With its sweeping ceilings and stately grandeur, the Oyster Bar is a throwback to old New York, and yet, the long counter reminds me of any no-frills bus station luncheonette. Nonetheless, this restaurant has been here from the beginning (1913!), suffering a fire in 1997, but now restored to its original state with one of the longest seafood menus out there.
