Elliott's Oyster House - Maltkiln Lane

Good was very good. I was really not expecting this will be that good. I recommend the crab chowder, halibut ceviche and short rib.

Very bad! Don’t go! I feel like I was being discriminated against because I’m Asian or foreigner I’m not sure. When I required to the front desk, the waiters answered with very bad attitude! No any smile or greet. I just want to make sure is that available to change the table from outside to inside because it’s too hot to eat and relax under the direct sunlight and we feel uncomfortable even open eyes! And what them told us is “no”, “there is no more vacancy” in a very not polite way! No any eyes contact and I feel neglected. And the truth is, it’s already 2p.m! There are not much people! There are more five tables inside is not taken at least! They still reject us. We paid more than 250 dollars for this not happy meal and 20% obligated tipping. They really not deserved it. Btw the food is normal and very expensive!

Great service and fresh oysters. Really enjoyed a nice evening dinner the last night in town

Absolute overpriced tourist trap with a mandatory 20% fee for the ridiculous amount and quality of food.

We live in West Seattle and it's always a fun time to take the ferry over, do stuff and grab food in the area. This time we did Elliots, bit crowded but like the view and location! The oysters were delicious and the drinks are great, the seafood pasta and rockfish tacos were pretty bland and felt overcooked, but the sauces were nice, definitely targets the cruise ship tourist crowd but okay. The 20% surcharge and then having it pointed out that it goes to the restaurant was a frustrating uncomfortable experience (for the staff too I'm sure), because I can't figure out how much goes to the staff from that so we have to tip on top of that. I've paid less for Michelin star experiences in SF than this, so this was a pretty sour note, hope something gets resolved eventually before we bring visiting friends/family here.
