A Hidden Coastal Gem in Richmond!
I had the absolute delight of visiting Shoreline Seafood Market recently with a dear friend, and I can’t stop thinking about it! From the moment we walked in, we were transported to a charming, northwest coastal haven—fresh, bright, and full of character.
The food? Exquisite. Every bite was a celebration of color, texture, and flavor—clearly prepared with care and top-quality ingredients. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing something to take home, the selection is superb. The refrigerated cabinets were brimming with beautiful prepared items, and the wine pairings were a thoughtful, elegant touch.
The staff were incredibly warm, helpful, and clearly passionate about what they do. It felt like being welcomed into a friend’s seaside kitchen, where hospitality and great taste go hand in hand.

Read moreI am a HUGE fan of this wonderful place!! The lunches there are always outstanding....the seafood is always fresh and the menu is consistently great with very tasty items. I especially love the grilled fish sandwich they have daily along with the local greens salad they make. The service that the wait staff offer is another wonderful part of the experience....very attentive and friendly. I go there often and have never had a bad meal or ever anything less than great service. That is saying a lot. I have been to the 10 course dinner they offer one time and cannot say enough good about that experience as well. On top of all that the prepared food selection is over the top. I often buy some of their prepared meals after my lunch and the quality of those offerings are phenomenal. The atmosphere and decor are also a plus. I cannot recommend this very special...
