   Absolutely amazing dining experience!!! The grilled octopus is by far the best appetizer, our favorite and only restaurant that has it down to a science! The flavor is outstanding, temperature is always just right! I am a loyal customer and always order the house entree “PESCATORE”…you can never go wrong with a dish named after a restaurant….this dish NEVER disappoints. The crab gravy is beyond delicious, shrimp, clams and mussels are always done just right. We also ordered the salmon special which was over a lobster broccoli risotto, from the very first taste it kept getting even more flavorful….This is a must try. Double espressos (with our BYO Sambuca) and their homemade tiramisu was a perfect ending to an amazing dining experience. Aside from the food, the staff went over & beyond….with the change of ownership/management, you definitely feel a positive change in the climate….Asad is so very personable, welcomes us when he sees us and makes us feel right at home. The female server (Armenian, just forgot her name) has a great personality, goes over and beyond and truly cares about the customers. Evan…what an incredible young man….Truly loves the food industry, kind, personable and very engaging! Thank you so very much, Asad & staff, and the amazing chefs/cooks in the kitchen, we never get to meet you, but truly appreciate your talent and thank you for such an amazing dining experience. And to the new ownership, we love the changes to the decor, lighting and overall ambience….Many thanks and all the best and great success. Thank you!

   Service was wonderful - thank you Sophia. Food was delicious. Ambience was very good and sound level very good for this group (60-70). Only issue was that there was no notice that NY Eve menu was prefix. Price was fair ($75) only if you plan to eat 3 courses but that is more than most of us can eat at a sitting. I enjoyed the evening with friends but would prefer to have been prepared for the cost of prefix.

   The Prix Fixe menu was incredible. They were great to accommodate a vegetarian with a pasta dish. The seafood combo was one of the best meals I’ve had a the restaurant. I had 6 of the 7 fishes included in my dinner. They really do a nice job of making every occasion special.

   The menu was limited and then normally fantastic stuff clams were overcooked on the outside and mushy on the inside. Disappointing.

   Low-key neighborhood BYOB that's worth a visit. Fine service and a nice menu -- nothing revolutionary, but Italian standards done well.

   For beginners, the northeast was assaulted by an Alberta clipper and the restaurant did not have a well functioning entry exposing diners seated near the door to blasts of freezing air whenever patrons entered. We were seated near the entrance and asked to be moved away from the door; the restaurant should rearrange their seating when confronted with uncomfortable temperatures. After settling comfortably into a table in the back room we ordered our meals. My husband had the veal and I had the striped bass. Both were good. This is a BYOB restaurant, so if you enjoy alcoholic beverages remember to bring them with you!

   Amazing dining experience, ambience is relaxing, newly decorated and looks great. Sofia was our server, great personality and very attentive. Hassan is very friendly and treats his staff very well, a whole different climate. GREAT STAFF♥️The Pescatore and Fettuccine Bolognese were exceptional, finished off our meal with double espressos (BYOB, Sambuca) and it was a perfect ending to a delicious meal. Highly recommend Pescatore, we will be back with friends and family over the holidays. Many thanks for such a great night!

    Please provide options for people who do not eat shellfish. Everything was delicious.
