MAD MANOR began with a wild and winding 12-minute theatrical dance and performance featuring an all-Canlis cast of service staff. Keep swiping for stories of our favorite moments!

Choreographed and lead by Canlis host and backserver Brooke Wilson, the ad-hoc, volunteer dance troop practiced for 6 weeks at an off-site studio to prepare for the opening.
The upper dining room, aka “the dance floor”, was packed with quite possibly the most chaotic set of costumes we’ve seen to date. From a guy walking around with a real chainsaw to elaborate prosthetics and wigs as big as a Komondor.
Canlis has had the same chairs since 1950 and at any given time there’s a dozen or so in complete reconstruction and repair. We hung each of them throughout the dining room. Or was it the work of a giant spider? 🕷️
Our Penthouse was transformed into a curtained masquerade ball where guests waited in line to be outfitted with masks and then were greeted by a string quartet and crystal chandeliers. 🎻
Lamp ladies roamed the Penthouse, passing small bites and quite literally putting out fires.
Our bar team handed hundreds of cocktails through masked curtains framed into a wall we built over the Penthouse bar. Some might say hospitality is a lot about the non-verbal communication ✌️
Our 100ft+ Lebanese Cedar has grown gigantic since being planted in the 50’s, but it made a particularly dramatic entrance for MAD MANOR, with 40’ branches crashing through our glass walls overlooking Lake Union.
Below the tree branches (cut from Mark’s backyard) was a giant table overflowing with dozens of delicious sweet and savory bites from our chef team. Have you ever hit the dance floor with an apple pie in one hand and ribs in the other? How about with a porchetta, pate en croute, popcorn balls, or some beef cheek hand pies?
The incredibly disorienting @benseidman dazzled us with over a dozen magic shows in our Executive Room and freshly converted library study.
The entrancing mystic @divinehandjim had some guests in tears in their eyes as he performed individual and intimate palm readings in our Cache room.

MAD MANOR’s photo booth swallowed guests whole: through a giant funhouse mouth and down a 20-foot, pitch-black hallway built straight through the dining room.
At the end, a tiny CRT TV/VCR issued posing instructions between flashes of Peter Canlis, Ivar Haglund, Gene Wilder, and the lady in the radiator from Eraserhead. Nathan (@hypoglow.photo) lurked behind a hole in the wall, photographing our victims with a blinding flash. Then, a fond farewell from the screen: “GOOD BYE.”
Here are a few of our favorites.

This week we’re inviting anyone wanting to win free MAD MANOR tickets to walk up to our Maître d’ during service hours tomorrow through Saturday dressed in your best Halloween costume.
We’ll announce daily winners the next day based on wow-factor, creativity, and commitment. Winners receive two free tickets for MAD MANOR on October 31st!
No dinner reservation required! (in fact, dress code for diners is still enforced…so please don’t confuse the two). Contestants must show up in person and check in with our host team or Maître d’ during business hours. Contestants must be 21 or older.

When the inside’s getting decked out for, not one but two, weddings, we take our meeting outside!
📸 by @hypoglow.photo
This time we talked about how we’re taking shape as a team and some fun ways to serve tonight’s guests.
This was our last meeting outside for the season, and a very joyful one: we celebrated several well-earned promotions, planned for the Fall season ahead…
and oh… we might have spilled the beans on a pretty big event we’re announcing later this week 🦇
