Despite the fact that they’re closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (the nerve!) Backfin Blue is one of my favorites. Why, you ask? Let me count the reasons: crab cakes, meatloaf, the Mr. Oscar (the day’s fresh catch, expertly prepared), crab and corn chowder, prime rib…I could go on!
Backfin Blue is tucked in a charming old house on Beach Boulevard. Dine outside if you can: there’s better acoustics and you may be treated to a serenade by a crooner next door at the Peninsula Inn.
