Top Best Seafood Restaurants in Columbia

"For some of the freshest seafood and best atmosphere around, try Pearlz Oyster Bar. This rustic restaurant serves up a mix of shellfish and local seafood, and is part of the Sustainable Seafood Initiative. The raw bar offers a range of oyster varieties, including Low country and Gulf oysters, while the rest of the menu consists of all manner of seafood concoctions, including tuna tartar, steamed mussels and oyster sliders."

"Growing up in west Texas, the only time we ever ate seafood was on vacation to the beach. Now that I live on the east coast, I have found a love for raw oysters and fresh seafood more & more. Shane and I both love it and we were so excited to find Pearlz in the heart of our city."

"A throwback to elegant dining with impeccable table service and white linens. If you are looking for a sophisticated Valentine’s Day dinner, you won’t be disappointed with Ruth’s. Sizzling steaks, fresh seafood and a fabulous wine list."

"The signature Ruth's Chris sizzle is in full evidence at this respected chain's Columbia outpost. Notable for prime steaks, upscale decor, elegant but..."
