If you don't have reservations already you may already be blocked out

of the better restaurants, I'm sad to say. At this point the best path might be to see what's available on Open Table and Resy, and then come back here for recommendations. The restaurant scene is just nuts during high season. There are some good restaurants on North King where you might be able to get bar seating -- try The Ordinary and Felix. Places without reservations (although more downscale) are Leon's Oyster Shop and Fuel. Edmund's Oast is a microbrewery with decent food, or another microbrewery with a rooftop bar is Revelry. My personal opinion is that Poogan's has gone downhill recently (their chef is out at Seabrook now).

it's pretty rough. I toured the aircraft carrier in August once. No fun.
