Haven’t we heard people say, the restaurant had great ambience and good food? It automatically registers an observation though; restaurants are meant to have more than just good food.

So, here we are, today we are going to list out a few gorgeous restaurants with an extraordinary view that will sweep you off your feet the first time you set foot at the place. Food comes much later!
