"Once a Pier 47 coffee shop that catered to Wharf workers, in its 55 years in business Scoma’s has transformed into one of the city’s greatest classic restaurants, with a menu of reliable favorites made with freshly-caught local seafood. The “lazy man’s” cioppino begins with Al and Joe Scoma’s family recipe broth, a tomato base that’s packed with crab, shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels, seasonal fish, and calamari — so much, in fact, that it’s barely soup at all." - Paolo Bicchieri, Eater Staff
