I have no idea what the editorial review is referring to by "gorgeous scenery", but aside from occasional glimpses of Lake Washington, you'll spend the majority of the train ride looking at the back side of suburban buildings, parking lots, grafittied overpasses, and (especially nice) a junkyard devoted to discarded tires. If you want scenery, go to a park. The ride itself is not even particularly pleasant -- my car jolted around like an old truck on a potholed dirt road.
The food is acceptable, but really, if you're spending $60 on dinner in a city like Seattle, you can (and should) expect much more.
Bottom line, don't waste your time.
Pros: something different
Cons: passable food, lousy scenery, value
