Spring: A Symphony of Flavors

As spring arrives, we celebrate the vibrant flavors of the ocean. This season, we feature fresh Pacific halibut, known for its mild taste and firm texture. Perfectly paired with a zesty lemon sauce, it's a dish that captures the essence of spring.

Another spring favorite is the succulent soft-shell crab. Lightly battered and fried to perfection, it offers a crunchy exterior with a juicy interior. It's a must-try for seafood lovers looking for something unique.

Summer brings an abundance of seafood delights, and at The Red Snapper, we make the most of it. Our menu highlights include the sweet and tender Alaskan king crab. Steamed and served with drawn butter, it’s an indulgence you won’t want to miss.

This season also features the versatile tuna, perfect for both sashimi and seared preparations. Known for its rich flavor, our chefs create dishes that highlight its natural taste with minimal seasoning.

Fall: Rich and Flavorful

As the leaves turn, our seafood offerings take on a richer profile. The renowned Chesapeake Bay oysters are at their prime. Whether enjoyed raw or grilled, their briny sweetness is a fall favorite.

Additionally, our menu features the robust monkfish, often referred to as "the poor man's lobster." Its dense, lobster-like texture makes it a perfect addition to hearty stews and dishes.
