Naked Fish

The NAKED FISH restaurant caught my eye as we were shopping in the Faneuil Hall area. I love seafood, and we had already tried the more local joints for chowder and fish-and-chips. Naked Fish looked a little different, as it was advertised as “elegant seafood and Cuban cocktails.” That’s a combination I wasn’t about to miss.

The decor inside was simple and stylish. I was glad we had dressed up a little and made the effort. It was pretty packed, but we had made reservations earlier that day. Our table was in the back, towards the kitchen, which is not usually a preferred spot, but on this chilly evening it suited us fine.

The waitress was fun and friendly, and being a local, helped us plan our after-hours clubbing. The menu was great, with every type of fish you could desire, and the cocktails really did live up to their reputation. To start, I had to try the infamous Latin Love, which, according to the menu, had been voted “America’s most sensual cocktail by Penthouse magazine.” I wasn’t too sure how much I was going to trust the “taste” of Penthouse magazine in anything, but I have to say that it was damn good. I suggest having the Latin Love last rather than first, though, as the sweetness was more fitting as a dessert, and at $7, it was about the same price as dessert. However, all the cocktails were about the same price. The Caiprinha and Mojito were wonderful.

As for the food, it was expensive but delicious. To start, we shared a chilled soup of avocado and crab meat. It just sounded so wonderful that we wanted to have some and indeed it was ($7). Then I had rare tuna with a peppercorn coating, which gave it a wonderful kick. This plus two sides was $18.
Karl had scallops and mushroom in a bowl of rum cream sauce--yummy (also $18).

We wanted to do something different for our anniversary dinner this year. We always go to very fancy restaurants and eat so much that we feel bloated by the end of the evening.

We looked at the Naked Fish website (www.nakedfish.com) and decided that this would be more fun. They specialize in Cuban cocktails, and their seafood is served either "naked" or "not-so-naked." I'm not into gourmet food, but really enjoyed my coconut-encrusted Haddock with orange and rum cream sauce. The mashed sweet potatoes with bananas are delicious. This was a great place to celebrate!
