I had an excellent meal at Shuckers! We started by splitting a half-dozen fresh oysters (3 different kinds, absolutely delicious), then I had a really terrific Ceaser salad with 3 anchovies (yum!), and my companion had the New England style clam chowder. We each had a fresh fish special - me the rainbow trout, he the Atlantic salmon, both served with oven-roasted potatoes and carrot puree, paired with a delightful Sancerre for $68 (the perfect acidity to pair with both the oysters and the fish). He thoroughly enjoyed his salmon, and my trout was great. Service and ambiance were both excellent (we were seated at the front window), and the total bill for a shared starter of 6 great oysters with all the fixings, great rolls, a starter and entree each, and a bottle of Sancerre plus tax was $204.
An old fashioned "seattle oyster house" in the beautiful Fairmont Olympia, with superlative food and great service - highly recommended!
