Seafood is a pretty standard dish in coastal states but thankfully you can find delicious seafood anywhere in the country. With so many seafood restaurants to choose from, it's hard to know where to start. Fortunately, Missouri has plenty of tasty restaurants serving up incredible and fresh dishes that will make seafood lover happy.
According to a list compiled by 24/7 Wall St., the best seafood restaurant in Missouri is 801 Fish in Clayton, just outside of St. Louis. Here's what the site says sets it apart:
"This chic upscale St. Louis restaurant is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion (think wedding anniversary or promotion), with Russian osetra and American hackleback caviar on the raw bar menu and $50 entrees. Expect everything to be impeccably on point, from the cocktails to the perfectly seared tuna and scallops to the creamy and decadent lobster tail risotto."
This is how 24/7 Wall St. determined which seafood restaurants reigned supreme:
"To determine the best seafood restaurant in every state, 24/7 Tempo consulted lists, ratings, and reviews from websites including Guide Michelin, Eat This Not That, Food Network, Gayot, Eater, and Time Out, as well as numerous local and regional sites. Sushi bars and informal seafood shacks ... were omitted from the final results, though some of the restaurants listed may include sushi on their menu."
