The Scene
Co-owners Hugo Rawley and Steven Lombardo named the restaurant after Rawley and his grandfather, whose nickname was Bruce ''Frog'' Hay. The nautical interior makes waves with boisterous patrons who flock here from their plush, Gold Coast apartments.

The Food
Choice selections on the seafood-heavy menu are updated daily, but ask what's in stock, as specials tend to sell out quickly. A good backup is halibut, mildly flavored with shiitake mushrooms, shallots and white wine. For an appetizer, try seared peppercorn tuna or shrimp de Jonghe. Crab cakes are king as an appetizer or for your meal--the crispy-on-the-outside, fluffy fritter is flavorful while not too fishy. Filet mignon is dominated by crusted black pepper--too pungent but made tolerable by a creamy bearnaise sauce. End your meal with muddy bottom pie, a delicious, rich mound of chocolate and vanilla ice cream coated with Oreo cookies, macadamia nuts and chocolate chips.
