TL;DR
Nha Trang is great for fresh seafood — sea urchins, oysters, shrimp, and tuna steak are local favourites. A seafood meal for two in the centre starts around 1,700 RUB. Sushi spots exist but quality varies.
At sushi spots in Nha Trang, salmon nigiri is the safe bet — other options like shrimp and crab can smell muddy and disappoint. Meat options are very limited. Ice cream cones are a hit with kids.
Many travellers in Nha Trang skip lunch entirely — leftover shrimp and oysters from dinner, washed down with a beer, keep you full. Seafood portions are generous.
A seafood dinner for two in central Nha Trang — two sea urchins, a shrimp portion, tuna steak, and seaweed salad — came to around 1,695 RUB (approx. $18–19 USD) without drinks.
