One of the best restaurants on the West Coast, Canlis a place for special memories to be made. Caleb and I went there the first time for my birthday after our daughter was born. She was only 6 weeks old and I tearfully left her for 2 hours with a good friend. The evening was amazing and I adored every minute of it. It didn’t work out to go again this year for my birthday but my hubby had been trying to find a special time to just go for drinks and light food and sit in the bar. Last Saturday night was the perfect night, we attended a wedding (re-commitment ceremony where I couldn’t eat anything) so then we decided to go out for food afterward. Caleb had the special surprise in mind as we were already all decked out in our fancy clothes. It is amazing, very expensive and totally worth it once a year if you are a food lover!
I had their lemon drop martini (amazing), prawns, and arugula salad (that comes with gilled melon!). I let them know I was gluten-free and vegan (minus seafood) and they just substituted where needed. If you do go for a romantic night out and need a gluten-free/vegan full meal just call ahead and they can specially design you a meal that will work for you! Happy Eating!
Oh – their bar is absolutely amazing! Order anything/everything and enjoy their color changing drink and super fun drink list. Let the bar tender know you are gluten-free!
