The Rooftop by JG

You’ll find most food items you order astonishingly mediocre and overpriced at the ultra-expensive luxury rooftop atop the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, but Rooftop by JG (short for mononymous celebrity chef Jean-Georges) also boasts nearly 360-degree sunset views of the city that are absolutely perfect for special occasions—hence why it’s still on this list. More restaurant than bar, Rooftop by JG reserves the best seats in the house for diners, while walk-ins are consigned to the first-come, first-served bar and lounge area. When it comes to food, skip almost everything but the ginger marinated tuna tartare.
