Having eaten at nearly every freestanding (not in a hotel) dinner-serving
restaurant in Southwest north of the Anacostia, I cannot really recommend
any. The Market Inn at 2nd and E (I think) is halfway decent for seafood,
as is Phillips Flagship, but I wouldn't pester people to go to either
place (except for the she-crab soup at the Market Inn, if it's as good as
it used to be). El Torito is, well, El Torito. It's on Water Street. 

I thought the food at Jenny's (Chinese) in the Waterside Mall was atrocious.

I agree with the person who recommended Negril for carry-out.
