- Legal Sea Foods. Legal Sea Foods opened its first restaurant in 1968 and has since added over 20 more restaurants up and down the East Coast (including a surprising number of airport locations).
- Kura Sushi. Kura Sushi is kind of an outlier on this list. No fish and chips, crawfish boils, or surf and turf here; instead, it's all about sushi. Nigiri, rolls, and hand rolls wrapped either in seaweed or soy paper are all available, with the fun part being that you grab them off a conveyor belt as they roll by.
- Eddie V's Prime Seafood. Eddie V's may sound like a Philly cheesesteak stand or Jersey Shore pizza joint, but this chain is anything but casual. Like the second half of its name, the emphasis is on "prime" seafood at a premium price.
