Yes, we like Coasters too but have not been there since the smoking ban as we were not allowed to smoke outside on the deck, only in a designated non-eating...
My vote goes to Sharkey"s in Venice at the fishing pier. It isn't cheap, but the food is good and the view is "to die for" especially at sunset. Seville ... ...
