Cork, Drydock, Euphemia Hays, Waterfront-kid friendly?
Dry dock will be fine...he can get whatever fish of the day cooked to his liking, not always deepfried. There are always kids there and you might get lucky and see the dolphins.
We have taken our kids (7 and 9) to both the Cork and the Bottle shop. They have good palates and enjoyed Cork, but the room is quite small and it is a little stuffy (if he gets bored easily, he will get bored here). The kids enjoyed Bottle shop more, we sat outside(entertaining for them) and they will allow you order from either menu.
We also took them to Derek's downtown and they were more than welcoming. It's not waterfront, but worth a look, even if it's just for lunch. If your kid is real adventurous, he will enjoy this place.
On St Armand's we ate at Crab and Fin which is pricey but good seafood. Just don't let them stick you in that horrible back room(which I think they tend to do when they see you coming with kids).
Our kids also really enjoyed Da Ru Ma out by Target on Fruitville Rd. It's Japanese steakhouse stuff a la Benihana, but they have a sushi bar and their tempura and gyoza were pretty good.
Blue Dolphin in St Armands is also worth a mention for breakfast...nice pancakes and waffles and it's always really busy.
Enjoy...the beach is beautiful down there.I can't wait to get back.
