About the restaurant

100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar is a spot where you can not only have a great meal, but a spot that functions as a bit of a social club too - a place to enjoy remarkable food + great company. One of our favorite parts of the night has been watching our customers interact - running into neighbors and friends, meeting up with family, or just enjoying a night out together - it's our own little social club.

The "raw bar" side - well that comes from wanting a nice, traditional oyster bar to belly up to and dive into raw oysters, clams, and other great seafood.

The two meet in our new spot, 100 Steps Kitchen + Raw Bar - welcome!

100 Steps is a BYO!

About the restaurant

We are excited to bring our dream to a reality along with friends and family. We plan to share our love and knowledge of an industry that we are so passionate about and proud to be a part of in our hometown of New Brunswick. Here at Salt, we are creating a modern oyster bar with a hip vibe serving up a large variety of fresh local oysters, as well as oysters from around the US. We will offer a seafood inspired seasonal menu both in our casual bar and our elegant dining room. We will also offer many innovative dishes including a variety of local meats along with plenty of vegetarian options. We aim to create an inviting atmosphere for everyone with our warm décor and friendly staff. Our full bar will feature a variety of signature cocktails and revolving creative small plates. Chef Chris’ passion for food promises consistent exceptional quality and to awaken the palate with bold, fresh flavors in every bite!

About the restaurant

Boulevard Seafood Company sources its seafood directly from the Fulton Fish Market in NY as well as other local purveyors. A retail seafood room displays these fresh catches of the day, available for purchase 7 days a week.

An open kitchen is the focal point of the 70-seat restaurant, which features a 6-seat counter for our Chef Table experience. To the rear is our casually appointed dining room, where we offer an array of daily dinner blackboard specials featuring the freshest seafood in the area.

Start with a fun selection from our fresh oyster raw bar! We are a BYOB so feel free to also bring your favorite beer and wine while letting our well-trained staff manage the rest!
