Calamari steaks are usually known as "Grande Calamari" (or sometimes, "Humboldt Squid"). It is the squid body cut into segments and flattened. Many cooks will limit the natural curling by diagonal cuts on the outside of the body.

Very very good stuff, you’ll be doing yourself a huge favor by trying it.

Edit: along the lines of seafood, also strongly recommend skate wing.
