As it’s challenging to choose top restaurant in the world, we picked up this attractive topic to say the eye works the same as the mouth while eating and hanging out in the restaurant.
Here is the list without numbers, as they all have unique views:
The view: The 16-foot-high windows in this Mandarin Oriental Hotel’s restaurant, Asiate, offer views of Midtown Manhattan’s sleek vertical marvels and the leafy urban oasis of Central Park. From the elegant 35th-floor dining room, the buzz of the city recedes, leaving a glittering metropolis.
The food: Chef Toni Robertson, a native of Burma, brings subtle Asian flavors and classical French training to the menu, with entrees like black bass with stir-fried Asian vegetables and ginger-lemongrass infused consommé, as well as roasted duck breast with five-spiced miso glaze.
Tip: For a drink, a snack or afternoon tea, try the Mandarin Oriental’s 35th-floor Lobby Lounge, which also offers breathtaking views.
The view: Perched on the edge of Santorini’s volcanic crater in the village of Oia, Ambrosia’s terrace tables look out over the steel blue Aegean Sea, the rocky caldera rim, and a gentle rise of volcanic islands.
The food: Signature appetizers include baby calamari in pesto and ouzo along with tarts filled with caramelized onions, fresh tomatoes, goat cheese, and basil. Move on to lamb cutlets with a red grape and mint sauce or shrimp with grilled mango.
Tip: Outdoor seating is available April through October. Reserve terrace tables a month in advance.
Rosellinis, Ravello, Italy
The view: Terrace tables at Rosellinis—in the Palazzo Sasso—look out on the craggy cliffs and coves of the Amalfi Coast, where fishing boats dot the cerulean waters of the Mediterranean 1,000 feet below. If you want to sit inside (or can’t get a table outside), ask for a window seat or you won’t have a view. You’ll also find amazing views at the hotel’s less-acclaimed-but-still-wonderful Terrazza Belvedere.
The food: Michelin-two-star Rosellinis looks to local Mediterranean ingredients for a Southern Italian menu peppered with updated Neopolitan dishes such as crystallized amberjack fillet served with roasted artichoke and potato salad with anchovy sauce.
Tip: Rosellinis is open only for dinner, and only from mid-March through October. Reservations are accepted, but tables are first-come, first-served. Arrive early for a terrace table and daylight views.
Le Jules Verne, Paris
The view: From its perch on the Eiffel Tower’s second level, 410 feet above the ground, Le Jules Verne offers expansive views of the City of Light. Look out of bay windows over wide boulevards and slate gray rooftops at lunchtime, or go in the evening to see Paris’s twinkling lights.
The food: The menu reflects the revered culinary traditions of France, but celebrity chef Alain Ducasse’s team brings a modern touch to classic recipes. Sea bass is cooked in its caramelized juices with just a splash of cream added at the end to intensify the flavor and lighten the dish. The wine list is 100 percent French.
Tip: Le Jules Verne reservations go fast; you can book a maximum of 3 months in advance through the website.
Baan Rim Pa, Phuket, Thailand
The view: The crush of waves on the rocks below adds another sensory layer to romantic Baan Rim Pa, an open-air, two-story teak house on a cliff above a crescent of golden sand. The sun sets on boats bobbing against a backdrop of hills fading into the Andaman Sea.
The food: Panaeng Ped (duck curry with lychee) and Goong Sarong (prawns hand-wrapped in vermicelli and quickly fried) are highlights of the Royal Thai menu, which features recipes formerly served only in Thailand’s Grand Palace.
Tip: Don’t miss live jazz and blues in the piano bar, courtesy of American musician Tommy Doyle.
Felix, Hong Kong
The view: Sweeping views of Hong Kong’s dramatic cityscape captivate diners at this 28th-floor restaurant in the Peninsula Hotel, created by avant-garde designer Philippe Starck. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out on the city’s neon skyline, Victoria Harbour ships, and the bustling shopping district of Kowloon.
The food: The contemporary menu features fresh seasonal dishes such as tuna sashimi with chorizo and black truffle, cracker-crusted sea bass, and pancetta-wrapped lamb.
Tip: Felix provides a glamorous perch for Hong Kong’s nightly laser and light show at 8 p.m.
Eagle’s Eye Restaurant, British Columbia, Canada
The view: A 15-minute gondola ride lifts diners 7,700 feet above sea level to the timber-framed Eagle’s Eye Restaurant at the Kicking Horse Resort in Golden, British Columbia. From the dining room, more than 1,000 often snow-capped peaks in the Purcell, Selkirk, and Rocky Mountains zigzag along the horizon.
The food: Chef Alain Soret brings French flavors to the locally sourced beef, salmon, and game entrees served alongside British Columbian wines. Wild B.C. sockeye salmon with a maple-pine nut crust is topped with melted brie and served with whipped potatoes and fresh vegetables.
Tips: Fireside tables 24, 29, 36, and 37 are ideal for a romantic evening. In spring and late September, vivid contrasts of snow and foliage add to the panorama. The restaurant is open June through October and December through Easter.
Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, Tanzania
The view: The Ngorongoro Crater Lodge’s perch on the edge of the largest unbroken volcanic caldera in the world provides spectacular panoramas of the expanse of seasonally toasty brown or vibrant green grasses dotted with wildlife. Game on the crater floor—from wildebeest to big cats—is visible with binoculars, and animals roam freely on the property.
The food: Pan-African dishes like duck with kumquat and chili marmalade are served in the domed dining room.
Tips: Dining is included in the stay. Twice-daily game drives are offered.

The view and the food are very important, but there is something’s missing while you need to enjoy at the bottom of you heart; FRIENDS – Sometimes having a hot dog in a slum dog place besides your lovely friends, is worth much more than having food in the best restaurants alone.
