The Press Gang is one-time private mansion is now a friendly and lively meeting place for the after-work and late-dining crowd, just a couple of blocks up from the waterfront. The paella which is a savory, is a  mixture of saffron rice with sherry and shellfish, sausage and red bell peppers is the best in town. The Grilled salmon with caviar and cream is to die for.Try their special offering, Martin's Drill, a four-course meal for two, which Chef Martin designs especially for you. There's a fine wine cellar and an oyster bar.
