I agree and the lack of decent fish markets around the Boston area in what's supposed to be one of the seafood capitals of the world is puzzling. When I go to California I am amazed at the offerings by many marinas along the shore and even in markets. As far as BBQ, if you want some great ribs and knowing you can get in and sit and enjoy it, go to Uncle Pete's in East Boston. Good stuff, plenty of seating unlike Blue Ribbon and without East Coast Grill prices. I like both these places, but Uncle Pete's fits what I'm looking for in BBQ just right.

They have changed. The seafood at ECG has gotten even better, but now, the Q is just for show. Kenny Jakes used to cook the Q, and he is no longer there. The Q subsidiary, Jake and Earl's, is now a seperate restaurant in Waltham. Go to East coast Grill for great Carribean influenced seafood. If you want Q, go to Blue Ribbon in West Newton.
