You might not expect a great seafood restaurant in the mountains of a landlocked state, but that’s exactly what you’ll find at the Carlin, which is located inside a luxury inn on Main Street. An epic night here starts with a tower of oysters, shrimp, crab, ceviche, and pickled mussels, and only gets better the more seafood you tack on. Double down on bivalves with an order of wood-fired oysters topped with compound butter, breadcrumbs, and lemon, or dip toasty batons of bread into a bowl of manila clams and chorizo. Finish off your night with an espresso martini, or head downstairs to their cocktail tavern for a nightcap.
