In fact, Da Pesca, as [the seafood section] called, expands one’s sense of how revelatory seafood can be. Polignano’s skate dish is one of the best anywhere. Rolled into a cylinder resembling a giant scallop, the seared skate is crisp on top and tender inside. In a brown butter sauce with capers, sautéed grapes and crumbled hazelnuts, it’s positively eye rolling, yet hardly an outlier on this exceptional menu, which includes a few far-from-token meat options.
