oyster flight. You won't regret it. We also ordered some shrimp cocktail and shared the lobster roll sandwich. We forgot to take pics, but the generic photo attached is actually how it looks. Not a bad bite. This was the perfect amount of food for two hungover people who took IR Adderall before the walk. We lingered for a while and they don't push you out. Ended up ordering a couple IPAs. They started shucking oysters to prepare for the dinner crowd, which is neat to watch when you're on the spectrum like us. Also, the walls are covered in different oyster plates. We spent about 20 minutes discussing which one was our favorite. We landed on a green one. It's a real vibe lifter of a joint. Brought us back to life. 10/10.

After walking around downtown, we were craving some seafood and decided to stop in…read more We started with the calamari and fries. Both were good, but the aiolis were a little overpowering when having them together. I'd probably choose one appetizer or the other next time rather than getting both--it gives your palate a little more of a chance to enjoy each flavor. For our entrée, we had the roasted oysters. They had a great mixture of flavors and were cooked perfectly. We finished with the key lime pie, which had a subtle, refreshing flavor, and I loved the coconut flakes on top. Our waiter was efficient and attentive, and the atmosphere made you feel like you could be sitting somewhere right beside the beach. I especially loved all the oyster plates covering the walls--such a fun touch that added to the coastal feel.

After driving around for 20 minutes to find parking I called and they had not received my order. Uber Eats or Door Dash must be the preferred. Or call! Anywho, Uber Eats delivered. It was cold. I don't believe the other lobsters rolls I had were cold. These were and still good. Maybe they are warm if you pick up ‍ They give ample portions and the butter is on the side. Three ramekins! One for each roll. I only needed one for all three. Note to self: always ask for butter on side. The shrimp roll was packed. Thankful because the baby shrimp were baby. The lobster roll was about 1 claws worth. It was the crab that shocked me. Overflowing with crab meat. Everything was fresh. The bread was soft and buttered. I didn't taste much 'seasoning' it was well 'flavored' and covered in oregano (?) I would return. It's a cute little spot that is in the basement of a building. I didn't go in, I know the area well.

You could tell she genuinely wanted to connect with every guest and make sure they had a great experience. We started with the roasted oysters, and they were easily the best roasted oysters I've had in a very long time--if not the best ever. For pizza, we went with our waitress's recommendation and ordered the corn and jalapeño pizza. Definitely not a combination I ever would have thought to put together, but whoever came up with it--thank you! The homemade crust was perfectly crispy, and the combination of flavors was incredible. Sweet, savory, a little heat--it was a total flavor bomb in the best possible way. Such a fun atmosphere, wonderful service, and food that surprised us in all the right ways. We'll definitely remember this one!

I came here with two friends for a belated birthday meal and everything was delicious!

To start I have always loved Estia. I love their other restaurant Almyra as well. As a family we…read morehave been coming here for parties and hosting dinners and events in the main area or in various private rooms downstairs for over 15 years. Last night we hosted a dinner of 10 people in the small wine room in the basement. It's a very cute room. It's perfect for a small group. Unfortunately that's where the perfect ends. Our server seem nice enough in the beginning, but couldn't really get it together to be around to make sure that we had what we needed, there was no one there to check on us to handle the timing for drinks, appetizers, etc. When we arrived, the room was an icebox. It was freezing, which was easy to fix as the settings were in the room. The table was dressed with the regular things, but the hummus was in two tiny dishes that had obviously been sitting there for a while and were crusted on top and bread that was cold, no pita nothing cooked. That was one of our table dishes that we ordered as well as taramosalata, calamari and spanakopita. The taramosalata we had ordered as an additional item on a $65 per person set menu with options for your entrée. Unfortunately, it was very bland not the way it used to be when it came. It also did not come with pita which we had to ask for and both the hummus and taramosalata came in teeny tiny dishes, almost the size is what you'd put your soy sauce in at a sushi restaurant. There were four of those tiny dishes (2 of each item) for a table of 10. The next to come was the calamari and the spanakopita. Honestly, I've had better versions of this frozen from Costco than we were served last night. The calamari was not fresh and not homemade, there were no tentacles nothing but rings. It was also cold by the time we got it and par baked. The spanakopita were teeny, tiny triangles, smaller than what you'd even get at Costco and folded so many times in the dough that they were not flaky and honestly horrible. Nobody ate them. Next to come were the salads. That was probably the best course of the night. The take on a Caesar salad with dill was very good so was the tomato traditional Greek salad with feta. It would be nice though if they broke up the feta as there was only three large pieces of feta in there, and if anyone took one, then when you passed things down, the other people did not get any. Seeing as this was all served family style you would think they might have thought of that. Next was the main courses the options were a chicken dish, a fish dish, a lamb dish and a pasta dish. Honestly, the fish dish looked the best of all the dishes, but by the time the food got to us, everything was no longer hot. Five people ordered lamb dishe which was almost inedible. It was shredded meat from a lamb shank that was served in a tiny circular way like it had been molded into a dish and then turned over with some sort of strange sauce underneath it that supposedly was pasta. It was so small it might as well have been something that you would've gotten as an appetizer. Ironically, it was so bad that you didn't want to eat it and everyone left it on their plate. Personally, mine had shards of bone in it, which made my first bite extremely unpleasant and sadly my second bite did too, so I just pushed the it aside and did not continue eating. There was no option for dessert. They just brought down some sort of honey cake that unfortunately they didn't ask if anyone had allergies or anything which a lot of of us do so only a few could eat it, one person ended up taking the majority of the cake home with them. All of this went unnoticed by our server who was rude to the majority of our party. As mentioned before we normally love this restaurant but last night was not a good experience at all. It was extremely disappointing to be treated so cavalierly and as if our party was a downstairs was an afterthought.
