Our Next-Level Experience Chilled Shellfish Tower
All eyes will be on your party when we deliver this extravagant tower to your table. Buttery sweet North Atlantic Lobster. Massive shrimp. Freshly shucked oysters. And then there’s the proverbial cherry on top: a luscious layer of beautifully presented Alaskan Golden King Crab Legs. Our Chilled Shellfish Tower is available in two sizes. Our large tower has three opulent tiers and is designed to delight a party of 4-6 Guests. Our small two-tiered tower is curated for 1-2 Guests, making it ideal for a more intimate occasion. Whatever brings you in to dine with us, whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, major milestone or “just because,” we invite you to mark your towering accomplishments and everyday moments alike with our Chilled Shellfish Tower.
Let's Take it From the Top
Alaskan Golden King Crab Legs
It’s appropriate that the crown layer of our Chilled Shellfish Tower is the Golden King Crab. Harvested from the rocky, volcanic waters surrounding the remote Aleutian Islands of Alaska, these prickly, golden-hued crab legs are subtler in sweetness than the more widely known Red King Crab. They’re found at extreme, icy-cold depths reaching more than 1800 feet below sea level, making them a more challenging and hence, highly prized catch. And because we believe your dining experience should be pure leisure and joy, we expertly crack these delicate treasures on your behalf, ensuring that when they arrive at your table, they’re effortless to enjoy.
RECOMMENDED PAIRINGOur house-made creamy mustard sauce. The rich, sweet notes from the King Crab are beautifully offset by the sauce’s velvety texture and a subtle, zesty kick.
North Atlantic Lobster Tails and Claws Alongside Colossal Shrimp
Last but certainly not least is a timeless tier of North Atlantic Lobster Tails and Claws and Colossal Shrimp. Our North Atlantic Lobster gets its distinctively sweet, buttery flavor from the ice cold, mineral-rich waters of the North Atlantic Ocean, from Maine to Canada. Meanwhile our shrimp are colossal in both size and flavor — but they’re also remarkably flavorful. Make every bite more vibrant with our cocktail sauce that provides a zesty contrast to the shrimp’s delicate nature.
Oysters with House-made Mignonette
The second tier of our Chilled Shellfish Tower is equally impressive, featuring freshly shucked Prince Edward Island Chappell Creek Oysters. Prince Edward Island's cold, nutrient-rich waters create an ideal habitat for oysters to thrive. Our healthy-sized PEI Chappell Creek Oysters are known for their clean, briny flavor and lightly sweet finish. They're served alongside our house-made mignonette sauce, crafted from a blend of red wine, rice wine vinegar, and minced shallots that enhances the natural brininess of the oysters.
Our Secret Sauce
We've got three. Experience the robust tang of our cocktail sauce, the velvety richness of our creamy mustard sauce, and the boldness of our brandy mustard sauce. There’s no wrong combination — we encourage exploration — but if there's one pairing you absolutely must try, it's the Alaskan Golden King Crab Legs with our creamy mustard sauce.

Our new hand-harvested Oysters from Prince Edward Island are now a menu staple. They're refreshingly cold. Slightly salty. And perfect for sharing. We can't think of a more exquisite way to start any memorable dining experience — than with a tiny celebration of briny elegance.
About Our Chappell Creek Oysters
Prince Edward Island has long been known as an oyster-lover's paradise, which is why we intentionally chose to source our Chappell Creek Oysters straight from the source. Much like wine and terroir, oysters have a concept called merroir. This refers to how their flavor is influenced by the unique characteristics of the waters where they are grown, such as salinity and mineral content. PEI's mineral-rich ice-cold waters create the ideal environment for these extra-large oysters to thrive and give them a clean, briny flavor and lightly sweet finish. Enjoy them a la carte, by the dozen or half dozen.
Our House-Made Mignonette
Crafted to enhance the full oceanic essence of fresh oysters, our mignonette is prepared in small batches and is a blend of high-quality red wine, tangy rice wine vinegar, and minced shallots. The sauce enhances, but never overpowers the natural taste of the oysters, allowing the unique qualities of each freshly shucked oyster to shine through.
Ideal Cocktail and Wine Pairings
Dry Martini
Feeling extra salty? Pair our refreshing PEI Chappell Creek Oysters with a classic Dirty Martini. The oysters’ brininess complements the martini’s own briny notes, making an already bold choice even bolder.
Dry Sparkling White Wine
Sparkling white wine and oysters have long been a classic coupling. The bright bubbles elegantly contrast the smooth texture of the oysters while adding layers of complexity. Known for its bright acidity and effervescence, this acidity acts as a palate cleanser, cutting through the richness of the oysters and refreshing the taste buds between bites.
Sauvignon Blanc
The hint of lemon flavors and high acidity in a Sauvignon Blanc makes it especially good for sipping alongside raw oysters. Because it’s typically a light to medium-bodied wine, it doesn't overpower the delicate nature of oysters. Instead letting our PEI Chappell Creek Oysters nuances shine through.
