Strip District · $$$$ · No. 19 of 157 overall
The reliable big-night-out flagship. Polished and consistent for years. Not cutting-edge, but it rarely misses.
Order: Polished special-occasion dining
- 2One by Spork4.5
Friendship · $$$$ · No. 25 of 157 overall
Eighteen seats, one seating a night, and a James Beard-nominated chef working fermentation and preservation like a magician at a 275-dollar counter. It's the most ambitious cooking in the city right now. Book weeks out, surrender to the menu, and don't you dare ask for substitutions.
Order: The ever-changing ~10-course chef's-counter tasting

Mt. Washington · $$$$ · No. 27 of 157 overall
The skyline view does some of the work, but the kitchen holds up its end. You're partly paying for the window, and honestly that's fine.
Order: Tasting menu with the skyline in the window

Mt. Washington · $$$$ · No. 30 of 157 overall
Fresh fish and the city's best window seat. You're paying for the view as much as the plate. Fair trade for a special night.
Order: Fresh fish + the city's best window seat
