Default Summer only restaurants doesn't mean inferior quality

Any place that’s really good will be able to sustain itself all year long.
Good enough for the tourists but not up to the standards of those who live here year round?

Sorry BR, but you are way off base here. There are summer clam shacks/restaurants all over that open up to meet summer demand in tourist/beach areas and then close for the season after Labor Day. The Tamarack has ALWAYs been a seasonal restaurant. I attribute the quality of the food far more to management than to its operating season.

In my experience some of the WORST food comes from year-round restaurants in the off season when they have little staff and few customers. How old did you say that fish is again?
