It was superb, but at the end of the day...it's fish and definitely was not worth $400. (it was something like $14-$15 per 100 grams of weight)
Sides were, of course, ala carte. Thankfully we ordered a bunch of them or I would have left hungry!
menu shows whole fish/etc run $14>$22 per 100 grams / 3 ounces.
orata is $15. ($5/ounce)
$400 would mean 5 lbs.
