Where is this place at?

Perfect question. Perfectly phrased. Within the context of "Hillbillies".
I salute you sir! =)

the last "Hillbillies" i done heered of wuz up thar round Arcadia . . .

(none of the Legal Moonshine pictured for the ambance/effect is actually approved for human consumption. of course . . . any of it could make raw oysters more palatable. yet may contain peanuts and or other allergens. and cause auditory hallucinations including muffled train horns.)

just kidding: I hope they live long and prosper. really.
the xeriscaping alone draws me to the concept. even including oysters.

It's the old Pachinko Parlor on 9th Street east of Broadway.

9th Street - Right beside the BNSF tracks.

I was going to give it a try today but the last time I tried a new restaurant I was accused of slander and being someone who I am not..... I'll give them a couple of days.

I heard it straight from a person directly involved in the opening of a different New! concept restaurant that I should give it a month. I will believe him. He is a true chef (or at least a person who has devoted his life to the hospitality industry specifically in the area of actually preparing the food)and has no reason to lie. =) on the other hand he did mention how yummy raw sea urchin is and was thinking that the road to success could be paved with a product resembling "duck confit in a can" . . . =)

Again: I wish only the best for these culinary entrepeneurs.

A salute to the menu, Regarding Po' Boy Option Number 7

"Why you dlag my name into this? I no 'hirrbirry' . . .
I rive on Pondelosa. Near Vilginia City, Nevada.
By Lake Tahoe not by some 'ce-ment pond'.
Entilely diffelent show . . .
Is this some sort of Confusion Cuisine?"

"This nealy offensive as term 'Koonass' on dlink risting.
Oh. Wait. You say 'Hopsing.'
My name 'Hop Sing' . . .
That very diffelent. Nevel mind."

(Yet, to me, simply one more reason--in addition to the pioneering xeriscaping, next to a railroad track--to put the place at the top of my To Visit List! Well . . . in the Top Three.)

Go with Brian and post a joint restaurant review here. That will get all of us included in the lawsuit!

Do they have a website/menu?

Well, I guess they put a few items for us veggies on the menu. I had lunch at Iguana yesterday and had no idea this place was so close to opening.

So the oyster bar doesn't really serve oysters or is that just not the full menu?

They may not be prepared the way you like, but oysters are on that menu.

I like fried oysters, I just thought they'd have more oyster offerings since oysters are in the name of the place.

Might not be that many hillbillies there either.

Well, you have to consider that "hillbilly" is a term closely associated Appalachia and yet they are serving food more closely aligned with Louisiana/Gulf Coast. But we'll just let that oversight slide.

Of course, my family is from Southern Louisiana so I am just a stickler for these things. Definitely going to have to try this place out.

If they did that, they'd have to change the name to Cajun's Po Boy and Oyster Bar.
Oh. Wait . . . Aren't Po Boys sort of a cajun thing anyways?

[RadicalModerate]

shucks.

Say! Would "Shuck's" be a good name for an oyster bar?
And how old would they have to be before you could serve them a Moonshine Cocktail?
what sort of ID would be required . . .
