Sea Island Shrimp House

Fifty years! That’s how long Sea Island has been turning out informal seafood lunches and dinners (everything from oysters on the half shell to whitefish with a chipotle crust). New this year is a delightful Greek salad with lettuce, tomatoes, feta cheese, and olives, topped with a lightly grilled salmon filet. The rest of the menu is a daunting variety of choices that includes shrimp, oysters, crab, all kinds of fish, most of which can be grilled, broiled, fried—whatever the diner wants. Stand in line to order, head for your table, then pick up your freshly cooked meal when your number is called. (For those who must, there are beef and chicken items available also.) With fifty years of practice, it is not surprising that they get it right.
