The giant fish hanging in Donald Link's new industrial-chic Warehouse District eatery says it all. This place is all about local and line-caught seafood, most of it cooked on an epic wood fire grill. Chef/partner Ryan Prewitt (last of HerbSaint) delivers intriguing dishes like smoked tuna dip, spicy Asian-flavored capellini with crawfish and chilies, beer-battered fish sticks and one of the best grilled whole redfish you'll ever eat in your life, a beauty flavored with a lemony, herbaceous salsa verde. Whole fish is a specialty, and you can't go wrong with whatever is the special catch of the day. Reserve early and often, this place is hot.
