    We sat at the counter and loved watching the skills of the fish cooks. Fantastic meal-scallop crudo-buttermilk, cherries, spice? Wow. Lobster gnocchi pasta dish-also fabulous. Then cod with a beautiful and delicate curry broth. And a delicious white wine by the glass recommended by our pro server. What a perfect way to start the weekend This restaurant is becoming my go-to destination when I want to be sure the food and service are completely enjoyable.
