We went on a Thursday night--I had family in from out of town and went back and forth about going there because the reviews are all over the map. We had a great table in a back corner--the restaurant was busy but not jammed. We started with medley of oysters--all of which were outstanding. My family members who have traveled all over the world--indicated that they were some of the best. They definitely reminded you of the ocean--by their taste and smell. Main dishes included risootto, the spaghetti with sturgeon and the linguine with cuttlefish. All three dishes were excellent--the fish and seafood in all its forms tasted very fresh. it was so nice to have seafood in Phoenix where you can taste it rather than it being swallowed by the taste of whatever it came with.
I will definitely come back--lots of other things on the menu I want to try.
the restaurant is very modern looking. they do have vespas around the raw bar to sit on--a little kitchy--and I am not sure how comfortable--but certainly a conversation starter.
