    Food was stellar across the board. King Salmon Crudo, the sauces and sides that you can get with the fish, the calamari were all highlights. Even the chicken thighs were incredible! Drink menu is extensive and great, with a price point for everyone. It doesn’t feel like Clyde’s group, and succeeds in being an awesome, more upscale spot.

    A real find - seafood cooked over charcoal. The food is some of the best I have had and service top notch. A great addition to Union Market. Can’t wait to return.

    This is far and away the best restaurant in Union market even set up against all of the Starrs (intended); if you really enjoy seafood then I would proffer best in the city. The dry aged salmon rounded out one of my best meals to date. This immediately became my neighborhood goto.
