Locust

Locust lives up to the hype. Favorites were the oysters (you HAVE to try their hot sauce) and the early gray ice (truly this was a wild desert, I have never had anything like it). We also had the horseradish vodka as a pallet cleanser for the seafood, and boy, it was wild. The atmosphere is relaxed, and everyone working is just having a great time.

Our experience at Locust was incredible from start to finish. From the moment we were greeted at the door, welcomed by the staff inside, to the moment we walked out, the entire experience was so welcoming and warm. Everyone was so kind, helpful, and sharply knowledgeable. I cannot say enough about the menu. We both started with arguably the best unfiltered orange wine that I have ever had, then moving to the horseradish vodka shot, absolutely wild and a great palate cleanser. We started with the tuna crisp, razor clams (both of our first time, delicious), and beef tartare hand rolls (super fun, some of the most flavorful beef I have ever had, and the instruction card made us laugh). Next we got the Berkshire pork dumplings (such nice flavor and texture, and the chili oil went super hard). The crab omelet was one of the best things I have ever had genuinely. The consistency of the egg, thickness wise and texture wise was so impressive, also the still gooey egg in the center melting into the crab was just something else. Absolutely killer. Lastly I knew we had to get the shaved ice, and it did not disappoint. The tart raspberry, silky earl grey mouse, and dusting of salt was complex and enjoyable. I am so happy my friend and I got a chance to experience Locust and the mastery of Chef Moran and the entire team in this meal.

Top tier every visit! Cannot wait to come back for more!

The lunch was excellent, the service was upper class, the chef and personel are easy-going people. You have here raw food, it is actually a walhalla for raw food, where the focus lies in the ingredients; and you have here fine food, where the focus is more on the modernity of the plates. Thanks for everything Locust Team!

Came here for my partner’s birthday and they really made it so special. Great service, food, ambience. Will be returning.

Love this place!!
