Thousands of miles of shoreline across America allows many states, even those not bordering an ocean, to have ample access to fresh seafood at the drop of a hat and that would please any seafood lover, pescatarian or really any foodie who wants to feel like their meal was the catch of the day.
According to a list compiled by 24/7 Tempo, the best seafood restaurant in Missouri is 801 Fish. You don't have to be right along the coast to find incredible fresh and tasty seafood, and this St. Louis-area eatery proves that. 801 Fish is located at 172 Carondelet Plaza in Clayton.
Here's what the site had to say about Missouri's "best seafood restaurant":
"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 creamery and decadent lobster tail risotto."
To determine its list, 24/7 Tempo looked at lists, ratings and reviews from sites like Guide Michelin as well as local and regional sites. The list includes eateries that run the gamut from ultra-casual seafood shacks to establishments that require a dress code to dine in.
