Taylor Shellfish Oyster Bar - Seattle

Foreplay with business colleagues. Outstanding service and amazing oysters. Can't say enough about the staff, ambience and quality of the food. Excellent.

Nice selection of oysters. It's expensive, but most of them are nowadays. Really nice champagne sauce. Horseradish is freshly rubbed and was mild. The mussels and the traditional sauce were very good. We ordered another one and fought over the juice. Bread good, but only available with a fee. A must for the mussel sauce! Beautiful sparkling rose at a fair price. Vesper martini ok, but we like our house made version better. Small place. Nice atmosphere. Rain (as it does) and not crowded for lunch. Recommend reservations for parties over four, as they don't have many big tables. Bring smaller tables together. A beautiful bar and a large mirror. I'll be back!

Dawn (Barkeeper) is great! She is fun, makes great menu recommendations (see: how to eat best Geoduck), and she is a fantastic bartender! We're definitely coming back.

The food was delicious. I thought the happy hour menu was too small, and the deals/discounts weren't that special. But the drinks and food were good, so I'm glad we tried it.

I normally don't write reviews but I had to take the time to share my experience at this location. The workers are incredibly helpful and kind. As a small family from Arizona we felt a bit out of our element but the workers at Taylor Shellfish Oyster Bar made us feel welcomed and appreciated. They catered to our every request with a smile and showed immense amounts of patience throughout our delectable dinner. A specific thank you to Josh, our waiter, for an experience we won't ever forget. Please know your kindness and helpfulness is incredibly appreciated. You are one of a kind! Highly recommend this restaurant! High quality food and high quality service.
