    Gene and his team provided with excellent service. Very attentive yet not intrusive. Filet mignon and halibut entrees were superb. Green goddess salad and crab chowder were also excellent. Loved my cocktail. Appreciated them celebrating our 25th anniversary with a complimentary dessert and champagne toast! Will definitely return and recommend to others!

    Ronald, our server, friendly and made great recommendations for what to order. The food was amazing, especially the Dungeness crab chowder and the braised Dino short rib.

    Beautiful environment and scenery. Food was fine. Had requested a celebration and a birthday when making reservations that never got translated. But would come back again.

    From the moment you step into Charlotte, you’re wrapped in a warmth that feels more like dining at a dear friend’s home than a traditional fine dining experience. The atmosphere leans into connection—elegant yet unpretentious—anchored by a staff whose hospitality is so sincere, it rivals any service I’ve encountered, even in cities known for it. The design strikes a graceful balance between modern sophistication and timeless charm. Art deco lines meet classic textures: sharp geometry softened by carpet inlays and fresh florals that draw the eye through the space. It’s not a room that demands attention—it earns it, quietly. What truly sets Charlotte apart is how it situates you within the city skyline, not looking up at it, perched on a nest, for the evening. Encircled by floor-to-ceiling windows, we dined with Seattle. At 7 p.m, spring’s golden hour washed the space in hues of apricot and amber—echoed by the décor: light wood, warm beige, and soft whites. It was a living painting of the skyline and sunset, best enjoyed from the comfort of your seat. The menu nods to refinement without pretension. Their seared scallops, foie gras, and steak were all beautifully prepared. The scallops stood out: crisp-edged and buttery inside. Plating was elegant but never fussy—every dish felt thoughtfully made, but approachable. Special thanks to Daniel, whose wit, warmth, and care turned a memorable meal into something unforgettable. He doesn’t just serve—he hosts in the truest sense. Charlotte is lucky to have him, and my experience is forever unforgettable because of his excellence service and pride in his work. Whether you’re staying at the Lotte or marking a special occasion, Charlotte is a crown jewel in Seattle’s dining scene. Come for the view, stay for the flavors, and leave feeling like part of something special.
