Yes I make a 6-digit salary and yes I spend relatively freely. However there is a point where a meal that costs several hundred dollars for friends and family should be considered exceptional. I think the price exceeds the exceptional rating while the food and atmosphere merely meets it. I heard that this restaurant was one of the best in the US and definitely one of the best in Seattle. I agree. But is it worth the excessive pricing? I am still out on that one. I didn't feel I was ripped off, just let down. I have eaten at some of the world's finest restaurants and the overall experience for most is worth every penny. This one just seemed to miss the mark. I don't know if I would add something to the atmosphere or merely lower the price to put the experience on par. I would probably own my own restaurant if I knew the perfect mix. Try Wild Ginger yourself, but expect to roll through some serious green. Maybe it will be perfect for you and worth the experience, but maybe you can figure out what is missing from making it a GREAT dining encounter versus merely a good one with great food.
