Street & Co.

A pioneering establishment on now-bustling Wharf Street, Dana Street's intimate, brick-walled bistro specializes in seafood. You pass the open kitchen as you're seated, and then watch talented chefs somehow perform their magic in a tiny space. The fish is as fresh as can be (the docks are close by), and cooked just right. Diners sit at copper-topped tables, designed so waiters can deliver steaming skillets directly from the stovetop. Looking for lobster? Try it grilled and served over linguine in a butter-garlic sauce. Other good choices include tuna, fresh mussels, or a grilled piece of whatever's come in (swordfish, perhaps) -- the catch of the day is often a highlight. This place often fills up early, so reservations are strongly recommended, though some tables are reserved for walk-ins; it can't hurt to check if you're in the neighborhood. During summer, outdoor seating is available at a few precious tables on the alley.
