This place is really something special if you are trying to show a loved one that you care. The food quility is top notch the staff is well trained. Their menu changes with the seasons and the seafood selection is amazing. The price is steep but what do you expect for such dazzling digs.

One of my favorite places to eat. The prices are high but this is quility gourmet at its finest. You can eat some of the best dishes that Seattle has to offer. Everything has a Northwest flair including the great decor. Located just before the Aurora bridge it also offers a great view of the ship canal.

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

OK - I may be a little biased here since this is where my fiance proposed to me but he did wait till the end of the dinner, and it would have still been one of the most unforgettable dining experiences in the area regardless. If you want a fancy, romantic dinner with great views this is definitely the place to go. They have the best and largest wine list I've seen in the area. The sommelier is a real pro. and can help select the best bottle based on your tastes. And the food... to die for. The staff here work hard to ensure that you are really having a great dining experience. I can't recommend this place enough. Go, go, go...
Pros: EVERYTHING

We celebrated our anniversary at Canlis and had a wonderful experience. The food was fantastic (perfect martinis!) - the wine list is the most expensive I've seen, but very good. We ended up bringing our own bottle. Try the house salad and the crab cakes - both are excellent. It was a little bright where we sat, but overall the decor is beautiful and the service exceptional.
Pros: food, service, atmosphere

Just right! The service is fantastic (definitely a "10"). Parris, thank you for a wonderful service.
Canlis prepared the best Beef tenderloin ever. Buttery and flavorfull. The wine selection is excellent. Residing in the SF Bay Area, our expectation is high in terms of food and Wine. Canlis provided that and more. Charles Nob Hill French Laundry and Daniel, NYC although in a different league, does not compare. Outstanding food without the pretence. Save your $$$ and do dine at Canlis.
Pros: Service, Food, Atmosphere
Cons: Hard to find

Everyone is a food critic...my friends and I love going out to eat at restaurants we can never afford. School formal events always give us that excuse to spend money like it's candy money. We must say that Canlis is our favorite special event spot in Seattle. You basically pay for the view and atmosphere...but the food doesn't dissapoint!
Pros: Atmosphere, View

I have dined at Canlis 13 of the 15 times my business has brought me to Seattle in the last 6 months.
Every time I enjoy watching the blatant displays of self-importance and projected airs onto this staff who so obviously do uphold the idea that you are being welcomed into their "home." I would (like the rest of the country) place Canlis among the likes of Charlie Trotter's, Fr. Laundry, 5th Floor; Canlis is out of Seattle's league.
We found the food comforting and were happy with the Northwest staples skillfully prepared.
I was upset that night to find an older patron yelling at the young Asian server as if she were deaf assuming she could not understand when she spoke perfect English. Canlis fills its delicate role perfectly, keeping one foot in the grave by giving deference to its aging regulars while reinventing itself for the next generation!
Pros: SERVICE!, views, wine, cocktail, owners on site
Cons: large groups on floor, small bar area

I enjoyed the ambiance, the nice, if not difficult to understand waitperson, and the fantastic view. However, for the price I didn't think the food was that great. Good, sure, but not worth what they charge. When I plan to spend that much on dinner again I'll go to a place that's only about the food.
Pros: great wine list, great view, good piano
Cons: overpriced, because, they can be

Food was average, not any better than any other fie restaurant in town. The only plus that Canlis offers is their spectacular view, but only parties of 4 or more are seated at window/view tables so don't plan to have a romantic view for two!
Pros: View, Decor
Cons: Seating Layout, Overpriced
