Hate to be cliche with this one, but it's a 5-Star for the Lobster Roll. Granted, we also tried the Blue Crab Salad, but it's a clear 5-Star. I highly...read more

The Scene
With seating for only 35 or so, Neptune Oysters packs an impressive amount of drinking and dining action into a limited amount of space. Upon entering, patrons pass a well-stocked raw bar that's guarded by a statue of the restaurant's namesake. With red leather seating, marble tables, and mirrors covered in listings of daily specials, the interior yields a distinctly Old World vibe. Pleasant servers take the sting out of the well-chosen wine list's high prices.
The Food
Besides serving standard raw bar fare (hulking shrimp cocktail, breathtaking shellfish platters), Neptune stays true to its neighborhood by dotting its menu with Italian-tinged seafood preparations (lobster scampi, oyster minestrone). Can't-miss offerings include a meaty Maine lobster roll (served cold with mayo or hot with butter) and savory red snapper with piquant green olives and roasted garlic bulbs. Because dessert isn't served, diners can handle an extra order of Ostervilles or Island Creeks.
