I don't know why this place has such bad reviews -- I loved it. And I'm from San Francisco and Los Angeles, so it's not like I'm used to different standards.\n\nSERVICE:\nOur waiter was great. He was always courteous, always checked on us, and joked around with our group, too. I have absolutely zero complaints about him.\n\nDRINKS:\nWe had a bottle of a dry New Zealand white. Can't go wrong with that. Went with the food perfectly, and the $50 price tag wasn't overpriced for the quality. (They had plenty of options in the $20-$30 range, as well.)\n\nFOOD:\nLoved the oysters. Very fresh and tasty, and come with everything you might want on the side. The steamed mussels and fried calamari were also excellent appetizers. By the way, THE APPETIZERS ARE BIG. Great to split for 2 people.\nAs for the entree, the seafood Cioppino was excellent. Great mix of seafood in a delicious sauce. (Also very large portion -- great to split).
