Smaller and more relaxed than many of the other restaurants packed in the 2 blocks of the Main north of Sherbrooke, the highlight of this storefront bistro is its oysters. A typical night features 14 varieties from the Atlantic (New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia) and Pacific (British Columbia, Japan). The staff, which claims that Maestro offers the biggest oyster selection in town regardless of season, is happy to help you pick a few to taste. The PEI Raspberry Point (who knew?) is particularly salty when contrasted with the smooth and creamy BC Kusshi. A wall of fame of signed oyster shells includes signatures by the mayor of Montréal and scary guy Marilyn Manson. Main-course options include Louisiana seafood and the Maestro Platter, an extravagant medley of clams, mussels, calamari, a half lobster, and king crab. A 30-item tapas menu tantalizes Tuesday through Friday until 5pm, as well as all night on Tues-Thurs, with items around C$10. An all-you-can-eat mussel special is available on Sunday and Monday nights for C$12.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
