The Borg have apparently landed their cube. Are they assimilating salt lakeians yet?

That seems to be the consensus winner. I think that is where I'll go.

If you want to overpay wildly for poor to mediocre food, hit Market Street. The food at a place like McGrath's or Red Lobster is as good if not better, but you'll pay less. Bottom line - seafood in utah sucks, so don't pay a lot for it.

I like crab, shrimp, and lobster enough that even when its "not good", its still pretty good.

So like SJF said, go where its cheaper.

Joes crabshack has the best appetizer i have ever had ...... The Crab stuffed shrimp. Mmmm
 
I'm sure if I cared to eat the filterers of land's fecal matter then I'd be able to find plenty of good grub in Utah. Thing is, I don't often care for eating concentrated human or dog ****, so I don't spend much time searching it out.

If you think about it, everything filters fecal matter. The filtration process is where fecal matter comes from.


That said, Market Street is overpriced and mediocre. They have decent oysters, but that is only because oysters are fairly resilient and live quite a long time at low (near freezing) temps, so they can still be "fresh" even a week after harvesting. If you like oysters, market street is the best you will find likely, with a good variety. If you are looking for other seafood, then Red Lobster or some other chain is your best bet in Utah.
 
I played it safe at Market Street last night. Mainly got just crab and calm chowder, but I thought that was good at least. Decent atmosphere too. I'd give it a 6.5 or 7/10 and that's with the influence of a bad date baked in too. It might have given a solid 8 if I had been there with somebody I actually liked.
 
Glad you sortof liked it.

Still nothing worth talking about in Utah when it comes to seafood, sadly.

I actually think their clam chowder is pretty decent, so you made a good choice imo.
 
The Bayou isn't bad. For being land locked, the seafood here in Utah isn't that bad. Most places fly in fish at least twice a week.
 
Living on the Gulf Coast for most of my life makes it pretty much impossible for me to enjoy seafood anywhere that isn't able to get affordable fresh daily catch on the regular.
