Canlis may be pricey, but you get what you pay for. The ambience is incredible, the service top-notch, the food very good. The wine list is extensive and they have a bottle for any budget. This is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion, but even if you're just going there for the heck of it and/or aren't spending the big bucks, the owner and his gifted staff of servers will make you feel like a million dollars. Pros: Unsurpassed service, Great food, Magical ambience

For years Canlis has been our favorite restaurant in Seattle. Everything worked...the food, service, ambiance. This most recent visit was the total opposite. The salad was tasteless, the entree a noticeably smaller portion than in the past and the service was inexplicably distant. Gone was the feeling that Canlis cared about every detail of the evening. The evening ended with an unfortunate event and I contacted Canlis the next day regarding the way the wait staff handled this event. I was told that someone would get back to me. They did, days later, with an odd phone call and barely an apology. Had the last event not occurred or the management been more concerned about the way it was handled, I might have been inclined to give Canlis another chance and say the kitchen had an off night. I'm left with the feeling that they just don't care.

This restaurant is deserving of it's reputation as one of Seattle's best. The staff is courteous, hospitable and helpful, and the food is top notch. Canlis has one of the most extensive wine lists on the west coast that includes both cost-effective and top shelf wines from around the globe. I don't think I've ever had a steak cooked/prepared as perfectly as any I've enjoyed at the Canlis. The view is one of the best in Seattle and the ambience is very romantic. Be sure to wear a suit or tux as this is a high-end establishment.

The Scene
Congregated stones mix with branches and pierce the walls, creating a dramatic interior effect. The beautifully appointed atrium gives way to a display of natural light as Lake Union nearly spills into the dining room. Splurging couples will get the exceptional attention they hope for; the first-class staff delivers consistent, quality service.
The Food
Straightforward starters are stellar, including silky Dungeness crab legs; garlic, lime and red-pepper prawns and the coconut-kissed Canlis chowder. Alaska halibut bathed in a warm, tomato-shallot compote is flavorsome, but lacks that extra something to justify the hefty price tag. Surf and turf goes upscale when petite Wasyugyu (Kobe-style) tenderloin is paired with a plump scampi. Delicate seasonal vegetables are scattered next to entrees, but those looking for more can share a grilled portobello, sweet white corn or a twice-baked potato.
