"This over 60-year-old restaurant is a classic, featuring fried fish of all stripes, steamed seafood, and clams options including chowders, littlenecks, and cherrystones. Though there are a handful of seafood restaurants selling the same type of fried fish on City Island (yes, there are buses that go between it and the mainland), Johnny’s Reef has long been the locals’ pick for its great waterfront views at the tip of the island and no-frills set-up. Get the fried calamari ($15) and a pina colada to start. Cash only." - Shivani Vora
