Seafood-focused Round Rock restaurant Salt Traders Coastal Cooking announced the opening of a second location in South Austin’s Barton Oaks Plaza. “We’ve had so much fun over the last two years in Round Rock, and we’re fortunate to now open a second Salt Traders south of the river,” says Salt Traders Chef Jack Gilmore.

“We’ve built strong relationships with incredible oystermongers, fishmongers and local farmers, and are happy to continue to cultivate these relationships at a second location. The chefs at Salt Traders will have the best tools and toys in the kitchen to play with, giving them the ability to create some incredible food for the community,” he says. The new location, which will be called Salt Traders Zilker, will feature a drink program of coast-inspired beverages curated by David Toby (including a wine-on-tap program), all served in a space created by LEVY architects.
