Everything we enjoyed for dinner was excellent, including the service! but when you charge $95 for a steamed Crab it should be perfect! Our Crab looked and tasted like it had been steamed the day before and reheated. Atmosphere was excellent, entrees and deserts were excelent! read more

Needed a quick bite and some oysters on a sunny day, so Elliott's Oyster House was the perfect stop. I was able to get seated outside in the shade with a great view of the water. I ordered the clam chowder and, of course, oysters. The oysters were all amazing, with a great variety to choose from. They were shucked really well and came with both a mignonette sauce and a jalapeño sauce, which paired nicely with them. They are a bit pricey, but that's oysters for you. The restaurant itself is pretty big, though it can get packed during peak hours. If you're driving, just know there's no nearby parking since it's located on the waterfront, so you'll likely have to park a few blocks away. Overall, a great spot if you're craving fresh oysters with a view. read more

Drinks and food were spectacular!!!! Our waiter Nico was amazing explaining the oyster choices and did an excellent job choosing a variety for us . I've seen some complaints about the 20% service charge . It was very clear up front for us . Also was explained that about 8% goes to behind the scene staff and remaining is for the waiter . Ambiance was great . Sat outside and had a beautiful view of The Puget Sound . read more

Absolutely delicious. We stopped in for oysters and wine - ended up with a dozen oysters, crab cakes, and a Cesar salad. Service was quick, even though they were very busy. The tables were clean and the views of the Sound can't be beat. read more

Elliott's Oyster House - Fresh Oysters - Seafood Near Me - Seattle, Washington

You can't beat the views and oysters at Elliott's! Located on the Waterfront, this spot is right in the middle of all the action. It's super accessible if you're nearby doing activities and sight seeing. We dropped in to specifically try out their oysters. We trusted our waiter's recommendation and let her take the reigns in choosing our assortment. Honestly, probably the best damn oysters I've ever had. Everything is locally sourced from WA! Soooo fresh and clean. Simply unbeatable. For drinks, we got a Guavarita to sip on. It's an orange infused tequila with ancho verde, agave, lime, and guava tepache. The most refreshing summer drink! read more

I think the location, service and food is good! However, and it may be my fault for not calling and asking, but I was under the impression that there would be happy hour oysters when my mom and I went in June and I learned from the hostess that they do not do happy hour in the summer and this starts more in the fall. My mom and I mostly came for the oysters and there were so many options to choose from! I did like the little condiments that came with the oysters, especially the one with jalapeño. I will say that I felt the oysters were a little inconsistent with the taste and size when we ordered the same kind for the next round, but overall were good quality. I think I would like Elliott's better next time I come in for happy hour oysters! read more

The view! Fantastic dining room and patio with nice seating and ofc great views. Cocktails are great! Food is really good, too however it could be a little updated to include some more preparations and flavor profiles. Everything was super fresh. Service was great, as well. You can't go wrong. It's in a touristy area but it is a seriously pretty area so you'll definitely enjoy yourself! read more

An amazing and delicious experience would be an understatement for this place. From the wait staff to the oyster choices to the cocktails to the menu that is not seafood to the kids menu to the beautiful view of the pier. It all just came together in this restaurant. Both nights the wait staff was excellent with the first one being better than the second night. The cocktails were crafted perfectly and when I didn't like a cocktail, they took it away and gave me another one which to me showed class by the restaurant. My wife doesn't eat seafood, but there was a few excellent choices that she was happy with. My daughter was definitely happy with the buttered pasta and Parmesan cheese. We ended up going 2 nights because the food was that delicious and the choices of fresh oysters on a half shell were amazing. The hostess was very stressed because she had tons of people trying to come in, but she held her composure and did very well both times we came. If you haven't tried this place, you need to do it right now. read more

Wow! This was a an amazing experience! I thought it might be too touristy, but what we found was a really solid, slightly upscale restaurant right on the bay. We started with drinks at the bar and then got a table outside where we had smoked salmon chowder (simply amazing) and an assortment of fresh oysters. The bartender was great. Our waiter was an expert with the oysters (I'm not). Super fun experience. Doing four stars only because the hostesses were kind of snotty and slow when we initially checked in. Otherwise, 5 out of 5!! read more

We met up with some friends we hadn't seen in a while and enjoyed a wonderful late lunch at Elliott's Oyster House. It was a beautiful day, so we chose to sit outside and take in the scenic views of the bay, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We ordered a variety of dishes, including oysters, rockfish, a Caesar salad with salmon, a Crab Louie salad, and clam linguine. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The seafood tasted incredibly fresh, and each dish was prepared perfectly. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful when it came to selecting menu items, which made the dining experience even better. Between the excellent food, attentive service, and stunning waterfront views, this was a memorable meal all around. If you're looking for fresh seafood, great service, and an awesome view of the bay, Elliott's Oyster House is definitely worth checking out. read more

Recommended by a friend. On the waterfront seafood restaurant. Had an inside table and had the wonderful Garrett be our server. We sat inside and the bar and restaurant were beautiful. Food was delicious: fried oysters, sourdough bread, salmon ( hubby's)...I had the halibut w caprese salad and a yummy polenta but unfortunately I didn't take adequate pics of the menu so I don't remember exact preparations etc...and it was a new menu so their website did not show the updated menu. But it was so so good!!! Prices were a bit high but I guess that's to be expected for a waterfront restaurant in this area ( very touristy)... will give them a 5 star rating anyway. read more

Excellent choice for fresh oysters!! And so many to choose from! Service, with no reservation, was top tier! Seated on a Saturday, outside, immediately. Table for 2. Gorgeous view of the water. You can watch the local cruise ships as they sail away. Our waiter was great in helping us choose which oysters to try and which wine paired well. My friend got the Winner's Circle cocktail and loved it. We also had the house salad (no apple), mussels and shrimp. Excellent everything! read more

Elliott's is definitely a restaurant that I will check out again. Located right on the water, we sat inside since there was a possibility of rain but enjoyed the great view and the open windows. The table got oyster to split, which were all fabulous, one of us got clam chowder and the other a seafood pasta. Both were well cooked and generous. The server was kind and checked on us frequently, with waters filled without asking. What a great night! read more

Was in town for work and decided to take a walk on the pier. Ended up landing here to grab some oysters! They also had great reviews on Yelp which is always helpful. Greetings at the door were kind of awkward can't explain how or why, it just was lol. Since it was just myself, I opted to sit at the bar. Found seating at the oyster bar. Was greeted pretty quickly by Brandon. Service from waitstaff was kind of on the slower side (I had to grab my own menus since some time had passed... not sure if this was supposed to be handed to me at the front or not), it also took a bit to get my order and tab. But once i ordered the food came out pretty quickly (just got oysters, a beer, and chowder). But my waiter was def super friendly! Could've just been an off night. I think the saving grace here for my experience was Brandon! Glad I opted to sit at the oyster bar. This was my first time into Seattle, therefore first time visiting Elliot's. Appreciated the tidbits of knowledge he dropped regarding the oysters - honestly made me appreciate it more! Had him pick 6 different ones since I didn't have any context of the different species of oysters. Chatting with Brandon also felt like catchin up with an old friend. The oysters were delish! Super fresh and my favorite was the shigoku. The amount of oyster choices they had were overwhelming, in a good way! The spicy crab and corn chowder was also bomb, which was also recommended by Brandon as I was originally just going to try the classic/regular one. Id totally come back here again next time in town. read more

Absolutely INCREDIBLE (fresh fresh fresh) OYSTERS the accompaniments are miraculous and the selection of oysters galactic. If you like nonalcoholic drinks that are creative and not just soda with some sort of crap coloring in it then this is the place to go. We tried every single one on the menu. Service was stellar. Salmon, crab cakes, shrimp, clam chowder (sorry Ivars) and halibut and even the bread service with butter = YUM!! read more

Decided to do happy hour at Elliot's! Two of us ordered: black raven hazy $7 sauv blanc $8 ahi poke tacos $8 HH oysters were $2.50. We tried all of them on the list. The "deer creek" one was the best one! Kumamoto was a bit disappointing $5 ea Miyagi was a better premium one $4 ea Auto 20% service charge. Staff was friendly...didn't catch their name. Some oysters had a bit of shell/sand in them. Nice ambiance inside. Walked from hotel. Street parking only or probably a garage nearby. read more

Restaurant is located on the waterfront. We were seated quickly on the patio for dinner with no reservations.

We stopped by Elliott's Oyster House and had a great experience. We ordered the fried oysters, which were small but served as a great snack to share. It definitely feels like this place prides itself on unique recipes for both their food and drinks. While the oysters themselves were very good, the rich sauce they paired them with wasn't quite my favorite flavor profile. Personally, I think good ol' cocktail sauce and horseradish would have been plenty for me, but it was still a good dish! As someone who doesn't drink alcohol, I really liked that they had spirit free options available on the menu. The beverage I ordered (Spa Day) was absolutely delicious and soo refreshing. On top of that, we received excellent service throughout our visit. Bathrooms are also very clean. I would definitely recommend stopping by. read more

While visiting Seattle this spot was recommended for seafood. The waiter looked at us as if we didn't belong so that made the entire experience awkward.

Man, oh, man. We came here on a recommendation by a good man, and so happy we did. We had an early dinner so we're seated immediately. Our very attentive Josiah, got our dirty martinis out quickly and picked out our oyster flight. The oysters were perfect, sweet, briny and better than any I've ever had. The mignonette and fresh horseradish make a great difference! Loved every bite! Then we put in for a Caesar salad, cup of clam chowder, 1/2 Dungeness and sweet cream butter and a bottle of nice Oregon wine. The Caesar was perfect with extra cracked pepper. The clam chowder was better than any I've ever had in Boston. Dungeness was perfect sweet, meaty, lightly covered with olive oil, lemon, parsley, some very tasty potato wedges and a side of broccolini. I'll never be able to eat crab legs again without trying to recreate the sweet cream melted butter to dip every morsel in. I ate more of the wedges than I should have... Then my hubby ordered the creme brulee to finish it off!! That's my favorite dessert... crunchy caramelized top, strawberries and fresh whipped cream... we couldn't finish it. The meal was perfect and for the quality, worth every penny! If you're ever here, go to this special place. Life is too short for boring food! read more

We went to Elliott's for our 36tj Anniversary dinner. It did not disappoint but it was a delicious delight. There were six of us in our party. The service was impeccable. We had dungeoess crab cakes, the seafood ciopino stew, grilled halibut with citrus cream, wagyu skirt steak, bbq swordfish, fettuccini with Dungeness crab, wine, house made bread with creamed butter, key lime cake, and chocolate mousse cake with raspberry puree. Every single bite was delicious. The epic tastes were the ciopino broth, the bbq swordfish, and the chocolate mouse cake with raspberry. Our waitress went above and beyond. She was super sweet and attentive. She had recently gotten engaged and we talked a bit about the importance of communication and patience being key to a healthy marriage. This meal was worth every penny and what a great memory with our family. read more

We're back at Elliott's Oyster House after a many many years, and wow, what an upgrade. The space has been updated beautifully and feels more upscale while still being inviting. Service was excellent from start to finish. We felt genuinely welcomed and well taken care of the entire time. Of course, we came for the oysters, and they did not disappoint. We worked our way through almost the entire list, ordering by the dozen, and ended up finishing three dozen between the three of us. Each one was incredibly fresh and truly tasted like the ocean. We also tried the seabass and ceviche, both of which were delicious, but honestly, it's hard to beat the freshness and quality of their oysters. Keep it up, Elliott's! We'll definitely be back next time we're in Seattle. read more

At 4:30 pm Checked Yelp for a best Happy Hour on the waterfront- yay! Elliot's oyster house came up and it worked for us because we would be having dinner there at 5:45. Passed up many opportunities for HH on the way there only to find out upon arrival that there's NO HAPPY HOUR AT ELLIOTT'S OYSTER HOUSE DURING THE SUMMER. Consider this your Public Service Announcement!! Dinner was very very good- just be sure you're aware (and they tell you repeatedly) with signage and verbally that there is an automatic 20% charge added to your bill. Entrees are pricey- $45-60 range and if you want bread, you'll have to pay for an order. All things that are GOOD TO KNOW! read more

We went for happy hour and it did not disappoint! Keep in mind: they only have about 15ish dedicated tables to happy hour so you may have to wait. We got lucky and didn't but that is something to keep in mind. We got oysters, crab leg, ceaser salad, and the crab corn chowder. Service was decent but the restaurant itself was huge. The view of the water was also beautiful! Would definitely recommend their happy hour. Street parking wasn't too bad when we went. read more

Elliott's Oyster Bar is a great spot to dine in for oysters! We sat at the bar and found a very knowledgeable oyster shucker! Came in at night time without a reservation, so they asked if we would be ok with sitting at the bar which had all the oysters on display. So we were fine with that and glad we got to hang out with the person who helped us learn more about the different oysters they were carrying at the time! We literally only ate different types of oysters, and they were displayed very well on the plate! Overall the service, standard, and getting a little note for which oyster was which, was an awesome experience! read more

I came here for my birthday during lunch to celebrate with a couple of coworkers. We seated in the back section and our server was Griffin. He's very knowledgeable on oysters and honestly a lot of different topics which made for a very fun and entertaining lunch & learn! We quite enjoyed his company. We all have three oysters each: Indigo, Shinsei & my favorites Kumamoto. But in the end, I realize that I really love the indigo oyster!! if ever you see that at a restaurant I had to recommend that you order them! For lunch, so I ordered the grilled prawns which came with a rich and flavorful risotto ! 5/5 I would definitely order that again. It was so delicious. The risotto was cooked just right and the prawns were huge! I also paired my meal with a very nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc. I typically don't order dessert either, but Griffin came out with an amazing crème brûlée for my birthday. My coworkers ended up ordering a carrot cake, which was very moist and delicious. The ambience of the restaurant was very inviting with lots of rich wood texture and comfortable seating. If you're able to get a booth in the back, you can see Pier 56 and the water. Especially on a nice day the view is spectacular. Overall, you just can't go wrong dining at Elliott's! read more

My sister and I visited Elliott's Oyster House for the first time last night, and it was one of the best dining experiences we've ever had. Our server, Niko, provided the best service I've ever received. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the oysters and took the time to explain everything to us. I'm not usually an oyster person, but thanks to his recommendations, I actually found some that I truly enjoyed! Niko was kind, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we sat down. His genuine enthusiasm and attention to detail made our evening so memorable. And the food... absolutely amazing! The mussels were incredible, and the bread and butter were to die for. We'll definitely be back, and I'll be recommending Elliott's to all of my friends and family. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! read more

Elliott's Oyster House - Seafood Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Went here for Happy Hour (2:30pm-4:30pm, M-F at bar & lounge until Memorial Day). The hostess asked if we wanted to sit at the bar or at a table by the window. We picked the table because I just can't miss out on a view of the water, even if it's on the side of the building! I love raw oysters so I had to take advantage of the oyster deal for happy hour. There were two types- Little Skookum or Samish Pearl, for $2.50 each. Got six of each. I thought it was really cool that the menu included that the oysters were "beach" and "tumbled"... I had to look up what those terms meant and it opened my eyes to a whole new world of knowledge in oysters... but anyway back to the review... When the oysters arrived, they were on an ice tray with mignonette, lemon, and what I thought at first was pink salt. No mini spoon for mignonette so we just poured it onto our oysters and/or used our forks. The oysters were shucked well, delicious, and that "pink salt" wasn't salt... it was something like a melon flavored shaved ice... and it was amazing on the oysters!! I wish I had asked the waiter what exactly the stuff was, but I loved it. The mignonette was awesome, too. Also tried a few HH cocktails: Martini- ($10) You can choose between vodka or gin, my partner went with gin. The server asked how he wanted it, and he was able to get it "dirty" for no extra charge. I tried it too and it was definitely one of the better martinis I've ever had. Blush Crush- ($10) The description mentioned many floral elements, and strawberry infused vodka. While it tasted good, all I could taste was strawberry. I like floral flavors so I was disappointed in this. Champagne Tears- ($8) This was described as the "oyster pairing cocktail." It even had mignonette in the ingredient list. I LOVED THIS DRINK. I can't describe well what it tasted like... but it was a subtle salty & sweet something that was just so smooth and pleasant. I wish I had the recipe to make this at home. Ah yes can't forget, we also had the HH Tequila Lime Mussels ($7). While both the tequila and lime flavors didn't come through, the mussels were wonderful and plenty, and the creamy broth was great. The bread it came with was just enough to sop it up. I will say, the service was slow, but luckily we had nowhere to be anytime soon afterwards. If we did, it might've bothered me more. Also, the automatic 20% gratuity included in the check was mentioned before we even sat down, so it wasn't a surprise- but I'm not sure I'm happy with that style of charging the customer. Our server was wonderful and did not pressure us to tip anymore (although it is an option). Overall we had a great experience, and I'd recommend giving Happy Hour here a try! read more

Come here for the oysters/raw shellfish and everything else is missable. Oyster bar is probably the most impressive I've ever see with dozens of varietals.

Good wine list as well. read more

Went to the waterfront today to play tourist and came across Elliott's. Stopped in for lunch and sat outside on the deck. We started with a couple of non alcoholic drinks that were very refreshing. For lunch we ordered the long cod and chips and rye crab and shrimp melt. The long cod was nice and moist and flaky. It paired well with the tater sauce. The order also came with a generous portion of French Fries and homemade coleslaw that was nice and creamy. The crab and shrimp melt was also delicious with a nice rich flavor. Our waiter, Hunter, provided excellent service and made great entree suggestions. This is a great place to eat and to take in the beauty of Puget Sound. read more
