Sterling, VA is an amazing town with a diverse and lively food scene. As the state of Virginia is set on the Atlantic coast, the area around Sterling gets some unbelievably fresh seafood, and with so many internationally-trained chefs bringing a taste of their home cuisines with them, the town now boasts some of the best seafood restaurants on the Eastern Seaboard: and we’ve compiled this list of some of our favorites.
The Seafood Lover of Sterling
When it comes to diversity, nowhere in town does it quite like The Seafood Lover of Sterling. At its core, it is a Cajun-style seafood restaurant serving up big buckets of different shellfish that can be either boiled or fried, and which are served with a choice of sides, seasonings, and sauces. But when you look deeper, you begin to see the international influence shine through.
This is because The Seafood Lover of Sterling also boasts an incredible selection of Thai seafood dishes such as Tom Yam – a spicy and sour soup served with fresh fish and seafood – and squid noodle soup. These are also served with a variety of exotic sides, including the infamously spicy and pungent Lao-style papaya salad.

Covering dishes from the US all the way to China, this fusion restaurant never fails to deliver, and with the buffet-style setting, you know you will be absolutely stuffed when you leave!
As this spot is a buffet, it’s all about serving big groups. So bring along the whole family or a load of your friends and treat yourselves to some of the freshest, most decadent seafood you can find on the Atlantic Seaboard.
