Description

The Brooklyn's tripartite mission means it rarely leads the lists of Seattle's best steak, fish and oyster houses, which are invariably headed by specialists. And the resulting insecurity sometimes shows: Most of the steaks here are draped in sauces and butters, and pristine halibut is finished with lobster bisque. But The Brooklyn doesn't need the bells and whistles, as the customers who crowd its dining room know (nothing wrong with snagging a captain's chair at the kitchen bar when every table's taken.) The meat and fish are terrifically fresh, and service is excellent. The staff is admirably well-versed in oysters, which are available in paired beer and vodka flights.
