Taylor Shellfish Oyster Bar

Capitol Hill, Seattle · Seafood · $$$

Taylor has farmed shellfish in Puget Sound since 1890, which is why the oysters arrive tasting like the specific beach they came off rather than like generic brine. Order oysters, flash fried smelt and chilled Dungeness crab, and let the shucker steer you between beds. This is the Capitol Hill room, one of several the company runs: same farms, different address.
