Waterfront Seafood Market is a family owned seafood restaurant and market in West Des Moines, Iowa. Waterfront Seafood Market has been in business for more than 21 years, bringing Des Moines and the central Iowa area quality fish and seafood. Inside the restaurant is an oyster bar, sushi bar, casual dining restaurant and seafood market. Most of the fish and seafood Waterfront Seafood sells is bought directly on the docks, where fishermen bring in their catch. By avoiding the use of brokers, Waterfront Seafood is able to buy the freshest fish and seafood. Its fish and seafood arrives via air freight and is loaded directly into the market s specially-built cooler at the airport to keep the catch as cold as when it left the docks.
