The Menu
The menu at The Lick was built around one question: what do you actually want to eat tonight? The answer is here—whether that's a dozen oysters and a glass of wine, a 40-ounce Tomahawk for the table, or a burger and beef tallow fries.
Raw Bar
The raw bar is where dinner starts—or where dinner lives. East Coast oysters sourced fresh, a Tenderloin Steak Tartare with slow-cooked egg and sourdough, and a Plateau de Fruits de Mer worthy of a celebration.
