Funky house, renovated with love. Superb seafoods, from the mussels terrine to the mahi mahi perfectly seared. Bones jutting out from pork and lamb chops add to the old-world setting.

Fine service cures mediocre menu. Opt for simple dishes for real flavors. Above all, stop at the wine shop for fine wines, and no corkage.

Step down and arrive in South America, complete with rustic chairs. Zesty ceviche rewards lunch or dinner.
