Squid-ink risotto with fresh crab and seafood.
Tip: The black rice is a show-stopper visually and in flavor. Briny, creamy, and elegant—this is fine dining comfort food.

Veracruz-sourced crab prepared with seasonal vegetables and citrus.
Tip: Ask when soft-shell crab season is actively running. Summer months are best for sweetness and availability.

King Crab

Fresh king crab legs served simply with butter and lime.
Tip: Ask if they have the daily fresh catch available — it's often better value than the king crab and equally fresh.
