This salad is delicious, but it's a bit too heavy for my taste. I would recommend serving it as an appetizer or side dish.

I've made this salad several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great make-ahead dish, too.

I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I actually really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is what really makes it.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt to the dressing.

This salad was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think next time I will try it with less seafood.

I made this salad for dinner last night and it was delicious! The seafood was fresh and tender, and the dressing was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I would highly recommend this recipe.

This salad was a hit at my last party! The calamari, scungili, and shrimp were all cooked perfectly, and the dressing was light and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
