Ocean Grill
The Ocean Grill attracts faithful devotees with its simple but rich cooking and its stunning locale, right on the ocean’s edge. Ask for a table along the wall of windows that open onto the sea. Built more than 60 years ago by Waldo Sexton (of Driftwood Resort fame, see above), the restaurant was originally an officers’ club for residents of the nearby naval airbase during World War II. Today, it's a fish specialist, meaning every catch can be prepared Cajun-style, wood grilled, or deep-fried. It also has tasty stone crab claws (in season), and a Cajun rib-eye, featuring a béarnaise sauce with a jolt of heat. Dinners are uniformly good here; the only tacky element of this place is the gift shop.
