"While it isn’t technically within Houston city limits, Pier 6 in San Leon is frequented by plenty of Houstonians aching for dinner (and lunch or brunch) with a view. The waterfront restaurant offers stunning Gulf views from its vast dining room and sprawling outdoor patio and bar, and an abundance of seafood delights to pair with Insta-worthy frozen cocktails. The oysters are the star of the show here, with its Hot Blooded version served broiled with zesty garlic, Sriracha, and habanero butter. Diners can also enjoy a standout fried seafood platter, lobster rolls, and pecan-crusted redfish. Unwind out on the swing chairs that overlook the pier." - Brittany Britto Garley

"Strolling down a dock to a roof deck seafood restaurant isn’t as common as you might think in Boston, but Charlestown’s Pier 6 delivers on the dream. Bask in the sun on a summer Friday with a dozen oysters, a mezze plate, and the people from your secret work Slack channel. Or, come by for drinks after dinner for a lively singles scene that’s more professional than undergrad." - tanya edwards
"Charlestown’s Pier 6 offers full panoramic views of downtown Boston and plenty of deck space to enjoy a warm afternoon or an evening on the water. If you’re getting dinner, the raw bar brings oysters, scallop ceviche, and shrimp cocktails to the table, while bigger dishes like steak frites and fish and chips make it a meal. Post dinner, this is a good hang for the views and people watching." - Tanya Edwards
