First off, they are open more hours than are showing in Yelp. Yelp is showing closed, I am writing review from restaurant.
Ok...I'm giving this one 5 stars, because it is like taking a walk into Top Chef where the main ingredient is Cod, and I'm putting a condition on the 5 stars (like most/all of my 5 stars), there are specific dishes to go for. These people know Cod. I have had cod is more ways in one lunch than I have ever had in this one restaurant bar, and that deserves 5 stars for originality. I've samples cod dishes I've never seen before anywhere.
I'm going to make my specific recommendations below, along with a wine recommendation for purchasing a great take away bottle of wine (they sell a great bottle of wine, that can be bought at the restaurant, for 6 euros that is supposedly only sold here...you kidding me, I spend more driving to the market in Los Angeles)? I'm including a picture of the label.
This place is completely worth the visit for lunch or dinner...their menu has an insane number of cod dishes, all different ways, from raw to cooked, from simple to complicated, to specialities you will find no where else. This is the first time I giving a 5 star to restaurant for pure originality on a simple ingredient, cod. For sure I will never find another place that has so many varieties.
By the way, they have something on their menu called foie gras. It has consistency of late, but slightly harder. I think it might be cold foie of goose, if it is pate, it is the best in the world. It is worth it if you are in group. Please contact me if you figure out what it is, but it is good.
I had raw cod here cod carpaccio. I've been to so many sushi restaurants, I cannot count. Never seen raw cod carpaccio, they have it here. I've never, anywhere seen it on a menu anywhere. 5 stars for originality. read more
