Fish Raw Bar restaurant is on one of the best blocks of Bleeker St in the West Village, between 7th Ave and Cornellia. The tiny block has bars, restaurants, a guitar shop, a boutique or two and Grom gourmet and (uber expensive) Florentine gelato. Every time I walk on this block I think how great it is, but until I ate a Fish today I think the only time I ever actually entered a business there was to get a tasty but overpriced scoop of Nocciola at Grom over 2 years ago.
I was invited to Fish to partake of their "oyster happy hour:" 6 fresh oysters and a pint on tap. I can't remember the last time I had oysters, but these were definitely better. They were salty and slimy and delicious. The got even better with the explosively flavorful and different sauces (I put sauce on everything, but I never would have thought of dousing oysters on the half shell with thick ginger wasabi dressing, tangy vinegar beet juice or homemade horseradish. Maybe that's (another reason) why I'm not a chef).
Nice place with a laid back vibe and food that's fresh and tasty. Not a bad twist on happy hour.
