Landlocked state? Who cares! Montauk sports an unbelievable selection of fresh seafood and a classic wine list, making this Lionshead eatery the perfect spot for lovers of ocean fare.

Plum's own Jeniece Pettitt has this to say about Vail's hidden gem: "Osaki’s is by far the best sushi in the Vail Valley.  It is this little tiny restaurant that is tucked away behind all those galleries and such across from the Sonnenalp.  You definitely want to make reservations for this restaurant because it is always packed and it literally only seats about 30 people.  It is quite pricey, but worth the splurge."

Located just across the Covered Bridge in the heart of Vail Village, Russell's serves up an outstanding selection of classic steak and seafood dishes. Try their house specialty, the Steak Diane.

Vail's only "raw bar" serves an amazing array of seafood including the freshest oysters and crack-and-peel shrimp, and a wide range of American delicacies infused with classic European and Asian sensibilities.

Located in The Chateau at Beaver Creek, Splendido offers a unparalleled fine dining experience with a menu of seafood, game and local delicacies  designed by talented Executive Chef David Walford.
