Changes in Latitudes bring fresh face to Port St. John eatery. Review

You can tell that its proprietors really want to make a go of Latitudes Grill and Oyster Bar. What formerly was a pretty dismal exterior is considerably brighter, with a new sign, a good few coats of paint and one of the most congenial and competent cooks in the area, Jamey Thompson. Smart move, hiring Jamey. Anyway, the dining room at the Port St. John eatery is substantially different, with most of the old paneling and paint gone with work clearly ongoing, and a sandwich bar installed. The waterfront part seems to be in the process of rehabilitation in bits, a pretty good way to do it at the time of our visit, which was a rainy one. That’s why you won’t find dock pictures in the photos that accompany this. But Latitudes, like its predecessor in its location, remains a seafood restaurant, and it doesn’t do too badly at delivering it. Its menu shows an admirable array of shell- and other fish in various forms at reasonable prices; tangerine ahi is $20; Mussels Luciano, which features a saffron cream sauce, cost the same. There are burgers, shrimp burgers and mahi BLTs, plus poke bowls and “bombs” served in bread
