Where To See & Be Seen In Seattle - Seattle - The Infatuation
"This mid-century modern landmark is the only Seattle restaurant that’s both packed nightly and has a dress code, which means you can test the limits of that avant-garde black tie outfit. Enjoy the momentary alternate dimension where every evening feels like a gala benefit, complete with fine-dining tweezer food and pianist covers of Sabrina Carpenter tracks in the style of baroque. Anyone and everyone—and we like it that way A paper-thin glass of something clarified They used to release tables six months in advance, but that has changed to three months in advance, which makes booking here nearly impossible. For the best possible odds, log on right at midnight a quarter in advance to snatch a table. If you missed that initial window, check 48 hours in advance, as that’s when reservation deposits become non-refundable. If all else fails, part of the fun of Canlis is sitting at the bar to drink exceptional cocktails, eat snacks, and listen to the pianist. And since anyone can waltz in and do that, consider it as a backup plan." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, kayla sager riley
