We’ve been going to Coastal Flats for years and always meant to finally leave a review—because this place truly never disappoints. The menu is loaded with favorites, starting with the Ozzie Rolls—warm, fluffy, and completely addictive. No matter what we order, it’s always a hit: lobster roll, lobster bisque, ribeye, burger, grilled chicken, salmon, pecan-crusted trout, lobster salad—you really can’t go wrong.
Service is efficient, friendly, and consistently on point, even during busy times. The seating area is comfortable and welcoming, making it an easy choice for both casual meals and special outings. Reliable, polished, and crowd-pleasing every single time—five stars, without question.

Coastal Flats is a wonderful restaurant with a welcoming ambiance and outstanding service. The food exceeded our expectations—we started with several recommended appetizers, including the blue crab fritters, baby crab cake sliders, and deviled eggs. Every dish was delicious, with the blue crab fritters being the clear standout.
For the main course, we ordered the shrimp pasta, crab cake served with fries and coleslaw, smoked salmon fillet, and trout. The crab cake was exceptional—fresh, soft, and perfectly textured. Despite the restaurant being busy, the service was prompt and attentive.
The location is ideal, situated at ground level in Tysons Corner Center, making it easy to access. We made a reservation so there was no wait time. Reservations would be recommended but not absolutely necessary since you can spend time in mall till your wait time. Prices are reasonable for the quality offered, and we would definitely return—especially for the amazing crab cakes.

I had an amazing dining experience at Coastal Flat Restaurant! The atmosphere was inviting and relaxing, perfect for a casual meal or date. The staff was friendly and attentive. My server Jose was exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I highly recommend the Shrimp and Grits or Filet Steak. Overall, a fantastic place to enjoy great food and good vibes. I’ll definitely be returning soon!

The food and drinks here were amazing! They offer an unlimited bread basket that you pay $1 for and that dollar goes to charity, which is really nice. The the rolls were delicious and you got to feel good about it! I had a Caesar salad which was really yummy (I didn’t love the croutons- I prefer ones with a slight give and more seasoning) and a side of fries which was perfect. Prices were reasonable and I left feeling really content. The servers were super sweet, and friendly but not always the most attentive. I also had a virgin mango mojito which was out of this world! I wanted to get the bread pudding- it looked really nice, but I had to get going. I’d definitely come back though!

This review is long overdue, but Coastal Flats deserves its flowers ️. I’ve been here several times and I’m basically in a committed relationship with their bacon cheeseburger ❤️
The Ozzie rolls? A *must*. Non-negotiable. Mandatory. If you don’t get them, we cannot dine together ✨. They’re soft, warm, and dangerously addictive.
And don’t even get me started on the white chocolate bread pudding . I always try to “save room” like I’m disciplined, but let’s be honest… I’m showing up *for* the bread pudding. Everything else is just the opening act.
The customer service is always great, super friendly, and consistent, which keeps the whole experience top tier . Honestly, this place stays one of my favorites and never misses.
If you need me, I’ll probably be at Coastal Flats planning my next bacon-cheeseburger-plus-dessert combo .

Coastal Flats is a beautiful large restaurant with plenty of choices. I like the atmosphere at Holiday time with many poinsettias lined up in the restaurant. My favorite is the warm goat cheese salad with chicken. I also love their warm bread basket.

BEST Fish and Chips around! So crispy, savory, and seasoned to perfection! I love how they gave me the option to switch my coleslaw for the tomato/cucumber salad! The salad is so fresh! I will always come back to Coastal Flats because they never disappoint!

We had the sautéed shrimp and grits cake, as well as the shrimp roll — both were absolutely delicious. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, retaining great flavor and texture. The French fries served with the roll were thin-cut and fried in clean oil, giving them a crisp, fresh taste. The grits cake was soft and smooth, just like its name suggests — almost like a savory cake. The restaurant’s interior was stylish, and our server was kind and attentive. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we’d love to come back again.

A lovely premium American dining experience with a good mix of seafood and non seafood options. We started with the crab and shrimp sliders which were addictive, then had some crab and corn chowder and a crab cake and steak. Will come back!
