Briefly

Smithereens, reminiscent of New England dining, originally struggled with inconsistent dishes but has improved significantly over the past year. Chef Nick Tamburo infuses creativity into a seafood-heavy menu, exemplified by standout creations like amberjack belly with sea-lettuce vinaigrette. While there were initial misses such as a bean stew with uni and a poorly executed lobster roll, the restaurant has now found its footing, particularly as seasonal fish dishes gain prominence in the summer months. A focus on raw dishes is encouraged for optimal dining pleasure.
