The seafood is great, yeah yeah yeah, you've heard that. It's also wild expensive, but it's certainly worth it to me, I love dining in strange locales and soaking up some history.
What you really want to see here is the architecture, and the service. The waiters will impress your girlfriend (or boyfriend) with the snappiness and devotion to the craft. It's like someone... Taught them how to do their job, imagine that!
I always have a vision of a rotund man just sitting at the bar for hours on end after ingesting half of the Atlantic seaboard and just... Smoking five cigars. Big ones. And I am sitting in the back, watching the elegant and pungent smoke curl over that little arch. Good times.
