Flounder's Chowder & Ale House
Fresh fish cooked ever which way, accompanied by live reggae: that’s the lure at Flounder’s Chowder House, on the boardwalk overlooking the Santa Rosa Sound. Their best offerings include the Maine lobster and chargrilled tuna, grouper, and mahimahi. If you’re lucky, a big smoker grill outside will be producing more fish and exceptional ribs. Burgers, tacos, salads, sushi, and sandwiches are offered all day, and late into the evening. The dining room is cool and not what you’d expect from a fish house; its bookshelves, confessional booth walls straight from a New Orleans church, and stained-glass windows imported from a convent contribute to a cozy, Nantucket-in-the-winter kind of feel. But when the weather’s warm, you’ll definitely want to be outdoors.
