“As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.”
Ernest Hemingway, "A Moveable Feast"
“Anyone can find a respectable mayo-drenched lobster roll or adequately clammy clam chowder in these parts. But for something truly memorable, you’ll need to head to the always packed Neptune Oyster for the johnnycake.”
— Bon Appétit
“Order it hot with butter, or cold with mayo. Either way, sizable chunks of lobster will overflow the warm brioche roll, leaving you to dig in with a fork before attempting to pick up any stragglers with your hands.”
— Boston Magazine
“Small but charming North End raw bar that obsesses over fresh oysters and lobster rolls.”
— Condé Nast Traveler
