The Brooklyn Seafood, Steak & Oyster HouseCan't wait to come backOne of our favorite Seattle spots. This was our third visit and we are already looking forward to our next one. The staff is fantastic, the food is great and the oysters are out of this world.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMPre-Symphony @ BrooklynThe staff was quick to seat us and the waiter very accommodating in getting us fed and out in time for the symphony.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMVery enjoyableI try to dine at The Brooklyn every time I'm in Seattle. The area facing the chefs has comfy chairs and an up front view of your meal being prepared. Menu offers many great options, in addition to seafood. Service is always spot on. A trip to Seattle just isn't right without a trip to The Brooklyn.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a top choice when inAlways a top choice when in Seattle
The Oyster sampler is a must!4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food, great locationMy wife and I went to the Brooklyn to escape from the kids and work. We loved the quiet but vibrant atmosphere and the options at the bar. I ordered the bouillabaisse, and it was probably the best stew I have had in my life, certainly the best bouillabaisse. It's not easy to cook that many types of seafood (especially octopus) without over- or under-cooking at least one thing, so I was equally impressed by the food and the skill shown in its preparation. My wife ordered the day boat scallops and loved them as well, although I think she would have appreciated more than just the three (albeit sizable) mollusks that arrived. For dessert, we split a deconstructed s'more of sorts: chocolate mousse, marshmallow creme, and graham cracker crumbles.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMDespite our initial difficultyDespite our initial difficulty in finding parking near the Brooklyn, due to nearby concerts, etc, we finally arrived at the restaurant somewhat later than our reserved time. We appreciated the restaurant's understanding and holding our reserved table. The service, food, wine and ambiance were all to our liking, and worth the effort in getting there on a rainy night. Being from Atlanta, we have always enjoyed spending an evening at the Brooklyn Steak and Seafood when in Seattle. Thanks for helping make it a successful dining experience.4/18/2013 12:00:00 AMWent with a colleague forWent with a colleague for a nice dinner while I. Rattle for a conference.

Oh and the food was spectacular as always. :-)4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWe made a reservation forWe made a reservation for 8:30 on a Friday night. We arrived a few minutes late but were seated right away. The restaurant was not busy at all. Our server expained the menu in detail and was very easy going and hospitable. They have a very good wine and liqour selection. I was pleasantly surprised that they have single malt scotch. I ordered New York strip steak and my friend ordered the salmon. Both were cooked to perfection.Our server came by a few times to check on us. The steak came with mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. The steak was seasoned just right. We just had dinner and drinks. We took our time but we left before ten o'clock. The atmosphere was classy and reminded me of a saloon. I would definitely go again.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Great Great!!!The Brooklyn was a great find. The food was outstanding and the service was top notch. The presentation of the food was superior to most local restaurants. The wine list was outstanding and considering that I am a bit of a wine snob this list more than met my expectations. In my opinion this is a must when visiting or living in Seattle.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMThe oysters in the OysterThe oysters in the Oyster Sampler were superb. The service was very attentive. Ii found it to be a little too much on the pricey side.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMFood and atmosphere were veryFood and atmosphere were very good and the service was outstanding.

Love to eat here.3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMNice booths, also high backNice booths, also high back swivel chairs at counter in front of open kitchen. Service was very good, waiter was knowledgable about food and menu. Extensive wine list. Warm bread served with butter and olive oil. Menu has small plates, starters, soups (including a rich thick clam chowder) and salads, steaks, oysters, seafood and a farms section that has local meats and poultries. We came for seafood and I was disappointed in the choices; there weren't many entrees to choose from. That said, the dish I chose- Scallops with shortrib meat and scalloped potatoes- was quite delicious. My husband's sablefish was delicious as well. We skipped dessert- we were too full. Overall a nice experience.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our second visitThis was our second visit to The Brooklyn. The food is quite exceptional, prepared to perfection and served in an appealing manner. The staff could not be more helpful with recommendations. This is a Seattle landmark, deservedly so. We will be sure to visit again whenever we are in Seattle.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMBest clam chowder ever!Food inconsistent. Clam chowder best we've ever had and scallops delicious and interestingly prepared. However my husband had boullibase which tasted too strong and extremely fishy. Service and atmosphere fantastic.
