By now, if you haven't reserved your spot for this Saturday's Oyster Frenzy-- all you can eat oysters for $25-- it's all sold out.

Fortunately, this annual event kicks off Flying Fish's famous 25-cent oyster happy hour, available at the bar Monday-Friday from 5pm-6pm.

Elliott's is also celebrating the return of the oyster season by throwing an Oyster New Year Bash on Saturday, November 1 from 5pm-10pm. For $75 (advance tickets), you'll get to slurp 30 different oyster varieties, devour a generous seafood buffet and pair those with local wine and beer. Proceeds will benefit Puget Sound Restoration Fund, a nonprofit committed to restoring marine habitat, water quality and native species in Puget Sound.
