Cordelia, a name whose origin in some Celtic cultures means “daughter or heart of the sea”, draws on regional culinary influences from Spain, Portugal, Asia, and the Americas – focusing on areas that use high heat charcoal to coax the best out of fish, alongside a diverse offering of conserva, crudo and cured seafood.

Happy Hour Monday thru Friday from 4-6 pm and late-night.

    Everything from the service to our food was amazing! We had shrimp cocktail, crab dijonnaise, calamari, bread, and a few other dishes, and shared everything with a group of 4. The quality and portion sizes were perfect. The restaurant is beautiful inside and the service was all around very nice. A great addition to union market district!!

    I loved this new seafood restaurant by Union Market ( I am picky). I had giant prawns, super tasty; others in my party loved their food, all grilled over a wood charcoal stove ( think Dabney). The service could not have been better with a relaxed but knowledgeable and friendly server. They nicely accommodated a dietary restriction for one of our party. The special sweet potato desert killed it !!!
