Smack Shack · North Loop
Smack Shack grew from a food truck into a broad North Loop seafood restaurant. Lobster rolls remain the signature, joined by oysters, crab, shrimp, boils, and fish preparations in a lively dining room. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine's seafood guide discusses the restaurant's sourcing and its role in making shellfish approachable.
Sea Salt Eatery · Minnehaha
Sea Salt Eatery turns a seasonal park pavilion beside Minnehaha Falls into a counter service seafood destination each spring through fall. Fried fish, oysters, calamari, po'boys, and daily specials suit the picnic table setting. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine's dedicated feature documents the kitchen's oyster oil pan and enduring park rhythm.
