About Salt Traders Coastal Cooking

A seafood-forward Austin restaurant that leans fully into its coastal identity, with a raw bar built around Gulf oysters, tuna crudo, nigiri, and nightly chalkboard fish specials based on the day’s catch. The sourcing stays intentional and sustainability-focused throughout, while weekend oyster runs have turned the place into a standing ritual for regulars. Recommended: Wild Gulf Oysters, Smoked Fish Dip, 512 Cocktail
