spectacular in its lack of spectacularity. after dining atrockcreek and coming home to write this review, i really hadn't even noticed that there was no salmon or halibut on the menu at all. and that's where the greatness of this new bistro begins. the array of fish available is outstanding from carolina white prawns to alaskan octopus to hawaiian tombo. we had a sampling of oysters on the half shell. oysters don't disappoint but a lack of traditional condiments did. no i really don't want hot sauce with my oysters, just some cocktail sauce, lemon and horseradish. the mignonnette was tasty but boring after the 2nd oyster. we then moved on to 4 small plates (the menu changes with the availability of the seafood), hawaiian hamachi crudo, oil-poached albacore, wild mushroom tartine - all excellent. the 4th dish, the white prawns over heirloom grits was a bit disappointing. the shrimp were overcooked and the grits had an odd mealy texture and frankly didn't taste that great. finally for dessert, we tried the key lime pie and therockcreek s'mores with its ooey, gooey chocolate and caramel with an off and on crunch. both absolutely excellent. i'd definitely dine here often, especially now knowing that i can't fall back on salmon or halibut. i have to branch out intorockcreek.
