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!

Wonderful restaurant - great food and top notch service. Only concern was the super different wine ordering process/policy. The wine menu is only online via a QR code AND if you only want a single glass of wine, you literally have to filter through, ask, have them go check (assuming to see if you have a bottle or have a bottle open) . . . if that answer is no, you have to repeat the whole process. For a restaurant of this caliber, I would absolutely expect a more customer friendly process.
