OYSTER & MARTINI HAPPY HOUR: Nothing says summer on the patio quite like a dozen freshly-shucked oysters, and The Graceful Ordinary has taken that to the next level with their Oyster & Martini Happy Hours on Tuesday - Friday from 4pm - 6pm. Enjoy $2 a shuck oysters set up with all the classic fixings like mignonette, cocktail sauce, and fresh-sliced lemon wedges alongside a specialty menu of $10 martinis. Start with house gin or vodka, and have the bartender shake it (or stir it) up your way, or opt for a classic cosmo or citrusy lemon drop! Whichever you pick, enjoy your sipper & oysters with a side of breezy riverside views.
