Seattle Caviar Company

FYI* caviar tastings are closed at the moment. However, you can grab some to go! I popped in on a Thursday and was attended so well. The person that helped me was so knowledgeable and friendly. I got the paddlefish 1 oz of caviar, crème fresh and fresh baked bilinis! Total was around $48 something so, don't worry there is affordable prices! Everything was 10/10! I also checked their website and they deliver! Perfect for a gift or a little treat for yourself.

Ask about their caviar tastings! Buy caviar & related items (spoons, serving dishes, bilinis & champagne) here while having access to someone who can answer related Qs. (There are also informational cards for some of their products.) 5*

They also sell truffles, foie gras, duck, crème fraîche, salts, oils, vinegars, and more.

My mum & I ordered caviar for thanksgiving a few years back & the jars came opened & stale :( total waste of our money & time. We were really looking forward to it too :(

Well, it's not going to get too much fancier than this, as boutique specialty shops go. It's not going to get much friendlier or better-run, either.

They're on the ground floor of a mixed-use condo building on a stretch of Eastlake that's not too painfully busy, at least outside of rush hour. I've gotten super lucky with parking the couple of times I've been here, but in this neighborhood that's really not a given. Worth it, though.

You can go a couple ways here. You can get flights of caviar and other things to munch on while you're there, and you can do a bit of shopping for things to take home with you.

To be honest, this goes beyond what I usually consider the most luxurious treats, and really blasts off into serious ultra-premium goods. One of my best buddies lost a dear friend this year, a guy in San Diego who had a natural knack for bringing together food and beverage people for all kinds of special events that often went spiraling off in fun, adventurous, and unexpected directions. That dude evidently loved him some foie, and got my buddy hooked on it.

As a sort of impromptu memoriam this summer, we sampled a couple kinds of foie from SCC, and now we're back at it. I picked up 3 kinds yesterday. It's too rich for some in our group, and a couple people have a psychological block about eating it (understandably enough). You could say I'm getting a bit hooked myself.

Yesterday I checked out the interior of the place after ordering online. It's really nice inside, clean and brightly lit, with marble counters, several coolers, and tables with stools over by the windows. The folks behind the counter are friendly and easy to talk to, and I'd be happy asking them a million rookie questions about caviar and all this other fancy stuff. And I'd have to ask rookie questions. 'Cause I'm still a complete rookie.

We've talked a few times about Ubering around on a pub crawl, and making this place a fun stop for crazy-indulgent snacks at some point on the itinerary. I'm really, really hoping we do that. I'm loving bringing home foie, wrapped up in gift bags with ice packs inside as they do it--smart AND stylish. But I wanna try a bunch more stuff in a social setting.

If you want to try the best of everything in Seattle, you should put at least one stop at this place on your to-do list.

Absolutely delicious caviar. Great service. Will be back for the next special occasion

We needed to get some quality omiyage for my parents before we returned home for all they've done for us. Saw this place on Yelp and the wife wanted to do a long stroll through Eastlake so it worked out perfectly.

This was just a super cool experience all around. We got here 20 minutes before closing and I really wanted to do the tasting. The female employee could have easily shooed us away since some effort goes in to preparing a tasting but she just smiled and said she should be able to get everything ready in time. The tasting was so fun just to be able to sample 7 different types of caviar (since I obviously couldn't afford to buy 7 different tins) while also enjoying a mini glass of champagne.

The employee was a great host, very knowledgeable, and just an all around pleasure. We ended up buying 1 oz of the Baerii and 1 oz of the California white sturgeon. Nothing like spending $210 at an eatery in 20 minutes.

Krista was so helpful and so knowledgeable about all things caviar! I love coming here for my caviar needs anytime I have a celebration. The owners are also so sweet and helpful. Idaho Sturgeon is by far my favorite!

I've Try a lot of different caviar company and seattle caviar offers one of the best caviar:

I needed truffles for my wife's birthday dinner (check out the French Laundry cookbook for salmon and potato chip recipes). The truffles were flawless, and given to me wrapped, sealed, and placed in a cooled lunch box. From a COVID-19 standpoint, I was helped over the phone and the package brought to me outside by a masked employee.

Really enjoyed this experience. It was fun and relaxed at the same time. I wish they still gave discounts on purchases if you purchased the tasting. I'd go more often and be more apt to host something there.
