Where to Try Fresh Seafood and Fish in Riga: Our Inside Perspective

At Doorsea, we understand very well what people are looking for when they search for “seafood Riga,” “fish restaurant in Riga,” or “seafood restaurant Riga.”
They want the honest taste of the sea, fresh fish, and dishes prepared without unnecessary decoration.

That is why we want to share how we approach seafood, which dishes our guests choose most often, and why our restaurant in Riga’s quiet center has become a place people return to again and again.
First of all, we want to emphasize that Doorsea has two kitchens: a hot kitchen focused on grilled seafood, and a cold Japanese kitchen, offering fresh fish dishes, sushi, sashimi, nigiri, and rolls. This means everyone will find seafood prepared in a style they enjoy.

Our Principle: The Taste of the Sea Must Be Authentic

At Doorsea, seafood is not an addition to the menu, it is the foundation of it.
We choose products that speak for themselves: clean, fresh, and with the right texture.

We follow several simple rules:

we buy fish and seafood only from trusted suppliers; our primary supply of seafood and Kamchatka crab comes from the Port of Hamburg in Germany
we prepare dishes in a way that preserves their natural taste
we avoid heavy sauces
we respect seasonality
we put quality above everything

Because of this philosophy, guests often say that our dishes have a clean, honest, marine flavor.

Which Seafood Guests Most Often Choose at Doorsea

We constantly communicate with our guests and clearly see that the demand for high-quality seafood in Riga continues to grow. Below are the dishes most frequently ordered at our restaurant.

1. Oysters

Fresh, chilled, and served to keep their flavor pure. We offer Gillardeau No.2 oysters — one of the most highly regarded oyster varieties.

2. Shrimp

Tender, rich, with a light aroma from grilling or frying. Our menu includes South African shrimp and giant shrimp from Senegal.

3. Octopus

We prepare octopus so that it remains soft and delicate. Many guests try octopus for the first time with us.

4. Fish on the Grill

Dorado, sea bass, and salmon are timeless classics. We also serve exotic fish such as parrotfish, red snapper, madai, and hamachi.

5. Japanese Scallop

Delicate scallops can be enjoyed grilled, as carpaccio, or as tartare.

6. Kamchatka Crab

Kamchatka crab is one of the most valuable seafood delicacies, known for its sweet, clean flavor and firm, juicy texture. It requires almost no complicated preparation to reveal its natural taste.
We serve Kamchatka crab in pure clean form, crab sashimi, crab nigiri, crab and avocado salad, and several types of crab rolls.

We serve fish and seafood in their natural beauty, without unnecessary additions.

Why Choose a Seafood Restaurant

People often ask: “What makes a seafood restaurant different from a regular one?”
The answer is simple: specialization.

A restaurant that works with seafood every day knows the product better and can offer quality that ordinary restaurants simply cannot match.
We work so that guests always feel this difference.
