Nathan Heishman
Fantastic experience! Chef Nathan was amazing to watch and speak with! His knowledge about food and how it is prepared was awesome to listen to. I highly recommended sitting up at the high counter to watch them cook and plate food. All of the Chefs seem to enjoy working a cooking as a team! I will definitely be back to try this place again!

This was a YOLO meal, must try! On the $$$$ side but worth every dollar ! Mostly locally fare, beautiful presentations, chef Nathan and his kitchen crew WOW are such pros! We sat at the counter and watched them prepare the food and that brings a certain level of appreciation to each plate. The duck was a big highlight for us, aged smoked, perfectly simple seasoned and an intricate preparation for a few bites of a heavenly bird! All the edible flowers for each plate was such a nice touch, pasta dishes all made from scratch. The starters were delicate and divine! Multiple desserts also was such a sweet surprise for the finale! They also offer a Japanese wagu beef for $50 per oz but I thought the duck was much better! Chef Nathan is an all star gifted chef ‍ !!

What an amazing evening! Such an explosion of unique flavors, one after the other, over the course of the night. The Halibut was absolute perfection. Highly recommend sitting at the chef’s counter to see true artistry on display! Will definitely return! Worth every penny.

I must say, the overall experience was beyond phenomenal! Staff, chefs, everybody was amazingly respectful and knowledgeable of what they’re doing and serving. Atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, mellow, nice jams, and the lighting is just right.

Enjoyed an incredible meal here from start to finish with perfectly paired wines. The menu is fun and delicious. The black cod with caviar course was one of many favorites, as was the duck course. Highly recommend sitting at the counter to watch the chefs in action. Like theater watching them cook and plate each dish. Deeply satisfying. Highly recommend Altura if you appreciate great food served in a warm and comfortable dining room. Can’t wait to come back on our next visit.

I was brought here by a family member and I had no clue what I was walking into or what we would be eating. I’m a huge foodie and love to try new fun things and have a very open tasteful palate. I was amazed with every pairing of food and wine and the incredible knowledge of the house sommelier. I would definitely go back and try it again with a different menu it was a memorable experience and super fun to be blown away by each dish. Definitely Michelin star or James Beard worthy. I highly recommend Altura for a fun and unique fine dining experience you’ll never forget

Luxurious and exquisite Italian dining experience that’s perfect for the special day. Reservation only. Each course is as beautiful as artwork, and service is great. The server would tell you ingredients in every dish and customize for you if any allergy condition. Each food bite is very experimental and unique, I’ve tasted some good combinations and also some not so agreeing. But as a fair note, it’s not a bad experience overall. Price is really high though, i would give a $$$$$$ rating on Google review if I can.

Enjoyed a 3 hour long feast paired with their wonderful zero proof / non alcoholic drinks pairing. It’s pricey, but definitely a top choice for fine dining in Seattle. I recommend having a light lunch on the day you come coz you will end up really stuffed after eating 10+ courses over 3 hours.

This is my first chef’s tasting experience for Italian restaurant and it’s just perfect!!! Every course is full of surprise and richness in flavors. The freshness of ingredients, cooking skills, and seasoning and presentation are all combined together and gives such a wonderful experience. All the seafood and meat and vegetables are perfectly seasoned for me, and the only dishes that I don’t like are sorbet with some herbs or fermented grape which are quite strong taste… It is roughly 3 hours but feels really really satisfied like watching a chef show. Strong recommend!
