The Carlile Room is a New American restaurant in Seattle, in the U.S. state of Washington.[1][2]

Description

The Carlile Room is a bar and restaurant in Downtown Seattle, inspired by and named after American singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile.[3][4] Thrillist has described the business as a "retro-themed" New American restaurant with an "eclectic" selection of small plates of meats and vegetables sourced locally, such as broccoli flowers, salmon, and venison leg.[5] Seattle Metropolitan has described the establishment as a "high-spirited and casual spot across from the Paramount, where the menu exalts plants in genuinely game-changing ways". The menu has included bulgur, peach, pomegranate, and pistachio-stuffed eggplant, as well as chickpea-fava fritters with peach pickles, herb sprigs, and nuts.[6]

History

The restaurant opened in July 2015.[7][8] In early 2016, Tom Douglas replaced tipping with automatic twenty percent service charges.[9]

Reception

Seattle Metropolitan has called Carlile "Tom Douglas's most creative concept yet" and said, "Fun booze, fun decor—fun, period."[6] Donald Olson of Frommer's rated the restaurant two out of three stars.[10] Providence Cicero of The Seattle Times rated Carlile three stars.[11]
