Susannah and Marc Yeoman took over the lower Stuart St institution at the beginning of February, and yesterday put on the menu one of the restaurant's trademark dishes - new season's oysters.
A hundred and fifty dozen oysters arrived late yesterday afternoon and Mrs Yeoman said they were hoping to be able to secure about 200 dozen a day once they "got the ball rolling".
The restaurant is selling a dozen cooked oysters for $40 and a dozen raw for $35.
Last year, they were $38 cooked and $36 raw.
The owner of Harbour Fish in St Andrews St, Aaron Cooper, returned from Bluff yesterday morning with nearly 700 dozen oysters for his shop and for other fish and chip shops.
His price for first grade raw oysters is $24.50 and for second grade $19.
A spokeswoman for Blue Water Products, in Wharf St, said the company would have oysters today and the price there would be $24.50 and $19.
