Lavinia's

[Orion]

We stopped in Lavinias a few nights ago, arriving around 6pm. It was very quiet and wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Got the clam chowder and think it is one of the top three I've ever had, with a very nice smoked-bacon flavor. I followed that with the fish tacos and they were delicious! They are also the cheapest thing on the menu. They use blackened fish and have a LOT of flavor, and certainly not fishy. They are very spicy, so I'd recommend getting the hot spicy mayo on side and not on the taco so you can dip it to the level you can stand (did I say it was hot-spicy?). I will be getting those again. My wife had the salmon and really liked it. The somewhat high cost of the salmon averaged out the whole bill to make it overall a fair transaction, IMHO. I will be back.
