    Description
    New York City was once a world-renowned oyster town, and this beloved 90-year-old landmark, nestled in Grand Central’s lower level, reminds diners of that former glory. Two large rooms flank a white-topped counter where eaters can choose from around 30 varieties of bivalves. Since the delicacy isn’t terribly filling, try one of the famously huge desserts: The apple pie bursts forth with razor-thin slices of fruit.
