What to order

  • Whatever is local — The single best rule. Gulf shrimp on the Gulf, Dungeness on the Pacific Northwest coast, lobster in New England, catfish in the Mississippi delta.
  • Raw bar, if the turnover supports it — Oysters should be shucked to order and listed by name and origin. A generic “oysters” listing is a bad sign.
  • Whole grilled fish — Better value and better eating than fillets almost everywhere, and the best test of the kitchen.
  • Inland: go for the preparations that suit frozen — Fried, cured, smoked, or in a stew. Excellent fried catfish a thousand miles from the sea is far more likely than excellent crudo.

How to spot a good one

  • A short menu that changes — Fish is seasonal and supply-dependent. A laminated menu with twenty species available all year is serving frozen product, which is not automatically bad but is not what you came for.
  • Staff who know the boat or the supplier — At a good place this is a normal conversation. Vagueness in answer to a direct question is informative.
  • Whole fish on the menu — Hard to fake and hard to hold. A kitchen offering whole roasted or grilled fish is confident in what it is buying.
