    Good value prix fixe meal during New Haven Restaurant Week, with lovely seating outdoors on a sunny autumn day, a great introduction to this relative newcomer to the New Haven restaurant scene. We'll be back!

    Excellent meal and experience. We had a party of 7 celebrating a Birthday. It was restaurant week. We all ordered off of the RW menu. Portions were large for both Appetizers and Entree’s. Everyone enjoyed their meals which included Tuna, Salmon, Short Ribs, Steak, Risotto. The service was attentive and excellent. Overall, we all agreed it was a great night out and we will return. We can see why Jennifer Garner chose this restaurant after dropping of her child at Yale. There are outside tables, bar high top tables and dinning room tables.

    It’s been awhile since I last ate at South Bay, so I was really pleased to return and enjoy an absolutely wonderful lunch. $25 two-course prix fixe is a really good deal. Superb burrata over crispy eggplant and then, the seafood special - branzino, perfectly cooked. I will definitely return again and again!

    Food was delicious and portions generous. We did the brunch special which was an appetizer and entre for $25pp which was a great value for the portions received. Will dine there again when visiting New Haven.

    Mediterranean Scampi had a wonderful flavor. The vibe is very cool in the heart of downtown New Haven. Very solid bottle wine list.

    The food was fine but under-seasoned and skimpy, especially given the relatively high prices. The lobster slider dinner special came with very little actual lobster (2-3 snap pea-sized pieces in each of the three sliders), which means the meal was mostly bread. The vegetables that came with our entrees were overcooked and so was the fish. Overall, the food was certainly not worth the cost.

    Came for a late lunch. The pre fixe menu is a great deal with super high quality food. I got the branzino as my main course and it was great - perfectly salted and a big piece of fish!
