A great catch in the heart of Times Square. The bar, located by the entrance, is surrounded by wall-to-wall glass which let's you capture the city life while sipping on a "Blue Fin," a blue drink served in a martini glass made from Absolut Citron, Hipnotiq and a splash of white cranberry juice with a candy fish floating inside. Very yummy! Inside, the restaurant is a two story monument to food, with a winding staircase, sculptured walls that give the effect of waves and a mobile hanging from the ceiling that creates the image of a school of fish floating in mid-air. We headed right for the sushi bar, which was a good choice. The snow crab sushi ($5 each) was excellent, as were the "Crackling Shrimp" ($8.50) and "Sesame Sea Scallop" rolls covered with caviar ($9). Also on the menu, you'll find Atlantic bass served with shrimp and asparagus risotto ($24), Thyme seared wild salmon ($21). If you're not into fish, there's a Porter House steak ($38) and Angus filet mignon ($28). The staff couldn't have been more helpful, without being overbearing. Major credit cards. - Benny Prim
