Critic rating:
From its marina perch, Scrimshaw delivers a summery view and, all seasons, New American cooking. The North Fork eatery excels with pan-roasted striped bass accented with a raspberry vinaigrette, pork-shank confit, duck confit spring rolls, soup- and dim sum-style dumplings, a savory New England-style seafood chowder, bracing gazpacho and desserts including warm chocolate cake, Key lime pie and lemon creme brulee.
