This lively seafood restaurant in the Oak Hill area delivers on fresh coastal fare. Order this to go: Chicken-and-sausage gumbo makes for a rich, satisfying starter, as does the Shore D’Ouevre, a fried green tomato with blue crab and creamy rémoulade. A hands-on meal worth spreading out at your dining room table (with plenty of napkins on hand) is the Sha-Bang Shrimp, which arrives as a shrimp boil in a bag, complete with sausage, corn on the cob, potatoes, mussels, and ciabatta for dipping in the spicy sauce. Pro tip: The drive home makes raw oysters a tricky to-go item, but we loved the wood-grilled oysters with chorizo-lime butter.
