Roxane

While this place has a number of dishes at $17 and over, they also look like they have a fair number of pizza and salad and other selections for less - like fondue, mussels, quiche, pasta, etc. So let's check this place out, shall we?

Top of the Riverfront at the Millenium Hotel

Our next get-together falls during St. Louis Restaurant Week, so we're going to do something a little different. We've already made a reservation for 15 (we can expand this if needed) at the Top of the Riverfront restaurant downtown, and it's a 3 course meal for $25 plus tip and tax. Attire looks to be business casual if not a bit spiffier, and call them if you have questions about that.

Stef says a past highlight of dining here is that the bread is in the shape of the arch. How can you beat that?! With good company, of course! I highly recommend that you RSVP as soon as possible so we can alter the reservation. I don't think they'll be able to just squeeze one or two in as other places do.

After I sent out the initial email, Stef told me that I made an error and
also that I didn't state arguably the most exciting thing about the
restaurant. So, I present you with these additional pieces of
information, in the order listed above:

1) It is called "Downtown Restaurant Week" and not "St. Louis Restaurant
Week." This shouldn't sway anybody in either direction, but if it does
then please let me know - I'm curious.

2) The restaurant revolves. If you have a bad seat, it may become a good
seat. If you have a bad view (i.e. you're unable to see out any
windows), it may continue to be bad, but you can take comfort that
some people in our party will be enjoying an ever-changing landscape.
You may get lost on the way back from the restroom. You may get dizzy
as the restaurant revolves out of control and takes flight like a large
Aerobie(1) through the Arch and ends up caught in a tree at the casino
across the river where you will be compelled to gamble away your
fortune. Now isn't that exciting?!
