To be fair, this rating for Oyster and Chop has a great deal to do with the loud, obnoxious, foul-mouthed group of men sitting at the table next to us. (Even the one woman with the group was mortified) The restaurant was not full and the staff could have put the group of five a little apart from the other diners. However, we basically stopped talking because we could not hear one another. The food was very good, but the service was slow. That would have been fine if we could have enjoyed ourselves. We ordered oysters, the fish of the day (excellent-red snapper), steak (excellent but very large!), and salmon with an unusal preparation with beets which was lovely and well done.
