Item Description
Here's what Seattle Met Magazine says about Canlis:
"Seattle’s most legendary restaurant, now going on 60, genuinely keeps getting better. Yes, the valet still magically remembers your car without a claim ticket. Yes, the waiters still ply the far frontiers of guest service. Yes, there’s that sweeping Lake Union view, that stone-hewn midcentury design—which, taken together, create the most sublime restaurant setting in the Pacific Northwest. And, yes, there’s still a Canlis at the helm—two, actually: brothers Mark and Brian, who trawl the floor, greeting regulars and welcoming newcomers just as their parents Chris and Alice did before them, and their grandfather, founder Peter Canlis, before that.
With Louis Armstrong crooning through the sound system, your table strategically oriented toward the view, your Scotch cocktail stiff and flawless, the wine list heavy in your hand (it’s a marvel, having earned for the last several years Wine Spectator ’s rare Grand Award)—even restrooms that were up for a Best Restroom in America award—you’re sumptuously nourished before your food hits the table.
When the food does arrive, it’ll be the best it’s been in years. New chef Jason Franey (from Manhattan’s Eleven Madison Park, which The New York Times just gave four stars) has retained and mastered the Canlis Salad, the steak tartare, the prime steaks—the man’s not suicidal—but brings new levity to the tasting menu and the specials, where a slice of grilled watermelon might show up with greens and goat cheese and frisky speckles of balsamic.
Probably not how old Peter would’ve done it. Better."
