Bar Melusine

Graceful, friendly service exudes at this lovely spot. I always feel so comfortable at a Sea Creatures dining room, and I am always well taken care of. Went in for the burger, but got tempted by a small list of steaks being offered from next door. Clam dip was super tasty, but would have loved more pronounced clam flavor. Do not sleep on the bread pudding! DAMN!!!!

Boat Bar is a nice place to celebrate or enjoy a meal of seafood and meats. The atmosphere is clean and inviting with a European feel. The food is a joy to try, I am finding some dishes are a little over seasoned but overall a very pleasant meal. I continue to come back and look forward to new dishes from the kitchen. Thanks

We walked in for Happy Hour on a Thursday and had no issue getting seated. This is definitely a place to get fresh oysters, a cocktail, and maybe a few small plates if you're interested. I'll start by saying that the oysters were incredible. So fresh and generally delicious. The vibe inside was relatively chill/quiet which was nice, and aesthetically the white & turquoise played into a really pleasant ambiance. We also tried the prawns dish and it just wasn't for us. It was a bit too savory and at that price per prawn, I would've much rather just gotten more oysters (especially during HH). They had lots of small plates that sounded good, so I'm sure there's something for everyone... but for premium prices, I'd prefer not to feel like the menu might be hit-and-miss. This came as a surprise/disappointment to me, as I have loved trying different Sea Creatures restaurants when in the Seattle area. I know I referenced price above, but it is fair to note that premium experiences tend to come with premium prices. Therefore, fresh (delicious) oysters come at market prices (as you'd assumed). For those wondering... my guess would be that their selection likely ranges between $4-6 per oyster (depending on what they're serving). Our Sippican oysters, for example, were on the higher end at $5 per ($4 with HH). Their Happy Hour goes from Open (5pm) to 6pm, and offers $1 off oysters, beer, wine and house cocktails. This is DEFINITELY something to take advantage of if you plan to come to try a selection of their oysters, as the $1 off each oyster really adds up! I'd come back - I just likely would stick to HH oysters and play it safe👌🏽

This is the best oyster selection in Seattle. However they source the oysters, they somehow just taste better here. The small plates are great, don't skip the beef tartare. The cocktails are fun, and the wine list is full of unique flavors. Especially the whites, full of unusual minerally french gems. Don't forget to ask for the house made hot sauce, have it with a side of fries!
