North Dakota is the most landlocked state in the country. The geographical center of the entire continent lies within its borders, in fact. Needless to say, seafood isn't exactly a super popular food here. Being so far from the coasts, it's no wonder there are virtually no seafood markets in the state - except for one. This seafood market and restaurant in North Dakota has fresh fish flown in multiple times a week and operates as the only one of its kind in the state. If you're looking for a taste of the ocean on the prairie, this is where you'll find it:
Deep Blue Seafood is a seafood market and restaurant in Fargo, North Dakota. You won't find another seafood market like this one anywhere else in the state.
Fresh, never-frozen seafood is flown in from the coasts twice a week, offering North Dakotans the freshest seafood in the most land-locked state.
Everything from salmon to shrimp, crab, catfish, and even swordfish is available throughout the year.
If the enticing cases of food leave you hungry and you just can't wait long enough to bring it home and cook it yourself, you can have it cooked hot and fresh right there for you at the on-site restaurant.
Get a classic like fish and chips or even grilled shark or alligator.
Oysters and clams are available, too, as well as other favorites like calamari.
If you love seafood, then Deep Blue Seafood will be your new seafood heaven. They bring the deliciousness of the oceans right to good old North Dakota.
