Fodor's Choice
This inviting neighborhood restaurant, with picnic tables and string lights setting an inviting scene in the yard, focuses on seafood with Louisiana Creole and Southern twists (the owners lived in New Orleans), creating dishes like seafood gumbo and fried green tomatoes with rémoulade. The atmosphere is lively, the service is friendly, and there's a full bar to quench your thirst.
