SEAFOOD IN DA NANG – TOP 7 MUST-TRY DISHES & TRUSTED SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS

Top 7 Must-Try Seafood Dishes in Da Nang

Da Nang cuisine captivates visitors with its seafood dishes, which are delicately prepared yet retain the natural sweetness of the sea.

1. Steamed Chip Chip with Lemongrass

This is a “must-try” street seafood in Da Nang – tasty and affordable. Chip chip (small clams) are sweeter than regular clams and usually steamed with lemongrass and green chili. Served hot with salt, pepper, and lime, the dish offers an irresistible sweet and spicy balance. You can find it at almost any seaside restaurant.

2. Crab with Tamarind Sauce

A signature dish that wins every seafood lover’s heart. The crab is stir-fried with a thick tamarind sauce that blends sweet, sour, salty, and spicy flavors perfectly. The bright red color and aroma are irresistible – make sure to order some bread to dip into the delicious sauce!

3. Grilled Squid with Satay

Fresh squid is marinated with spicy satay sauce and grilled over charcoal, releasing an enticing aroma. The result is a slightly chewy, naturally sweet squid combined with the rich, spicy flavor of satay – a true coastal favorite.

4. Grilled Scallops with Scallion Oil

A must-try for grill lovers. Scallops are rich in nutrients and taste amazing when grilled with scallion oil and roasted peanuts. The sweetness of the scallop meat, the aroma of scallion, and the nuttiness of peanuts create a perfect appetizer.

5. Various Kinds of Snails

Da Nang boasts a wide variety of snails (such as oc hut, oc da, oc huong…). The snails are cleaned, then stir-fried with coconut milk, lemongrass, and chili until the flavors soak in. The savory-sweet sauce combined with the chewy, juicy snail meat makes this dish addictive.

6. Da Nang Seafood Hotpot

An ideal choice for dinner, especially for groups. The steaming hotpot features a medley of fresh seafood – shrimp, squid, fish, and clams – in a flavorful broth seasoned with chili, tomato, ginger, lemongrass, and starfruit, creating a perfectly balanced sour and spicy taste.

7. Oyster Porridge

A nourishing and unique dish that’s a great alternative to meat porridge. The oysters are sautéed with spices and cooked with a mix of rice and mung beans. The dish is topped with chopped scallions and fried shallots for extra flavor and aroma.
