"This seafood restaurant—from the people who run Claud downstairs—goes way beyond the standard crudos and into fish-you'll-never-forget territory. The short menu ranges from raw bar dishes to whole lobsters, and at least one of which tries to escape from its tank every night. Start with Penny’s version of the seafood tower, an icebox that comes with a luxurious selection of clams, oysters, and some killer red shrimp. Then get the squid stuffed with chard and tuna, and confit oysters. If you don't have a reservation (most of the 31-seat counter is saved for walk-ins), it’s best to arrive around their 5pm opening time. Otherwise, you'll probably have to wait." - will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, kenny yang, neha talreja
