There are a number of restaurants down by the waterfront near Arena
Stage. I've tried most of them, since I live in that neighborhood.
IMHO none of them are really that great, but they are for the most
part ok. I don't remember prices, I don't think any of them were more
than $20 for an entee, with the possible exeption of Le Rivage.
Jenny's Chinese (in Waterside Mall) - I've never been too crazy
about this one; there's better Chinese places over in Chinatown,
which isn't that far away.
The Gangplank - seafood, nice atmosphere, ok food. I eat at
the Gangplank more frequently than any of the others in this list,
which says something, I guess.
Hogates - never ate here (well, once for coffee).
Phillips - overrated seafood place. I've never liked any of the
Phillips restaurants very much.
Le Rivage - nice french place, may be > 20$ per entree. I think
they had some sort of pre-theater special, though.
El Toritos - not my style, I don't like mexican, especially mexican
chains. Your milage may vary.
H. R. Ribsters (I may have the initials confused) - I wasn't very
impressed with this place; I don't plan on going back. The beef
ribs had lots of fat.
