Unfortunately, no it is not stone crab season, as that runs from October 15-May15th.
In regards to restaurants, the Diplomat is situated in Hollywood and IMO the best food choices will either lie in Fort Lauderdale (north up the beach) or Miami (further down south).
If you are in the mood for meat I would highly suggest Chima on Las Olas (Ft Lauderdale). It's an Argentinian Steakhouse, very good, but pricey, and reservations would be a must. If you are looking for a more casual/fun place hit up Opa (greek) which is just a few blocks from the Hotel and also on A1A.
Oh, also, right across the street from the Diplomat property is Nikki Marina. It's pricey but has some great seafood and you can eat sitting out by the water.
