seafood salad

Chilled marine mixture

Seafood salad is a cold dish combining various cooked shellfish and fish—typically shrimp, crab, lobster, or squid—with a creamy dressing, often mayonnaise-based.

It may include celery, onion, or herbs for added texture and flavor.

Seafood salad appears as a sandwich filling, served over greens, or eaten on its own.

The deli's seafood salad on a croissant is their best seller.
