Fodor's Review:

Anchoring a tucked-away corner on Richmond Street, this organic Italian seafood restaurant has stepped out of tradition and moved into nouveau Italian. Ignore the distraction of the color-changing walls, lighted by fluorescent neon, and scope out the menu: the chefs here prefer the simplicity of grilling and poaching seafood and meat dishes rather than dousing them in seasonings, which presents a simple but delicious option among its red-sauce-heavy neighbors. Go for a plate of tagliatelle tossed with fresh tomatoes, slivers of basil, and shaved Parmesan. And don't miss the mixed grill -- a selection of fresh-caught fish prepared with a touch of seasoning.
