"For those Enya-types, Neptune Oyster may be the perfect reprieve on your birthday. It’s one of the best places to eat in the city, but more importantly, it’s so small that it significantly decreases the chance that you’ll run into someone you know. Sit at the bar, order a whole platter of raw seafood, and listen to the soaring violins until your birthday is over and all is right with the world again." - joel ang, dan secatore, tanya edwards
