Traditional Tidewater seafood takes center stage at this nautical-inspired Merchants Square restaurant. Start with local oysters, fried green tomatoes, or she-crab soup and move on to all the seafood you can handle. The highlights are the crabcakes and fresh fish, but for those not in a seafood mood, there are meat, poultry, or vegetarian options. Sandwiches also feature seafood at lunch, when a few of the entrees are also available. The al fresco Taphouse Grill, which is open April to October, offers more casual versions of the restaurant's entrees along with sandwiches and salads and music Friday and Saturday evenings.
