As some of you might know, the DTM’s neighbor One Meatball Place at 513 West Main Street has closed, giving way to a place called Public Fish & Oyster, an East Coast seafood and raw bar place. Now they’ve announced they will be opening on February 4. Former Camino chef Matt Turner is in the kitchen and former Farmington Country Club manager Daniel Kaufman is the GM. Check out the menu below. Oh, they are also looking for bartenders, servers, and experienced oyster shuckers.
