A 1984 Jupiter seafood landmark on the water near the Inlet dining strip.

Old-school Jupiter that hasn't lost a step since 1984, right on the water near the Inlet. The fish is hand-cut on premises and the chowders, batters and stocks are made daily, which is why locals keep coming back for the famous clam chowder, fish and chips, and the fried baskets. Ask about the Plate of the Day — often a yuca-crusted yellowtail snapper. Cold happy-hour beer, generous portions, and a porch that still feels like the real Florida. Easy with kids, easy with a crowd, and a fair mid-$$ check.
