ALABAMA: Southwood Kitchen in Daphne

"I've been twice and enjoyed the food. The oysters are good, served on a hubcap, and we liked that our server gave us information on where they were from. The crab dip was delicious as well as the soup. I have not tried any salads but recommend the scallop small plate. For entrees, we've had the filet medallions, steak frites, and shrimp and grits. They obviously do steak well and both dishes were cooked perfectly. I liked the shrimp and grits but am not a fan of green peppers so might not order that again. We had a chocolate torte the first time and the smores brownie the second time. I love chocolate, but these both could have used vanilla ice cream to offset the super sweetness," the Yelp user Edna L wrote.

ALASKA: The Salmon Spot in Talkeetna

"Our Insight tour director was absolutely right to recommend The Salmon Spot for our lunch. We shared a salmon burger with cheese & salmon chowder. Different than others we've had, but good. We almost wanted a second salmon burger," the Yelp user Denise Y wrote.
