A Kensington seafood spot with fishhooks lined along the walls, where Roger's reservation-night order of mac and cheese, ceviche and a whole market fish was let down only by a slightly bland fish that needed a squeeze of lemon.

“We ordered their mac and cheese and ceviche as starters!”
Made a reservation and was seated right away; mac and cheese and ceviche were solid starters, and the whole market fish was a touch bland on its own but good with a squeeze of lemon and eaten alongside the mac and cheese. Too full for dessert, with plans to return for Sunday oyster specials.

The Haven Pizzeria
Pizza
A dog-friendly Kensington pizza and beer spot Roger found pleasant to hang out at but not worth the premium on the pizza itself; the Cortez pie fared better than the 'New NY.'
