Long before Julia Roberts made a movie about pizza, the town of Mystic, Connecticut, was known for its rich history and picturesque coastal views. A sea-lover's dream, this historic and quaint town provides a vivid picture of 19th-century coastal life and features a maritime museum and a host of historic vessels. Though the original Mystic Pizza is a tourist attraction, those who have lived in or visited Mystic will tell you the town's true treasure is seafood.
Seamen's Inne Restaurant & Pub
Part of Mystic Seaport's Museum of America and the Sea, the 19th-century Seamen's Inn is one of the most popular spots for dining or drinking after a busy day of sightseeing. Fare at the inn is traditional, and two other eateries are affiliated with the historical site: the casual, kid-friendly Galley Restaurant and Schaefer's Spotter Tavern, named for the pub in Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick."

Captain Daniel Packer Inne
The Captain Daniel Packer Inne is a quintessential New England restaurant. The 250-year old Mystic River establishment features both a classic basement pub and a homey colonial restaurant. The pub menu is expansive, ranging from the trendy (seared tuna) to the traditional (baked cod). East Coast classics abound on both levels, including oysters on the half shell, clams, mussels and scallops.

The Flood Tide
Formal flourishes such as salads prepared table-side and attentive service are the hallmark of this Mystic restaurant. It is located at the Inn at Mystic, and guests can gaze down on the picturesque Mystic Harbor and enjoy a stroll through the inn's extensive English gardens. In 2009, "Connecticut" Magazine readers chose the Flood Tide as the best continental restaurant in New London County. The traditional menu includes filets and rack of lamb, and, of course, plenty of fish, including Stonington scallops and Maine lobster.

Kitchen Little
Tiny in size but big on quaintness, Kitchen Little is Mystic's favorite breakfast spot. There's almost always a wait---and guests write their name on a board to get a table. Picnic tables in the backyard provide a nice river view. The staff recommends the Portuguese Fisherman: spicy hot scrambled eggs, chourico, linguica, peppers and onions, zesty sauce and a Portuguese English muffin. At lunch, be sure to try the clear broth clam chowder with onions and potatoes.
