"Named for the legendary Seattle newspaper columnist who was once the restaurant’s co-owner, this Pike Place Market staple has drawn long lines for decades and even won an America’s Classics Award from the prestigious James Beard Foundation. The cramped, no-frills restaurant doesn’t mess around with fancy mignonettes for its raw bivalves, which come simply garnished with a lemon wedge and cocktail sauce. The broiled oysters are also a solid pick." - Megan Hill
