The best seafood boil I’ve had in America. There were like 8 different types of oysters and the waiter recommended the one I wanted. Sweet and good. Not fishy at all. The seafood boil was amazing with a reasonable price. The lobster in it was quiet good quality. Muscles were countless and good. Shrimps were also remarkable. I wasn’t expecting such good seafood but it was a really nice surprise. 10/10.

I really enjoyed this restaurant. I came here for restaurant week. The waitress was very friendly and helpful, helping my mom and I figure out what wine to drink. For appetizers, I got clam chowder and my mom got oysters. The clam chowder was creamy and flavorful. I did burn my tongue a little so be careful. My mom enjoyed here oysters, which according to her were fresh. For entrees I got linguine and clams and my mom got the grilled Spanish octopus. We both really enjoyed our dishes. I found the the noodles to be cooked well in a nice seasoned broth. The clams were also good as well. My mom found the octopus to be cooked and seasoned perfectly. Finally for dessert I got the key lime pie and my mom got the banana pudding. I found the pie to be delicious, jammed packed with lime flavor. My mom enjoyed her banana pudding, saying it was the perfect amount of sweetness. The atmosphere of the restaurant is great. It wasn’t too loud so you can actually have a conversation. I would definitely recommend and I definitely plan to go back.

Came here randomly for lunch Sunday—luckily there was availability so we grabbed two seats at the bar. Our bartender Teresa was awesome—friendly, attentive and made really great cocktails!

Absolutely loved this place! So good! The rolls are small but melt in your mouth with amazing flavor! Best of all…the banana pudding dessert. That says a lot because seafood is hard to beat, especially at this place! Highly recommend! Make reservations! Very busy and small venue.

Love this place! Enjoyed fabulous oysters, shrimp, and out-of-this-world scallops. A shame that plastic cups are used, but was glad the plates were biodegradable. Friendly staff. Highly recommend!

I am a oyster lover and I always try to find good hidden sports for it. We tried their oyster samples which were amazing and fresh. Their Jalapeño margarita was also really good. They offer food, beers and apps. Its a really good place to stop by in NYC.

One of my best girlfriends was walking around the Chelsea Market and decided to give Cull & Pistol a try. No regrets! The place is clean and the service is of quality. The food was finger-licking good. We shared the calamari, the lobster roll, and fries. The location is also great. Plus you’re right in the middle of a market. You can get your steps in after devouring the food and conceiving the food baby. Hahaha. I cannot wait to come back to try the other options.
