It was worth the $50 to watch Maya’s face as she discovered that the restaurant atop the needle was rotating. She loved it! She is still so jazzed about it after a long day downtown that she’s writing long letters on post cards.
What $50 you ask? Well, lunch in the Needle has a $20 minimum (gulp) so if you want enough to eat, then you must buy the entree. The kids pasta is shaped like the space needle, which was the dish’s saving grace, as the marinara sauce had no veggies other than tomato. And there were no meat balls. The spinich found under my salmon came with the stems, which I found very hard to chew. Tell me, who eats spinach stems?
Even though the food is mediocre, the molten chocolate cake is the BEST desert I’ve ever eaten!
