East End outside of the Watterson, but not afraid to travel for good grub

Or Seviche? Yeah, they have a few non-fish dishes, but it's 90 percent seafood, and scrupulously chosen for sustainability, too. You've been to Seviche, haven't you, Mark? I'd put it up against the best seafood restaurants anywhere.

I had hoped Mitchell's would improve when Landry's bought them, but IMHO it hasn't happened yet.

Seviche is very good but again it's not really a seafood restaurant. As far as just seafood goes my feelings are about the same as they are for bonefish. Every fish dish they have is made into something else such as tacos, cigars or whatever.Steve Eslinger wrote:
I guess we spent too much time on Hilton Head and other places along the Atlantic coast as well the Gulf Coast when he lived in South Carolina enjoying seafood restaurants that didn't make you think you were at Red Lobster. .
