Good place with a hip setting, giving the place a hip, NYC watering hole vibe. We ordered the cauliflower appetizer (good but extremely oily), baked salmon (good taste but a little bit dry and tough, seemingly overcooked) and the grilled squid (tastes like the usual Filipino inihaw na pusit), among others. A bit on the pricey side given small portions. Didn’t try the oysters since it’s a general recommendation that one should only eat raw oysters that were farmed in countries with cold climates just to be safe from bacteria.

Don't waste your time.  Nothing great about the pricey food, and service is poor.   Went here yesterday for lunch - 4 of the 5 dishes we ordered were out.   They even ran out of beer....??!?!?!   The waiter reasons out that they had an event the previous night.  Duh... not my issue.   One of the dishes we ordered was pending for 30 minutes so we had to cancel.    30 minutes for a dish - and we were the only ones in the restaurant!Manager does not even bother to talk to us.   He sends us free dessert, probably thinking "that should do it".  I politely send it back telling the waitress "thank you, but we don't need it.  Just give us the check."

Good ambience, with prompt service and of course, good seafood cuisine. Kinda bit pricey for a seafood restaurant but it's understandable, because, it's a seafood and bar restaurant by Todd English. We tried Crab Head Gratin, which I highly recommend as a starter. Will definitely go back to this place!
