What would a 5 à 7 be without oysters? That's perfect, because every day from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m., oysters are only $1 at Mignon Steak. To accompany them, choose between a delicious cocktail or the selection of classic and modern martinis. Whether you prefer it dry, dirty or a more original version, you'll find it at Mignon Steak in the Martini Room.
