The new All Water Seafood & Oyster Bar, which is located on the site of what was a tackle & bait shop in 1936, draws inspiration from the materials and tools once sold there. It celebrates Seattle's maritime industry, from the portraits of fishermen and articulated shelves to the fresh seafood highlighting the best of the Pacific Northwest.

    Nice vibe in this hot spot in downtown Seattle, kitty-corner from the Seattle Art Museum. This place is famous for its sourdough pasta- yes, I said sourdough PASTA not bread. Pics I’ve added are the King Salmon & mushrooms and the Almond Pesto with sun dried tomatoes and goat cheese. Both were outstanding and the portions were too generous to finish since we’d started with the steamer clams in a creamy tomato-garlic vodka sauce with some rustic bread. Delicious. My wife enjoyed her scratch margarita and I had a 9oz pour of their Red Hammer Blend, a very drinkable house wine. But the evening was more memorable by the service provided by Katie. I think she checked back with us 3 or 4 times. We will be back for sure!

    Overpriced for the quality of chop salad we were served. It was extremely light on key ingredients other than salad greens. Service and setting was good.
