Our shard Venetian mussels were delicious, the first pasta course was not only masterly crafted, but sizewise almost to share. The main course, a whole grilled fish, just amazing. Desserts, and had tried a few are very yummy. My favorite was the ricotta cake. Don't forget an assortment of some very local after dinner drinks.

The location is quite pretty with outdoors tables right next to the port and even extending on a small pier, losing only a few points for being perhaps too close to a parking lot. Service is good with a helpful and friendly front of house staff, which unfortunately also seems a little over extended over the many tables. The main attraction is the seafood menu, though a non-seafood alternative is also available. Dishes are well-made, but tend to somewhat vary in quality: in my dining experience, a somewhat unremarkable pasta dish was followed by the creative and wonderfully tasty fake stuffed mussel, which may well be the star of the menu; while a vegetarian diner was offered a three-course dinner of off-menu items, none of which was particularly memorable (though very well priced). Overall a good experience, worth a stop for those looking for a seafood dinner with a great view.
