    Are you up for the challenge? If you finish 15 dozen oysters in under an hour? you will have conquered the Acme Oyster House Challenge. As seen on Travel Channel?s Man v. Food Nation.

    Get the grilled oysters.

    "Not only are the grilled oysters delicious, they're the perfect size to fit in a slingshot to shoot at your friends." - Conan O'Brien
  • Jimmy M.
    Get the chargrilled oysters over the regular raw ones. Way tastier.
  • Catherine B.
    There will be a line
  • Courtney K.
    I eat all over the US and one of the best things that I ever tasted are the chargrilled oysters, please order them.
  • Antonio R.
    The raw oysters on the half shell are AMAZING, a must have
  • Moe D.
    Check out the huge mirror behind the bar. It is original with the building.
  • Vu B.
    Get the medley for a bunch of tastes!
  • Laura H.
    Sit at the bar (better service) and eat grilled oysters. Eat after 8pm - less crowded.
