You might not be expecting to find delicious fresh seafood right here in America’s heartland of Oklahoma. But Sallisaw, OK will certainly please you if you’re looking for seafood restaurants! Here are our recommendations for a few delicious places to grab a fresh seafood dinner right here in town.
1. Hiro Hiro
When you want to treat yourself to seafood, nothing beats some hand-rolled sushi. Here in Sallislaw, the place to go to get your fill of delicious sushi is Hiro Hiro, at 211 North Oak Street.
Their signature dish is the Hiro Hiro Roll, with tempura shrimp, eel, and crab meat rolled with avocado. Other seafood sushi sets that you can’t go wrong with include the Dragon Roll (roast eel, tempura shrimp, and cucumber) and Louisianna Roll (crawfish, crab meat, and avocado). And their exotic specialties won’t break the bank either; all roll sets go for under $10.
2. Roma Italian Restaurant
If your ideal seafood consists of a plate of frutti di mare from the Mediterranean Sea, look no further than Roma Italian Restaurant. Along with fresh Italian seafood, this homey Italian restaurant at 1600 West Tatham Avenue offers enough style to impress a first date or treat a loved one to a special occasion.
Flip the menu over to find their extensive seafood menu, featuring both locally-inspired specialties and classic Italian dishes with catch from the Meditteranean. You can’t leave without trying their linguini tutto mari, a fresh collection of the finest fresh Italian shrimp, mussels, scallops, and calamari cooked with linguini pasta in a delicious garlic and white wine sauce.
3. El Toro Mexican Restaurant
There’s no doubt that some of the world’s best seafood comes straight out of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, and there’s no better spot in Sallisaw to get fresh tilapia and camarones than El Toro. Trust us when we say this, drive over to the restaurant at 2610 East Cherokee Avenue, flip to the seafood section on page 3 of their menu, make your pick, and you won’t be disappointed.
We can recommend trying their coctel de camarones (shrimp cocktail with a mix of fresh Mexican vegetables), mojarra frita (fried tilapia with french fries, Mexican salad, and Spanish rice), and arroz del mar (a rice dish with shrimp, sea scallop, crab, melted Mexican cheese, mushrooms, peppers, and vegetables).
If you’re a real fan of seafood, you should probably take a weekend and drive down to nearby New Orleans or Houston and try some seafood straight from the sea. For that, you’re going to need a quality car that’s ready for a long road trip, and there is no better model on the market for road trippers than the GMC Yukon AT4.
