No- but if you want to give up the price/value qualification I can recommend Farallon. : 2. Is the Greens worth a visit? I'm not a vegetarian, new age or "hippy" inclined. I thought Greens was awesome. Beautiful food that tastes wonderful. Great wine list to boot. eth

For seafood, would advise Rose Pistola. Wondrous fish cooked in a wood burning oven. As to Greens, it is great. The best part is the wine list. Very comprehensive and cheap. The waiters are great as well Alain
FYI - Greens has only set (full) menu - with a few choices on Saturday night - cannot order a la carte - good but a lot of food Alain A. wrote: >For seafood, would advise Rose Pistola.
