The nation’s largest aquaculture shellfish farm has been farming shellfish off the Washington coast since 1890 through five generations of family. Expect to see platters of “oysters getting shucked in the fast-paced and high-energy setting,” says Jada Pearson, the marketing manager for the farms. The oyster bar's Salish Sampler is a popular game day choice, with a shuckers dozen, prawns, geoduck sashimi, a half Dungeness crab, and a tin of the farms’ Ekone smoked oysters and accoutrements." - Tim Newcomb

"Taylor Shellfish is a Seattle oyster institution. And while one could theoretically sip sparkling wine and whisper sweet nothings (about oysters) to a date here, one could also drink local beer and watch some sports on TV with a fried prawn po’boy on the side. That’s what we’ll be doing." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
