Frommer's Recommended

This member of a small local chain sits right on the beach in the heart of the hotel district. It has an open-air rooftop bar, as well as a large dining room enclosed by big glass windows. There are fine water views from picnic tables equipped with rolls of paper towels and buckets of Saltine crackers, the better with which to eat the blue, Alaskan, snow, and stone crabs that are the big draws here. The crustaceans fall into the moderate price category or higher, but most other main courses, such as fried fish or shrimp, are inexpensive -- and they aren't overcooked or overbreaded. This is a very good place to feed the family.
