 The new Il Gambero near First and Blanchard is an Italian restaurant
 specializing in seafood (as its name implies).  We tried their soup of the
 day and a penne pasta for a light supper the other day, and they were quite
 good.  They also have a nice wine list and a server named David is the
 person to ask about wine.  Tell him I sent you.

 while I adore Luigi, his restaurant has disappointed a lot of people.  For
 Italian try 1) Il Terrazzo, 2) al Boccalino 3) il Bistro, not necessarily
 in that order.  For seafood, try 1) Etta's, or 2) Shuckers (for oysters);
 but EVERY restaurant in Seattle serves good seafood.

 A recent trip to Il Bistro yielded some of the most outstanding gnocchi
 ever.  Melt-in-your-mouth texture, served with a silky-satiny garlic-
 infused tomato sauce.  Outstanding.
