Formerly known as Crudo, Bar Pesce is the re-branded and re-engineered new restaurant from chef Cullen Campbell. Like it's predecessor, Bar Pesce offers a refined menu where sushi sensibility meets traditional Italian flavors, this time around with a greater emphasis on seafood. Highlights from the menu include raw fish crudos like the swordfish belly zapped with Leche de Tigre, shallot and white olive oil. Looking for a truly compelling dish? If you place your order 72 hours ahead of time, the kitchen prepares a bahn mi style roasted pig head for $100 that begs to be shared with a group of friends.
