From one extreme to the other. What's inbetween?
I'm sure there are some restaurants with good food and moderate prices that might not have the ambience of Old Man, Madame J and the like.
Of course I have to decide on one "fancy" place for dinner but I'd also like to try some places that have good food without spending a fortune.
Any suggestions? Many thanks!

Hello, you can try Moby Dick located in the mall by the Hi rise area. The fish & chips were only $12.00. Grouper and fries. Every thing else was priced reasonably. Stay away from the snapper, really gamey.

Try Plaza Cafe at Seaport Mall.

Ate at Mobey Dick's in May and it was awful!! Bad expierence with the food, staff etc.. One person in our party ordered a 40.00 dollar steak medium rare and it came to us like shoe leather was horrible and they didn't want to take it back, then after a few words they did and took forever for another one and then they ignored us and also people sitting near us. Very un=professional. would not recommend it.
