Editorial Review
This place, decorated in a kind of high-style grunge, is part of a chain. It looks plain enough from the street, but the interior is surprising: a warehouse-size open space with wrought metal chandeliers and walls that look like designer cement.
The name of the restaurant suggests it serves light, plain cooking. That's true, but only in part. In addition to grilled fish -- 10 kinds plus lobster are listed -- there are sauteed shrimp, scallops, monkfish and chicken, and appetizers of clams or mussels steamed in wine or sauteed with spicy, garlicky tomato sauce. Any of those can be served over pasta as an entree, or that tomato sauce can accompany your grilled fish.
