I'm striking out finding a place for dinner tonight in Beaumont TX. Trying to avoid Cajun (just came from New Orleans) and barbecue (heading to Austin). I am hoping to find some good, basic Texas seafood - non-chain. Port Arthur is a little far to drive, but willing to drive 15 miles or so.
Thanks, and happy trails to all...

I was going to suggest Sartin's but the website says closed on Monday.

The only other thing I've heard of over that way, but haven't tried, is Dippity's in Lumberton for a burger.

Good, fresh seafood at the Schooner. I had the fried shrimp and scallops plate. The scallops were definitely fresh and outstanding.Looking forward to your report.

GLad you had a good experience at the Schooner - it can be pretty iffy. Pappadeaux, though it's a chain, has the best seafood, IMHO. Sartins was devestated by the hurricane, they are opening up another location, but I can't remember where it is right at the moment. Excellent Vietmanese at L&T on College and Thai on E. Lucas.
