We came in to celebrate my mom‘s 70th birthday and we had just an exceptional time. The food as always is incredible but the service really did it for us. Everybody who encountered us was so kind and informative. The pace of the dinner was exceptional and being able to watch the kitchen and staff work was like watching a well choreographed ballet.

Storied restaurants, from Canlis, the pinnacle of Pacific Northwestern fine-dining, to chic modern hangouts like the Walrus and the Carpenter, prove Seattle’s range and prowess. And even as the city’s changed over the last decade, growing and evolving under a massive tech boom, its soul remains as vibrant and bold as ever.
