About Waterfront Seafood Market

Waterfront seafood is a family owned seafood restaurant and market in West Des Moines, Iowa. It is headed by Ted Hanke with daily operations supported by daughter Jennifer Haus, son Shawn Hanke, and friend and general manager Mark Andrews. Waterfont has been in business 24 years, bringing Des Moines and the central Iowa area the finest quality fish and seafood available anywhere. Inside Waterfront, You'll find an oyster bar, sushi bar, casual restaurant and seafood market.

Most of our fish and seafood is bought directly on the docks where the fisherman bring in their catch. By avoiding the use of brokers, Waterfront is able to buy the freshest fish and seafood available to anyone, anywhere. Our fish and seafood arrives via airfrieght and is loaded directly into our specially-built cooler at the airport to keep everything as cold as when it left the docks.
