Plainer of decor than its offshoot Sea Garden of Bellevue, for which the owners built a new space, the original focuses on the fresh seafood. Choose a live crab, visit with it briefly at your table, and then await its transformation into the exquisite but messy Crab with Black Bean Sauce. Lobsters, scallops and shrimp get equally careful attention here. Service can be slow, but the great food, great prices and late hours make this place a treasure.
