The Oyster Gourmet

Oyster Gourmet usually has anywhere from three to five different types of oysters, offering a nice variety in the heart of Grand Central Market. They also represent one of your best options if you’re looking to enjoy your oysters al fresco or at a private gathering, offering freshly shucked oysters on ice with lemons, cocktail and mignonette sauces, and horseradish in bundles ranging from a dozen ($45) to three dozen ($130).
The deal: $10 for three oysters, $19.50 for six.
How to book: Walk-in or order takeout online.
