Seafood & oysters
Reserve
99 Queen St East · Downtown Toronto
Oysters first. Brisket next. Bourbon when the ice hits the glass. An elegant Queen East dining room for East Coast oysters, serious cocktails, seafood, and live-fire BBQ.
Recognized by
Oysters on ice, a bright cocktail, a glass of something cold. The table settles in.
Brisket sliced thick, ribs with gloss, crisp chicken, sides plated for sharing.
Bourbon over ice, dessert in the middle, a host who knows your name on the way out.
At the table
The Carbon Bar evening moves from cold oysters and cocktails into brisket, ribs, crisp chicken, and sides plated for the middle of the table.
Most guests come in expecting BBQ. They leave talking about the oysters, the cocktails, and the room.
