We had an incredible evening here. The service is top notch. Our waiter, Mack, knew everything about every item on the menu, and described them perfectly. We never felt rushed, even though we asked a lot of questions. The support staff was very stealthy at times, when I would realize I had new silverware but never saw them bring it. The entire staff are friendly and outgoing, and they all looked happy. The food was superb, and every dish was as beautiful as it was delicious. While the portions look small, all four of us were stuffed when we left, and we didn't have the salad. The sommelier was excellent, bringing us several different samples to try before we made a decision. The view is also top notch. It is absolutely a huge splurge and not something we would do often, but it's a great experience for a special occasion.

Walking into Canlis to the sound of a live pianist is a special moment that is all too rare these days. I was lucky enough to dine in the private room as part of a work event. It has floor to ceiling windows offering an incredible view over Lake Union and Gas Works Park. We started with the Endive Salad and I chose the Beef Short Rib. Both were beautifully prepared, balanced and flavoursome. The crème brûlée was equally delicious. The real standout to me was the impeccable service. Our room had a host who was exceptional - warm, friendly and attentive - supported by plenty of staff who kept drinks topped up and ensured everything was perfect. I can’t wait to return with family - this place is truly special.

An unforgettable dining experience! Canlis combines world-class cuisine with a breathtaking view over Lake Union and the city skyline. Every course was beautifully prepared and full of creative flavors, and the service was impeccable — warm, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. Perfect for celebrating something special or just treating yourself to an extraordinary evening in Seattle:)

One of the Finest Dining Experiences ever. From the beginning, the valets, to the friendly hostesses, to the server to the management was absolutely impeccable. The food was not only incredibly tasty, but presentation was beautiful. The service really stood out. Overall, a top notch dining experience.

Incredible food and view and wine but even better staff. Our Sherpa made the night magical explaining every dish and the design. She made everything special. I will only give her middle name of rose as otherwise every one will want her as your experience guide. Great family stories as you dine. Mark Canlis sets a tone of excellence. And ask about Barbie stories for inspiration. Great place
