It's pricey, but really good. This octopus shell is one of the best! But you must like Cilantro. Little cuffs were really good. Lachs Crudo was amazing.

Pricey but really good. This octopus dish is one of the best! You have to like cilantro though. Little neck clams were really good. Salmon crudo was amazing.
