If you have a car available, then you can expand the area:

I'm sure there are more sight seeing things downtown that I'm forgetting. As for places to eat, if you like steak, The Metropolitan Grill is my favorite. http://www.themetropolitangrill.com/ Not cheap, but that is what expense accounts are for, right?

There is also El Gaucho. I've not been to the one in Seattle, but the one in Portland has never disappointed me. http://www.elgaucho.com/elgaucho/ There is also the usual steak chains like Ruth's Chris and Morton's.

Other great food locations downtown:
Wild Ginger (Thai) - http://www.wildginger.net/
McCormick & Schmick's - seafood
Chandler's Crabhouse - seafood
Ray's Boathouse in Ballard - seafood
