WHEN ALL THE ORDERS DON’T REACH THE TABLE
AT THE SAME TIME—IT’S BECAUSE WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE LIKE MOST OTHER RESTAURANTS

We will not hold an item on a counter trying to keep it warm until the entire order is ready to be served. If an order of fried oysters comes out of the fry pot, we want it taken to your table in a matter of seconds—not kept lukewarm under a heat lamp until your grilled snapper or well-done NY strip is ready. Of course, we will try to get all of the orders to you at the same time, but serving you high quality, hot food in a prompt and courteous manner is our main objective.

EVERYONE AT THE 42ND ST. OYSTER BAR WORKS AS A TEAM
You don’t have to look for the person who took your order when you want additional help, just ask the first person you see. This is why you might have more than one person delivering food and beverages to your table. When something gets ready, the closest available person will serve you.
