The Walrus and the Carpenter is a popular restaurant, known for its difficulty to secure a seat due to its small size. It offers some of the freshest oysters in Seattle, with a taste that makes you feel like you collected them from the beach yourself. The fried oysters are light and not heavily breaded, while the Hama hama clams come with a delicious broth. The bread from Ben's Bakery, served with whipped butter, is also a must-try. The restaurant has a friendly and comfortable atmosphere, with super friendly staff and a great buzzing ambiance. It also features an adjoining bar with outstanding cocktails and bar snacks. The food and drinks are highly recommended for any oyster lover and anyone who appreciates excellent food.
