“A quote from my boyfriend after our appetizers: "ill never be a mother, but i imagine this feeling is the equivalent of holding your child for the first time" My new fav spot, how this place isn't packed out is actually beyond me because it was easily one of the best meals I've ever had in New York and I've eaten a lottttt. Everything I could hope for from an NYC seafood restaurant comes alive here. Ambience is so nice lighting is perfect doesn't get too noisy but still feels alive, service is excellent, cozy but cool. The food is just outstanding, I literally recommend everything like truly. Each dish was like wow I've never had something like that before and I need it again and again. In fact, I went two days in a row because I just had to get some appetizers again and try some more mains. I'm actually obsessed. I would be here much more often if I lived somewhat closer, but I will with no hesitation make the trek from Manhattan anytime I start craving it. I honestly recommend every single dish that I have posted in this review (it's also every single dish that I've ordered in my times coming here) , but I think for me (i really love raw seafood) I can't go here without ordering the wild shrimp appetizer and the lobster tostada. The lobster tostada is one of the craziest things I've ever had I don't know how they made it taste like that and the textures (im salivating as i write) and they give you so much lobster i was swooning. Not that everything else isn't also perfection because it all really is in their own ways, but as a lobster lover this just tickled me. Love their drink menu, non alcoholic list is pretty limited but what they do offer is tasty, for low ABV they have a lot of options featuring sherry, sweet wines, and amaros etc Dessert was great im forgetting what it is called atm, but alongside the creamy looking one is their italian ice and flavors rotate.”

“This is our second time coming back to this restaurant. It’s a small cozy spot where I love sitting by the bar to see the action. The food was still amazing. It’s our first time trying the violet hour though. We should have totally done that the first time. $45 PP - we can choose 3 dishes each. It was a tasing menu where dishes were supposed to come in half portion. It’s definitely bigger than half portion, we feel it’s almost like 2/3 of a real portion. The 2 of us with 6 dishes to share - we were full! Great value! Will definitely do this again if we come back between 5-6. One star deducted to the service was because it seems we didn’t have a dedicated server. No one told us about violet hour nor special of the day x 2. We had to keep asking about it. Imagine if we didn’t overhead about the violet hour from the table next to us, we’d have totally missed it. So does the special of the day”

“The lighting is not photo friendly, so don't judge the dishes by my pics. The food was excellent. Don't skip the anchovies or the iberico steaklette. Cocktails were just as good and they even served me something off menu that turned out to be my favorite drink of the night. Excellent find in the neighborhood.”

“Incredible meal, no- experience. We got the chefs counter and were greeted by Winnie. She was helpful with an amazing drink recommendation. Then came the scallop tacos which I hear are only available on Friday/Saturday and Sunday if you’re feeling lucky (they run out)! The stars of the show were the seafood sausage and the squid. Can’t wait to go back!”

“The food was excellent. Despite the portion being small, every dish we ordered was delicious and well executed. The moment I arrived at the restaurant I was immediately struck with the elegant aesthetic and the ambience. Giving just four stars because they only have high tops at both communal table and counter unless you sit outdoors. Sitting through the whole dinner was not ideal for elders. Understandably they are trying to maximize the space it’s just a bit unfortunate.”
