You might enjoy AJ's as it has a nice atmosphere and generally very good seafood. See the menu below. I have not been for a couple of years, but enjoyed the crab imperial and the fried soft shells. It's a higher dining standard than you usually find in Chincoteague restaurants. http://www.chincoteague.com/rest/AJS/index.html

I don't think the grill is going to be open on Friday, though. The mail I got said: "The grill will be open this Wednesday the 20th and Thursday the 21st at 11:45 a.m. until everything is gone (approximately 1:15 p.m.). For pre-orders call 202-293-7191 - PREORDERS WILL BE TAKEN UNTIL NOON."

I love rumaki. It's hardly ever served anymore! Rumaki Recipe

Here is a strange thing I like: Campbell's Chicken w/Stars soup, mixed with water & milk & butter and thickened with instant mashed potatoes. The first time my husband found me making this he just stood there staring into the saucepan with a confused look on his face. I used to eat it quite a lot when I lived alone, but now, not so much. Or: Campbell's cream of potato mixed with broken up meatloaf pieces, and maybe some peas. I really love almost all kinds of Campbell's soup, even the "wonton" one. I also enjoy potted meat, but CANNOT abide Vienna sausages.

Thanks!

By the way, next door to Bill's is an ice cream parlor (can't recall the name right now, maybe Murray's or Meyer's or something?) that has some interesting flavors like licorice (black ice cream!), cinnamon, and Almond Joy.

I would recommend Bill's on Main Street also for decent seafood, but again this is country cooking, not gourmet at all. The fried fish sandwish is excellent, and the oyster "stew" (really just oysters poached in milk) is simple and good, although last time we had it, we needed to add some salt. They also have a wonderful yet very simple crab dip: just some delicious fresh sweet crab meat topped with cheddar cheese and run under the broiler (it comes with tortilla chips). I think it is the lack of gourmet restaurants and also pretension that gives Chincoteague its special charm, and keep it from getting completely overrun by tourists from DC. And the monster mosquitoes probably scare people away too.
