"Live music on the weekends is the time to go to Old Causeway (1201 East Bay Ave.) — named for the bridge it sits next to — but it gets packed, so go early for dinner and then head to the bar. Oysters and beef are coupled here in wood-fired steaks and burgers topped with fried bivalves, but the rest of the extensive menu is filled with American classics and lots of seafood. It’s always a good time, which the owners are well aware of — if diners drink too much, they can always hop on the restaurant-provided shuttle home." - Stefanie Tuder
