Oddly enough, coming from NYC, the supposed restaurant capital of the world....

The best steak I ever had was at a place in Williamsburg, VA (or near there) called "The Peddlar". I met the owner and told him personally.

If you're ever heading down that way, check it out.

I'm afraid the fanciest restaurant I ever ate in was Olive Garden. I hate to dress up and much prefer casual dining.

Jean-Georges Vonrichten restaurants. His signature Jean-Georges in the Trump International Hotel and Tower in NYC is amazing. Voted #2 restaurant in the city (behind his French rival Daniel Boulad). Ruby Foo's in NYC and Vegas has great Pan Asian dishes.

That "dreadful Pensacola area" has some mighty good seafood; "there" dining can be quite good if you are into fresh shrimp and want to take a break from snooty-foodie oneupsmanship.
I really liked McGuire's. Maybe it's not fine dining but we are talking about best restaurants, not necessarily fancypants ones.

No need to get so defensive. My opinion is not based on "fancypants" restaurants. I have never seen so much fried food, including seafood in my life.

Fried is not my favorite either, but it's simply not *all* that way.
The fresh oysters are to die for.
And McGuire's really does have some creative choices, it's not all pub grub.
