Rank 1. Little Em’s Oyster Bar
Seafood
Cupcake-pink walls and white trim set the tone at this breezy seafood bar in the King William District, where a tree-shaded patio deck effectively doubles the place on a warm afternoon. The menu revolves around a rotating oyster selection and moves into fish tacos, lobster rolls, and the kind of bright, light seafood that pairs well with a glass of rosé and nowhere particular to be.

Rank 2. Signature Restaurant
Seafood
The menu at this resort seafood restaurant runs long enough that the staff are trained to talk you off the ledge, and they do it graciously. Octopus and venison share billing with the catch, which tells you the kitchen isn't playing a strict concept. The room has the warm, unhurried feel of a place where no one is in a hurry to turn the table, and the wine list matches the menu's ambition.
