SkyCity at the Needle

Frommer's Review

Both the restaurant and the prices are sky high at this revolving restaurant, located just below the observation deck at the top of Seattle's famous Space Needle. However, because you don't have to pay extra for the elevator ride if you dine here, the charges start to seem a little bit more in line with those at other Seattle splurge restaurants. Okay, so maybe you can get better food elsewhere, and maybe you can dine with a view at other Seattle restaurants, but you won't get as spectacular a panorama anywhere else. The menu offers some distinctly Northwestern flavor combinations, but still has plenty of familiar fare: Simply prepared steaks and seafood make up the bulk of the offerings, with a couple of vegetarian options thrown in. I recommend coming here for lunch; the menu includes some of the same dishes, prices are considerably more reasonable, and the views, encompassing the city skyline, Mount Rainier, and the Olympic Mountains, are unsurpassed.
