People love seafood, and they don’t have to live along a coast to catch a good meal.
That’s why Eat This, Not That! sought the best seafood restaurant in every state. The food content hub shared its findings earlier this year, including “hole-in-the-wall locations,” “fine dining fare” and anything in between.
They did it with a little help from customers:
“This is a list of the best seafood restaurants in every state, according to Yelp. All of the restaurants on this list are in the ‘seafood’ category on Yelp. The ‘best’ rating is determined by both the number of reviews and star ratings for each restaurant.”
So, which seafood restaurant is the best one in Illinois?
Lowcountry Lakeview.
Here’s what Eat This, Not That! says about the Chicago-based eatery (also noting that the soft shell crab with jalapeños is a menu staple, along with “beignets and deep-fried Oreos for dessert”):
“Bringing a taste of the Big Easy to the Windy City, this unassuming seafood spot has patrons begging for more.”
Lowcountry Lakeview is located at 3343 N Clark St.
