I would hope that it's because most of it is caught locally & is fresh vs. seafood that's farmed and then shipped frozen from Lord knows where. I hadn't noticed the prices being unreasonable; guess it depends on where you dine. Capt. Anderson's is a little pricey, but excellent, so we save that for special occasions. Otherwise, Schooners, Scampy's (especially for lunch) and Montego Bay, just to name a few, have always offered a good meal at a decent price.
Where did you eat that you thought it was too expensive?
