Fresh Seafood Restaurant in St, Augustine?

I'm going to St. Augustine in April...need some good rec's for fresh seafood for three day visit.

No tourist traps. Any broiled octopus in town? Price not a problem.

    O.K. Good seafood and no tourist traps. Here are my recommendations:

    O'Steens
    (Perhaps the best shrimp in town. ZERO ambiance, no reservations, reasonable prices)

    Barnacle Bill's
    (Very good shrimp, reasonable prices, family atmosphere)

    The Reef <http://www.thereefstaugustine.com/ind...>
    The food is very good, and the ocean views are even better. Be sure to arrive before sunset (or for Sunday brunch) for best views. Request a window table when making your reservation.

      I've had great oysters at Hurricane Patty's on the mainland. Also Osteens for shrimp.

        It's a little bit of a drive, but north of St. Augustine, right on the Intercoastal Waterway, is Caps on the Water and it is wonderful --- http://www.capsonthewater.com/. Make sure you get a table outside.....I also recommend Osteens and Saltwater Cowboy.
