Family Friendly Favorites
A Little Italy institution that does red-sauce Italian through a seafood lens—calamari, clams, mussels, and old-school plates that reward ordering like a regular. Keep it classic, keep it paced, and treat it as a nostalgic seafood-Italian stop rather than a modern, technique-driven fish house.
Must-Try Dishes:
Fried calamari, Clams (in-house preparations), Mussels (classic Italian style)
What makes it special: A long-running Little Italy seafood-Italian institution (since 1972).
