"This is a safe place where Midwestern parents can find common ground with South Florida parents over scallops a la plancha. The food is really good and also really approachable—it’s oysters, gnocchi, and giant crab cakes. The portions are generous and the prices are very reasonable for Brickell. It’s also not too loud, and those green chairs are pretty darn comfortable. This is the kind of fairly-priced check all dads live to fight over (and write the tip amount in cursive—which they claim no one knows how to do anymore). " - virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
