    I have been a fan of Carlucci's Waterfront for some years now, but I must say that the Meal for the Feast of the Seven Fishes was the best we have had there. I don't know if there is a new chef or what, but it seemed as if the whole meal was elevated a step. The marinated Seafood salad was superb, and baby octopus was superlative.( I ordered two appetizers of the baby octopus to take home!) Our Server, Laurie, was exemplary, as was the team of busboys(?) scurrying to replace water, butter, napkins, etc. Even the cannoli was better, with small chunks of chocolate and not overly sweet like so many. We were VERY happy with our Christmas Eve there!!!
