The Walrus and the Carpenter

Gotta get there at like 3:40 to be in the first wave of customers when they open at 4pm. Came during the summer heatwave and they didn’t have AC so it was rather hot in there. I seldom get fried oysters but these were so good! Raw oysters were great too!

The food is phenomenal. I don't even like oysters and I love this place. Staff and service are like Trader Joe's employees x1000. I wish I had taken a photo of the dish ordered with fish; it was my favorite. Request the bread comes out with entrees so you can use the bread to sop up the sauce. Or order more bread. Also whatever they make for dessert, just get it. They. Know. Whats. Good. My only comment (and kind of warning) is there is absolutely no reason in the world why the scallop dish as an entree was so darn tiny. Don't get me wrong it tasted amazing but imagine taking a scallop and slicing it into 5 slivers and that is about the size of the dish. List it as an appetizer for better reference. I really can't complain though because each sliver tasted like what I imagine the fruit of the gods tastes like.

Had a great time with family here. Consistent service despite being super busy for a Monday night, unique dishes, quality food. I dropped my drink when it was served to me (not my proudest moment) and my waitress replaced it. I will definitely be returning with friends.

This was an amazing place to get oysters! They were so fresh. They clamoured from the sea and straight into my open gob. Our server was so friendly and cool, she felt like a bestie. 10/10 would visit again. Oh and expect a long wait, but totally worth it. Walk around Ballard while you wait!!
