Straight-ahead seafood, fresh and simply prepared, is the mantra at the aptly named, no-nonsense, high-energy Fish Shack, downtown on Granville Street. Regulars go for The Fisherman’s Catch, a cornucopian haul of Dungeness and snow crab, mussels, prawns and more, landed tableside in a net. The giant blackboard beneath a soaring ceiling proclaims a wide variety of fish ’n’ chips, from halibut, salmon and lingcod to red snapper, oysters and prawns, while Sundays pay homage to crustaceans with $19.95 whole lobster and crab specials.—Tim Pawsey
