1. Casamento’s
For oyster lovers, there’s no better spot. This cash-only joint has been serving fresh oysters and other seafood specialties for a hundred years and they’re certainly worth a visit.

They do close for the summer, so you’ll have to wait until September 12th when they reopen to visit. Trust us, the wait is worth it.
