The cuisine at The George Restaurant is contemporary American with a focus on locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. We had done a foodie crawl all over Seattle throughout the day so we shared some lighter bites. The wedge salad, crisp French fries, salmon crudo, roasted tomatoes and feta, and the ricotta and nettle ravioli made it to our table and it was a delightful variety of food to share over a chilled bottle of bubbly rosé. The atmosphere and soft banquet made the perfect setting for long conversation while the sky changed color from dusk to dark through the large arched windows.

Whether you're a hotel guest visiting Seattle or a local resident looking for a top-tier dining destination in Seattle, The George Restaurant at Fairmont Olympic Hotel promises a lovely culinary experience.
