The waterfront eatery is known for their progressive oyster hour that started with $1.50 a shuck at 3:00pm then increasing by 50 cents on the hour until 6:00pm, only available Mon &#8211; Fri. It may not be the best deal in the city, but it is popular among tourists in area since it was merely a few minutes walking down the hill from downtown shopping district or Pike&#8217;s Public Market.<\/p>\n<p>The drinks were fantastic. My local chardonnay was dry and stiff, just the way I like it with my seafood. William&#8217;s Pier Margarita was boozy but uber tasty and refreshing from fresh lime.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6990\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6990\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2.jpeg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6990\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-6990 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2.jpeg\" alt=\"image\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/image-2-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6990\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">house chardonnay and pier margarita<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The oysters were fantastic!

Tequila Mussels ($4) was just okay because the kick from tequila I was waiting for never happened. Calamari ($3) was crunchy but could use a little more seasoning. Oyster Stew ($3) and Pesto Salmon Slider ($4) were the better choices in thanks to the fresh seafood ingredients. But Pulled Pork Sandwich ($4) and Wagyu Beef Teriyaki Skewers ($4) were both slightly underwhelming.
