SkyHigh, Pennsylvania

Situated on the 60th floor of the Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia, SkyHigh is a gorgeous restaurant surrounded by glass and filled with bright natural light. The cuisine, developed by Chef partner Jean-Georges Vongerichten, tastes even better when you take in the views of the city.

La Mer, Hawaii

La Mer at the Halekulani Hotel in Oahu is the state's longest-running AAA Five Diamond and Forbes Five-Star restaurant.

Unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean mean that you'll get a gorgeous view of the sunset every night.

Dowling's at The Carlyle, New York

Located in one of New York City's most lauded historic hotels, Dowling's at The Carlyle evokes all of the glamour and charm of the 1930s and '40s.

Bazaar Mar, Nevada

There are plenty of decadent spaces on the Las Vegas Strip, but Bazaar Mar from The José Andrés Group is particularly stunning. The nearly 7,500 square-foot dining room features a massive mural of the seaside and a gorgeous tapas bar.

Bellini, Rhode Island

A Cipriani family restaurant will always be well designed and Bellini in Downtown Providence is no exception. You can expect to eat fine Italian cuisine in the warmly lit space—with the original Bellini cocktail in hand, obviously.

Dandelion, New York

Dandelion is located in Eastwind Oliverea Valley and offers a tranquil and cozy ambiance in the middle of upstate New York. The Scandinavian design veers away from IKEA and towards unique and authentic antiques.

Izzy's on the Peninsula is a family-owned steakhouse that's been a Bay Area staple since 1987. The space underwent an extensive renovation earlier this year, and now offers a modern and glamorous spin to the classic steakhouse aesthetic.
