The restaurant’s aesthetic’s are pleasing. The appetizers were good but very small in size and portion. I had 6 tasty bake oysters, tiny in size, not like they advertised on a video I seen. I ordered the squid ink linguine and lobster, my lobster wasn’t even a pound and it was overcooked and chewy. The linguine had no flavor, basically trash for $65. My sister had a crab cake burger that had no flavor. She took it home to doctor up, so she could eat it. This restaurant/bar setting is good for taking pictures and appetizers/drinks. Dinner go somewhere else.

This is a fairly new restaurant. Has been opened about a month or so. The atmosphere is really nice. It kind of reminds me of under the sea or under the water vibes. The house music is good. The waitstaff is very nice and knowledgeable of what they have to offer.

Really awesome addition to downtown Hartford! While here visiting friends, we decided to go for drinks. The inside is really trendy with cool art, fun lighting, and a unique theme. After looking at the menu I decided to try the lobster bisque. For $12 it’s definitely worth it and a must try. Every bite I took had lobster in it. Not to mention, the bowl was huge and definitely filled me up. The drinks were also fun and was maybe the best mojito I had. Our server was great and didn’t rush us despite it being super. The owner/manager also made it a point to stop at each table and check in. I hope Raw does well, it’s a super neat concept and is definitely somewhere I’ll go back to when visiting the area!

Chose this establishment out of so many other places to celebrate my 5th wedding anniversary … felt let down though the waitstaff was friendly I wasn’t impressed with my lobster mac (bland lacked seasoning) drinks looked nice (weren’t strong) husband’s lobster roll very small portion of lobster (compared to Newport, RI & Martha’s Vineyard) okay, overall decent experience willing to try happy hour and maybe do a taste test of different menu items…I must say I was expecting MUCH more this place was giving me #Sexy Fish Miami vibes but not yet there but there’s definitely room for improvement. Tried to support a new establishment in downtown Hartford.

Had oysters, littlenecks and drinks here — it was a great value since it was happy hour. Everything was great, and the vibe is pretty cool and funky…a fun place to hang. Hartford doesn’t have a lot of seafood options, so this is needed. Nice spot before or after a Yard Goats game.

The food was great! Our bartender Georgia was so sweet and super cute! She made our time there great! They greeted us and thanked us on our way out. Overall an amazing experience!

It was one of the worst dining establishments I’ve ever been to. Not only did I have to wait 45 minutes for my appetizer (Beef Tartar), which is just pretty much raw beef, why does it take 45 minutes to prepare a raw plate. but even the toast was cold. Everyone else at our party was already receiving their meals ( which was coming 1 plate at a time,about 20-30 minutes apart). Looking at their meals, I decided not to order my meal. We had a party of 12 people and only 1 person enjoyed their meal. Let’s just say we were there for a 7pm reservation, we all left at 11pm, which they messed up our reservation and seated us at the bar. What made it worse is that our waitress forgot to put in 1 of the orders and didn’t inform us until 2 1/2 hours into dinner. No apologies or compensation. She later told one of our guests she forgot to charge a plate that belonged to one of our party members that had already left for the night and if she would mind paying for it. She asked the person where she forgot to put the order into the kitchen. Let’s just say we would never return.
