    From the moment you arrive at the host stand ~ You are in rarified territory. A restaurant that ebbs and flows effortlessly (with considerable professionalism from the staff) through out service. ‘Mama Lee’ greets you as an old friend and runs the Front-of-House with an expert hand. The staff (Chris was our server this night) was funny, efficient, and he made an off-menu request happen without issue. We are infrequent visitors due to the distance from home but are treated as regulars whenever we dine at Shuckers. This is a world-class establishment that would be at home in London, Cape Town, Paris, Madrid, or NYC.

    French toast was excellent. Was soft and glazed with syrup and caramelized mildly to have a soft bitter flavor pairing well with the sweetness. Crispy potatoes is a worth a mention. Best I have ever had in recent treats. Staff was attentive and courteous. Must visit spot for breakfast if any plans to visit Seattle Downtown area.

    This was our second visit to Walrus & the Carpenter and it maintained its excellence. We sat at the bar and thoroughly enjoyed watching the meal prep. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. The oysters were delicious, the profiterole dessert was decadent and we left full and happy. We will add this restaurant to our favorites list!
