Lunch Menus

Talaris's cuisine is as inspired and varied as its surroundings. Whether you desire a casual barbecue on the spacious, outdoor deck or a gourmet dinner in the window-walled Pacific Dining Room, Talaris executive chef Bill Taylor and his culinary team will create a seattle dining experience specific to your needs.

On days when the conference center has fewer than 35 guests for lunch, a three-course plated meal of the chef’s choice will be served, including a vegetarian option.
