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. The rustic materials draw from the simplicity of fishing boats, incorporating worn white-washed wood, metal, and simple white brick.

    Our daughter requested spending her 26th Birthday at The George as she has never dined here before. From the moment we pulled into valet until the moment we pulled out we received exceptional top shelf service. All of our meals were exquisite and beautifully presented. The desserts delicious. Chris D. is an amazing waiter spoiled us all night the dining room was packed yet he managed to take care of every tiny detail. I highly recommend everyone to enjoy some time in The George, if only for a quick cocktail and an appetizer you won't be disappointed.

    Totally delightful dining experience. The setting is cozy and welcoming. Anfonie provided excellent, friendly and knowledgeable service. He expertly answered any questions we had and helped make our evening enjoyable. My friend and I tried the sweet potato gnocchi and loved it. We also were happy that we ordered the excellent bread service. I had the delicious Orecchiette with spicy italian sausage, and my friend had the burrata. Both were perfectly prepared and delicious. This was my first time dining at Tulio, but I will definitely be returning.
