Steaks

(From February 2012)

Chef Molly McCook’s preference for the produce of local farmers translates into well-articulated, always interesting seasonal menus. Squash was on our radar, with a roasted-squash-and-ricotta tart served with arugula, a cheesy squash fondue topped with buttery bread crumbs, and young, tender spears of fried okra. We still managed to consume every last bite of cornmeal-crusted redfish with crawfish étouffée. Beer & wine.

Seafood /
Steaks

  

(From May 2011) Forget your swimsuit—“Hottub” is merely the nickname of owner Danny McGuire. You can, however, warm yourself up with a gratis cup of well-seasoned beans and some hush puppies while you peruse the menu. We decided to test the waters with the chicken-fried steak and a combo platter of fried shimp and oysters; the steak was fork tender and not at all greasy, while the seafood was lightly battered and perfectly cooked. Sides range far and wide, from creamy mashed potatoes to bright-green sugar snap peas. Bar.
