input requested ... out of towners asked me for some picks.

i'm not the guy to ask, considering that i deem hooters haute cuisine, and I hardly hop over the bridge any more.

fancy shmancy is fine ... acquaintance is looking to take his sweetie out for nice din-din.

thx.

Scales and shells (I think that's the name). Right up the street from the old S.W.E.

Moorings restaurant is good and fancy enough. If you want the cats behind , go to the Inn at Castle Hill , stoip at the bank first though! :)

for just plain good food at reasonable prices , Salas has always been great.

thanks for the info Mike. I'll pass it on.

the most i ever spent on a meal in RI was at the Route 1 Wendy's in Westerly.

I was kidnapped at rodpoint and dragged to the Nordic Lodge (c-town) and had six lobsters crammed down my throat but didn't have to pay for that meal. :hihi:

Not strickly sea food, but the West Deck is an excellent place, but not cheap.

restaurant bouchard on lower thames is killer, jacket required and $$$$, but worth it. On the other end Anthonys seafood good and cheap. Cafe zelda lower thames usally has a decent amount of seafood on menu also, mid -$$, big john always puts out some good stuff there.
