About Us :

The Company brand began in 2017 when the founder set up a tent and a Coleman camping grill throughout Southern California in order to sell oysters, sea urchins and lobster rolls for pop-ups, events and outside busy businesses up and down the coast. After the success of his pop-ups, he decided to put down permanent roots in Malibu - a destination for pristine, locally sourced oysters, lobster rolls and other New England-inspired classics
