If you're in the mood for shrimp and grits, Southern-influenced B. Smith's is the spot for you. To start, try the jambalaya, but skip the overly bready fried green tomatoes. The Swamp Thing entrée may not sound pretty, but this mix of mustard-seasoned shrimp, scallops, and crawfish with collards is inspired. Seafood, as well as anything with barbecue sauce, is highly recommended, as are the red beans and rice. Desserts are comforting, slightly dressed-up classics: coconut cake, warm bread pudding, and sweet-potato-pecan pie.
