Fodor's Review:

Arrive here just as local music lovers are folding their napkins and heading off for the 8 PM curtain at the nearby opera house and you'll snag a table and some perfectly fresh seafood. Much of the fish -- Pacific bluenose, yellowfin tuna, swordfish -- is simply grilled and served with a choice of sauces from beurre blanc to tomato salsa. A pile of crisp, thin Belgian frites rides alongside the grilled offerings. Among desserts, the crème brûlée is legendary. Brass coat hooks, white tablecloths, a long bar, and a mix of banquettes and tables define the traditional look of this seafood stronghold.

terrific seafood and very good service. We arrived just after the crush for the performance and were treated to a quiet evening. The petrale sole was delicious as was the tuna; salads also top notch.
