Denver may be landlocked, but our ship occasionally comes in — loaded with fresh fish. Yesterday we served up Denver’s five best seafood restaurants.
Says UncleDave8:
I can totally back this list. Refreshing change from most Denver diners’ choices like The Fresh Fish Company, Pappadeaux, Oceanaire and Ocean Prime.
Still, there were quibbles:
When news happens, Westword is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $50,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community. If Westword matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
Says Mike:
New England Style Seafood is much needed. I really really miss Fried Clams Strips and great Clam Chowder. Please make it happen someone!
And then there’s this from Newschaser:
Fried clam “strips” are not real New England seafood … you’d want full belly clams and steamers with necks … strips are garbage deep-water shellfish cut up and breaded commercially, not real clams plucked out of the sand. Think Essex clams. And a can of Moxie.
Have any suggestions for clams — fried, Essex or otherwise? Post them, and any other favorite seafood spots, below, or joint the discussion of best seafood restaurants already under way here.
