Coastal Flats, Seafood restaurant in Downtown Crown, Gaithersburg, US
Coastal Flats is a restaurant in downtown Crown that serves fresh seafood, traditional American dishes, and grilled items in a spacious dining room with contemporary furnishings. The kitchen works with seasonal catch options that change daily, grilled using hickory smoke to bring out the natural flavors of each fish.
The restaurant opened as part of the Great American Restaurants group, introducing upscale seafood dining to the suburbs of Maryland. This expansion moved quality fish and seafood service away from downtown centers into residential areas.
The menu draws on cooking traditions from Maine down to the Carolinas, with methods and ingredients that reflect how people along the coast have prepared seafood for generations. This regional approach gives the dining experience a connection to established coastal food customs.
The location sits at 135 Crown Park Avenue and welcomes visitors every day, staying open later on Fridays until 10:30 PM. Reservations are accepted up to a month in advance, making it easier to secure a table for your visit.
The catch changes daily based on seasonal availability, meaning repeat visitors always find different fish options on the menu. This constant rotation keeps the dining experience fresh and allows the kitchen to work with what is best at any given time.
