Mitchell's Fish Market


You're gonna need a bigger boat. (R.I.P., Roy Scheider.)
I managed to finish off three-quarters of my sharkfin pie ($7.95); what remained was big as my fist. This chain restaurant's most celebrated dessert is named for its shape, as you'd imagine, not its ingredients: butter fudge ice cream, honey-roasted peanuts, fudge, peanut butter, an Oreo cookie crust, and whipped cream. Don't try to land this monster without plenty of help.
Previously: an oyster sampler, one each of Blue Point, Malpeque, Fisher Island, and Fanny Bay ($8.50), was fine; pan-roasted mussels ($9.95) and broiled cod ($17.95) were adequate; garlic broiled shrimp ($18.95) was timid with the garlic. Scallion mashed potatoes, which accompanied both entrees, were short on scallions and could have been hotter, too. Service needs to be more attentive.
