100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar is a spot where you can not only have a great meal, but a spot that functions as a bit of a social club too - a place to enjoy remarkable food + great company. One of our favorite parts of the night has been watching our customers interact - running into neighbors and friends, meeting up with family, or just enjoying a night out together - it's our own little social club. The "raw bar" side - well that comes from wanting a nice, traditional oyster bar to belly up to and dive into raw oysters, clams, and other great seafood. The two meet in our new spot, 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar - welcome!100 Steps is a BYO!

    We are frequent diners at 100 Steps. They switch up the menu often. Very unique menu that never disappoints. Very good specials, particularly the happy hour appetizers. And of course their raw bar is very good. Always have an east coast dozen oysters.

    The service was excellent. This was lunch by the way. The food & variety I always find very good. The atmosphere is fine. Getting to the parking lot is a little difficult. It's a BYOB if you like that. I do. I've done lunch and dinner hear and always enjoyed it.
