    We came in for a friends birthday dinner and it was the perfect place for a girls night! Everything from the ambience, to the service, to the food was amazing. We shared a lot of food but the highlights were definitely the crab dip, twin filets (but with the dijon-shallot sauce, recommended by our server), and the BREAD PUDDING is a must!!

    Everything was good but just to noise for a restaurant of this stature. We had to yell to our guest that was with us.

    Another amazing dinner. I really like Rye Street. Great oysters, crab dip is delicious and the rockfish I have had it 3 times now. I hope it stays on the menu, but I think the menu changes seasonally, so hurry and get one, but I am sure another great dish will replace it!
