All in all pleasant but not my type of food. I am an ovo-lacto vegetarian with vegan tendencies. I got a warm recommendation for... this place but had to realize that pescatarians call themselves vegetarians nowadays. Looking at the menu and customers aroundme, I could tell that this might be the place to have casual seafood in Bham. Unfortunately, the pickings for me were slim anddid not come with the umami that the name promised. The best was an Avocado taco in a salad leaf, the tempura brussel sproutswere undercooked and drowned in batter, and the tempura fried potatoes were limp and unseasoned. The highlight was a cedarsmoked Old Fashioned that at first looked like a gimmick, was then overly smokey but morphed after a few minutes into a palatetickler. If you eat dairy and fish, you will most likely make this a regular stop. (I believe the only vegan choice is Edamame.) Read more
