Michael Scelfo's seafood-forward restaurant near Harvard Square is one of Cambridge's most consistently excellent spots, with a menu that balances creative cooking with genuine comfort. The wood-roasted oysters and any of the pasta dishes are must-tries, and the cocktail list is inventive. The room is handsome and lively but can get loud.
