Where will you be staying, the oceanfront? VB Town Center?
Wherever you are, suggest you eat dinner at restaurants that are close to avoid rush hour(s) traffic.
My general "all around" restaurant is No Frill Grill. They have seafood, but they aren't a seafood restaurant. (My favorite meal is the grilled tuna salad, and I normally ask for my tuna to be "lightly seared.") It's on Laskin Road.
One seafood restaurant that's gotten a lot of great press over the years is the Coastal Grill. One year it came in #1 in the "Platinum Plate Awards." I took some friends from out of town there, and thought it was very good. It didn't "knock my socks off," so I can't say they are the best seafood restaurant in the area.
Probably my favorite restaurant in the area is Le Yaca, but it does French cuisine. I've heard the original restaurant in Williamsburg is even better.
There are a lot of pretty darn good restaurants in the area.
