Really fresh oysters ! This is a fifth generation family business and they have their own oyster farm . If you go during happy hour , oysters are $0.33 off each. Dungeness crab is really good too!
A seafood store-cum-restaurant serving Taylor Shellfish Farms' own seafood specialties. Come between 2 and 4 in the afternoon on weekdays for its version of happy hour : no shucking fees!
Great place to try oysters for first time because you can buy them individually! Also I had the shellfish stew - PHENOMENAL. So fresh and flavourful!! Highly recommend glad that I came here.
Tried each oyster available — each was exquisite! Also, if you’re curious about PNW geoduck, it is prepared excellently here. As a bonus, service was superb. Highly recommended for seafood lovers!
Oysters were excellent, the Brazilian stew special (bell peppers , coconut milk , prawns , muscles and clams ) was delicious. If I lived here I’d stop by regularly
Oysters and geoduck are fresh and delicious. The oyster stew was packed with oysters . For no frills, awesome seafood , skip the touristy markets and come here.
Come earlier so you have more oyster options. Sashimi is also must try. You can enjoy each bite of this shellfish sashimi .
33 cents off for the oysters during the happy hour . Geoduck sashimi is great.
The coconut curry soup with vegetables was a little spicy and full of flavor. Also, great happy hour on the Shigoku oysters
Taylor Shellfish started in 1890 and is still serving the freshest shellfish in Seattle like—the exclusive shigoku oyster . Read more
Shellfish galore.... Oysters ? Crabs ? You name it. High quality stuff with a nice beer selection . Make sure to stop by if you're in the Seattle area
fresh seafood , and it's where most of the good restaurants get theirs from. come for happy hour and get some oysters or geoduck!
Some of the best-shucked oysters I've had in years. Really great salty/briney options too.
Awesome happy hour deals ! And if you've never tried guiduck (pronounced "gooey duck "), this is the place. Learn and taste everything raw - oysters to raw shrimp .
Sumo Kumo was the best oyster there. The chowder and moqueca were SO good! So flavorful and right amount of spice.
Andrew Zimmern visited this unique farm , one of the world's greatest producers of geoduck. Andrew gets a tour , and he learns how to harvest these giant clams by hand. As seen on Bizarre Foods America.
Great little oyster bar . Sad you can't scoop your own oysters anymore, but whatever. The staff is attentive and knowledgable . Spot prawns in the summer, too!
Seafood heaven. Only do the taster platter and the crab special. Nothing else matters.
The oysters and the service are #1, if you like oysters is the perfect place to go and taste excellent ones....
Try the geoduck sashimi . Also known as the 100 year old penis shaped clam you can eat raw with wasabi and soy sauce .
My @pandafoodie recommends any of these oysters . Pick and choose. Sit by the window and people watch too.
Get some seafood to make at home, or ask them to shuck some oysters (or prep some crab !) to enjoy there. If you want something warm, try the chowder ! We also love the DRY Soda . #ScrappyTips
Happy hour is good $21 for a dozen.
Love to stop here for a snack of fresh oysters and a glass of wine
Amazing Sampler. Super fresh and nicely marinaded
Probably the best oysters I’ve ever eaten
Sit at the bar tables and eat fresh oysters and dungeness crab right from the tank.
Highly recommend this place. Very knowledgeable staff and some if the best oysters I've ever had. Try the Totten Viginica!
Calamari salad is awesome and great to share too; unique taste with bamboo shoots n sesame seeds !
Ordered the half dozen was so fresh ????
Go here for the fresh oysters from around the world
Oysters lived up to the hype - super fresh
Get their geoduck soup , it complements the oysters very well !
Try the Shingoku (Japanese for "Ultimate") - an original raised by Taylor geniuses for your enjoyment
Delicious, fresh oysters . Nice wine selection . Informative waiters .
The Moqueça stew is filling, pungent, savory and warming. Get it.
Omg all the oysters were fabulous! So fresh and delish.
I'm more partial to oysters with cider ... And they have that covered!
Meh. It just was okay. Kind of disappointed with the service. Told the waitress we've never been before and didn't know the difference in oysters . Her response was "okay." That's all. No help.
If you take someone who has never had oysters and is bound to dislike them you get the rest!
2-4pm HH $4 off dozen of oysters . Enjoy!! Love my shigokus!!! So good!!
Great happy hour .
Fresh oysters ! Yes please. And super friendly staff .
Oysters , Moqueça stew , wine list
