Tautog's Restaurant Restaurant Review: With the swell of splashy high-rises along the oceanfront, it’s hard to get a whiff of “Old Beach.” But Bill Gambrell and Scott Ferguson believe in preservation and converted a weather-beaten cottage from the 1920s (when this was a fledgling resort area) into Tautog’s, a contemporary seafood restaurant. Reasonably priced sandwiches and entrées entice for their freshness and smart preparations: tuna is marinated in lime, olive oil and zesty red onions; baked mahi is encrusted with potato chips and finished with a roasted red pepper coulis and dill sour cream; sage and Granny Smith apples tart up the tartar sauce that accompanies crab cakes. The wine list is thoughtfully composed and many selections are available by the glass. In warm weather, the porch is a must, while the cozy dining room with its fireplace is fine for a winter’s night as the surf batters the shore a half block away. |
