The 38 Best Restaurants in Seattle | Eater Seattle

"Few restaurants in Seattle transport you out of your everyday life the way the Corson Building does. Part of that is the setting — it’s an owld stone cottage sparsely but elegantly decorated, with a garden and large patio that’s heated in colder months. You could be in New Orleans, you could be on a past-its-prime Italian estate; you’re definitely not in Seattle. The food from co-owner Emily Crawford Dann lives up to the surroundings. The ever-changing menu (mostly prix fixe, though you can get a la carte meals here on Thursdays) highlights seasonal vegetables while always having enough meat to satisfy carnivores. Main courses like scallops in brown butter and walnut sauce are sensational, but you can also trust the Corson Building to create unique, perfectly balanced salads. Come here if you love to be surprised and delighted. Good for: Romantic evenings." - Harry Cheadle
