Great good great service
I've been meaning to try this place! There is limited seating -- 2 small counters with 4 and 5 seats each, and one table with more seating. The seafood was good quality, and correspondingly quite pricey.
We started off strong with some great appetizers. I really liked the yellowtail crudo ($16) -- while it was small, the flavors were excellent. The oysters ($36 for a dozen) were also fresh and sweet. The shrimp cakes were pretty good as well.
