Canlis - Seattle

How far this restaurant has fallen. I was here about the years and it was always great. praises our teen-aged grandsons the best steak dinner ever. they could not even order a steak......or salmon, prime rib, crab, nothing but this really terrible tasting menu. like a previous review, not enough food for even a small child. over $1,000 wasted on a meal, none of our family has finished. our daughter's birthday was ruined in summary, they get a new cook/menu or close. mike seattle

I have the luck to be able to experience canlis over 50 years and this evening amplified why the experience today is as good as ever. the service that loves to detail, the ambiente and of course the quality of the food is first class. my wife and I have celebrated several jubilee dinners at canlis and tonight we have

One of the best restaurants in seattle. it is located in a stunning building designed by roland terry 1950 and later developed in an iconic expression of modern design. enjoy the breathtaking view on seattle, lake union and the cascade mountain chain while eating in this wonderful place. the first canlis restaurant was opened in 1910 by a Lebanese immigrant, the great mother of the brand brian canlis (the current owner). canlis, there is a new cook. her name is aisha ibrahim, and she is the seventh chef in restaurant canlis and the first woman holding the position. if they are a person inclined to throw for a new food experience, they earn canlis to do. they impress their parents, their important others and their chief. if you are interested in exploring more restaurants and kitchens in seattle, follow my page on instagram @shesthegourmand for more.

What a wonderful restaurant; we were not so long, seemed like a great place to celebrate our 25-year anniversary (which was not recognized) they serve an adventure menu for a 3 curs meal for $165. there is not enough food for a little child. the plates were beautiful both on the presentation and on the variety of the schirr. eating was tepid, impressing. the duck was hard and the fish course was too dry to eat. that is not the right cook for this venue!

My husband made reservations for his birthday in April back in December and paid the $200 deposit. He had read in the newspaper that if you did not want the tasting menu, you could get a steak or a regular meal. Well, we went there and were told that we could not get anything except the tasting menu. The food was mediocre, at best, and very salty. Half of it was inedible for at least one of us. My husband won't eat mushrooms, so he gave me his and they were in a slimy type of sauce and I could not eat them. We paid and extra $48 for the waygu meat rather than a striploin, and for that, we were given a 1 inch square piece of meat. More rare than rare, salty, and fatty. Not Japanese A5 fatty, which I have in my freezer, but just gross and inedible. I have had all sorts of food all over the world, some good, some great, some not so great, but never paid this much for bad food. Perhaps because I prefer an eating menu, rather than a tasting menu of salt, and a disappointing dessert. The bottle of Leonetti wine was the best part of the meal, but it was not made by Canlis. This was very disappointing not just to me, but also to my spouse who really wanted to go. I would love to have given a great review, but the food was unwhelming.
