After properly cooking a lobster, its once-brown exoskeleton turns bright red, letting chefs know that it's both ready to serve and profoundly embarrassed for showing up without pants. Make a meal of deliciously mortified seafood with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of steak, seafood, and drinks at Oceana Seafood, Steakhouse & Bar.

Just a few steps from the riverbanks of the Bow and the greeny confines of Eau Claire Park, Oceana Seafood, Steakhouse & Bar hosts diners mooning over menus filled with net-fulls of fresh fish and steaks prepared with AAA Sterling Silver Alberta beef. Guests can begin by filling up on 1.25 pounds of hearty Alaskan king crab legs steamed to perfection and served with hot-drawn butter (market price). The marinated octopus appetizer ($14) runs the flavour gamut at an eight-legged pace, and the aroma of a 2-pound steamed Nova Scotia lobster ($65) can cause diners to stop short at the seventh bottle of beer on the wall. Patrons can also cast hungry eyes over a succulent selection of filet mignon (8 oz., $38) and new york strip (10 oz., $65), or enjoy the best of both worlds with a 10-ounce filet mignon chaperoned by garlic prawns ($46). Those with noodles on the brain can also choose to dive into one of five pasta plates such as the Atlantic salmon linguine in a herbed lobster bisque sauce ($26).

Among casually elegant confines, guests dine by wood-burning fireplaces at white table-clothed tables or in curved, high-backed booths under a glowing litany of warm lights. Oceana's lounge conveniently allows patrons to relax with a fine beverage of choice while working out the final details of how to propose marriage to a favourite Elvis impersonator.
