Shuckers - The Fairmont Olympic Hotel Seattle - I Still Dream About It!



I had one of the very best local Dungeness Crab Cocktails here and still dream about it. We hit Shuckers every day for lunch when I was in Seattle. It’s difficult to beat the atmosphere, price and the quality any place in downtown Seattle. The dark woods of Shuckers are classic and I love the warm environment on a cold winter afternoon after walking around Pike’s Market all morning. The service is always friendly and there are over 13 varieties of oysters to be shucked from around Puget Sound and served up in Olympic fashion: baked, raw, smoked or Provencal to name a few. Between the specials and a frequently changing menu there's always a prospect here for an adventure. Shuckers has earned its long-standing, quality reputation and you will not be disappointed in either the outstanding food and presentation or the cozy atmosphere of this restaurant.
