Diners turn up at both locations for the assorted fruits de mer: Maine lobster, snow crab legs, sea urchin in the shell and messy (but so worth it) peel 'n eat shrimp. If oysters are calling, grab a seat at the raw bar for front and center views. Order a plate ($18 for a half dozen, $36 for a dozen) or, better yet, come on Mondays for half-priced oysters. Another option: Head to the Hollywood location for boozy shooters ($9) layered with sake, lemon, sriracha and furikake. If caviar is more your thing, lap it up with golden trout ($40 for an ounce, $20 for a half ounce), hackleback ($54 for an ounce, $27 for a half ounce), white sturgeon ($110 for an ounce, $55 for a half ounce). If you're feeling extra fancy, head to Santa Monica for Siberian osetra ($120 for an ounce, $60 for a half ounce).
