My date had a dozen raw oysters and I had the filet and shrimp. These entrées were delicious as expected, but the desserts were stellar. Hers was tiramisu, mine was a bread pudding with a sumptuous caramel sauce…to die for.

Oyster & Thistle is one of my favorite places to eat in La Conner. You can choose either the elegant upstairs restaurant or the cozy downstairs pub, with dark wood finishes and some fun little nooks & crannies. The menu offers some wonderful choices… I’ve never had a bad meal here. Favorites include the baked or fried oyster appetizers, the Northwest Seafood Stew, the French Onion Soup, and if you’re really hungry the rich and delicious Pan-Fried Oyster Fettucini. You can’t go wrong here!

Went to the Tulip festival, then decided to get some lunch and I’m glad I came across this biblical treasure. The food here is absolutely amazing (so, good it’s sinful) from the courses to the desert, they cannot do no wrong. In addition, the waiter who is also a phenomenal bartender, knows how to make unique drinks well mixed cocktails just by saying the type of alcohol you want. Definitely coming back soon.

Wow oh wow, what a fabulous meal! My friend had the paella and I had the duck confit – both were unforgettable. We barely spoke because the food was so good. The cherry demi glacé on the duck is HEAVEN. The fried oysters were tasty and fresh. However, the desserts (crème brûlée, bread pudding, and cognac) were the perfect end to this special meal.

Fantastic food and service. If you’re in La Conner, The Oyster and Thistle is a must stop. FYI, they don’t have a fryer, and I find that to be FANTASTIC

Came here for dinner. I had the dry aged steak(I believe it was 48 days) cooked rare. It tasted amazing. The sauce they used on it was very well made, although, I might have liked to see a little less on the plate, but still, and amazing steak. It came with tomatoes, asparagus, and potatoes. Those were all made well, dusted with salt. The wine was great. If you don’t mind a slightly more expensive evening, definitely worth sitting down and enjoying the quiet atmosphere. Service was good, relaxed, not overly in your face.

The oyster and thistle restaurant is a wonderful place to spend a relaxing evening enjoying incredible food. This evening I had a perfectly prepared black and blue filet mignon and my partner had seafood paella as well as oysters done in a Rockefeller style. All the food was amazing and the service was impeccable. Our server this evening was Kyle and I hope next time I go we get him again.

We got here not knowing there was going to be a parade. They sat us by the window looking down at the parade as it went by. We ordered the dishes recommended by the staff. They were all excellent. The seafood was fresh. The scallop risotto was amazing. Everything came out perfectly. We really enjoyed it.

This place is amazing!!!! The moment I sat down and saw no salt & pepper on the table I knew I was in for an incredible palate satisfaction. Food was perfection. Every single item that we ordered from the menu was delivered in a beautiful presentation and was absolutely delicious. Our server took the time to answer all of our menu questions and described everything with such passion and knowledge that I felt like I was one of the judges at a Food Network show. Just WOW. Romantic setting in the late evening. Huge wine selection. Outstanding service. Food did take a while to come out but it was worth the wait. Visit, you won’t regret it.

Fantastic! High end place, small and beautiful. The staff and food are amazing! Highly recommend. Pricing is about $50-$100 per person, depending on plate and drinks. (Review from 1-16-2022) reserving a table costs $50, but will be applied to you bill, as long as you actually show up.
