Now that I've (recently) moved away, I do miss CM.. mostly for its proximity to Sunnyside & Glen Park, & for CRAZYGOOD hot-bar soups (especially the seafood/fishy ones). & the deli's enchilada pie. <3
The mussels are to die for!! Very accommodating to allergies, they were able to leave out the garlic and Dijon mustard while still producing fabulous mussels.
Classy and delicious. Oysters are some of the finest in the city and the selection is superb. Not inexpensive though. Wait list can pile up, so grab a beverage at the bar before you step in line.
*Happy Hour* $1 oysters on Mondays and Thursdays from 5 - 7pm. Get here before 4:30 so you can get seated before the rush. Read more.
You can ask to try samples of their wonderful selection of cheese. Don't forget to check out their ice cream in pints.
