My girlfriend wanted to come here to watch the sunset for her birthday, and it turned out to be a great choice. Since it was the weekend, we had to wait in the lobby downstairs for about 15-20 minutes. Luckily, we made it up just in time to catch the sunset and take some amazing photos. We were also fortunate enough to find seats at the bar, but if you want guaranteed seating, it's definitely better to make a reservation in the main seating area. Overall Ratings Atmosphere - 5/5 Service - 5/5 Food - 5/5 Parking - Valet / Nearby Parking Atmosphere - The view is absolutely the star of the show. Watching the sunset over the city from this height creates an unforgettable experience, especially for a special occasion. The space itself feels upscale and lively without being overwhelming. Service - The service was excellent. Our bartender, Michael, made sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit. He was attentive, friendly, and added to the overall experience. My girlfriend especially appreciated the complimentary olives, which was a nice touch. What We Ordered - Old Fashioned (Very well balanced and smooth) Cucumber Martini (Refreshing and perfectly crafted) Final Thoughts - This was the perfect spot to celebrate a birthday. Between the stunning views, great drinks, and attentive service, it made for a memorable evening. I would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a great lounge experience in Philadelphia. read more

Overall food is mid but honestly you're there for the views. The elevator itself is an experience too so pay attention. Dress code is on the website. Food (7/10) - Mediocre food for a four seasons place. Found two thick bones in my sea bass and a thick branch that you can't chew in the veggies. Pasta was decent but nothing to rave about. Popular trout sushi is overrated - ratio of crispy rice and trout isn't right. Service (10/10) - top notch! Ambiance (10/10) - Romantic, relaxed. Beautiful 360 skyline view all around Philadelphia. We got there before sunset and got to enjoy all colors of the sky. Hope you get the window tables but it's not guaranteed. read more

This place is a spot. Located in the heart of Philadelphia inside the Four Seasons Hotel, it sits on the 60th floor with absolutely stunning views. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the service is truly top-notch. From check-in to our waiter, everything was seamless. Every staff member went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. The food was very good--we went for lunch, and I loved that brunch items were still available. There's also a large bar area, making it a great place to stop in just for drinks and the views. I can't wait to come back again! read more

This has to be one of the most beautiful restaurants I've ever been to. The view alone made this a 10/10. I got to celebrate my birthday here and every single thing we ate was so so good! The salmon rice cracker was especially good. The staff was also so lovely and gave us complimentary desserts! While there are items on the menu that are pricier, they also have a lot of more reasonable items like the pizza and burger! So don't be afraid to come here, it is worth it! And try to come right before the sun sets- you won't be disappointed! read more

This place was really above and beyond. Had breakfast here. Aside from the majestic views, the sound of the indoor waterfall, it is the service which brings this all together. Staff is incredibly apt at the mastery of service. Joey was phenomenal and made our breakfast a tier one experience. Ingredients are incredibly fresh and masterfully put together. Reservations are key and recommended. read more

Date night came correct. I loved this place! Sooo pretty, coolest elevator ride soooo high up that speaks to its name, and the Christmas decorations were stunning inside! We got such lovely photos. Service was wonderful. I couldn't even drink more than a couple sips of the espresso martini I ordered for him to try. Still not on the level of the one I first had in Toronto but cute Christmas tree etched on top! I have to convince him to stay at this hotel now! My first time experiencing Philly and this is a staple for sure. Go, enjoy!!! read more

We visited Sky High at night, and the experience was incredible from start to finish. The service stood out immediately--warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling rushed. Our server checked in often enough to make sure we had everything we needed, but still let us enjoy the atmosphere. And *what* an atmosphere. The nighttime view of downtown Philly is absolutely stunning--floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the city lights, making it the perfect spot for a special night out or just a memorable treat. We finished with their apple pie, and it was one of the highlights of the evening. Buttery, warm, and beautifully balanced--and if you go, do yourself a favor and add an extra scoop of ice cream. It takes the whole thing over the top. Highly recommend Sky High for great service, incredible views, and a dessert you won't forget. read more

Skyhigh - Beautiful - Bars Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

3.5 stars, but rounding up since I can't give half-stars. Service is great, but I'd expect no less for the crazy expensive prices. Atmosphere is also great, 60th floor of the Four Seasons has fantastic views of the city. The prices are so expensive for what you get. Small portions but good food. Also good craft cocktails, but I feel like Philly has multiple speakeasies with better tasting cocktails than here, for the prices. Overall, come for the exclusivity and views. Go elsewhere for best value for your money. read more

Came here to celebrate my birthday this year and we are so glad we did! I was here once before for drinks and my boyfriend was never here. We were seated at a window and I was extra happy about that! The views of our beautiful city are wonderful everywhere we looked! Our view at dinner was of south Philadelphia: liberty place, the Delaware River, stadiums, etc. The service was impeccable! Matt waited on us and he was wonderful! Talked to us, found out what we were celebrating, provided his knowledge of whatever we were eating or drinking. Top notch! Can't wait to go back to celebrate something else! read more

Very cool venue high above the city. Nice views if it's not cloudy. You will not be rushed and can have a relaxing experience. For me the food was only ok. The Baratta with bread was a good appetizer. I am told the calamari was very good. The wagu cheesesteak spring roll was only ok. Personally I think it a gimmick. Not enough wagu to enjoy then treat it like cheap meat and cover it with cheese. It was fine but not great. The tenderloin was good, I did not appreciate the sweet pea mousse. It was decided that the ragu was only ok. Bland flavor and the pasta was undercooked. read more

Skyhigh is a great place to celebrate when you feel like having a view "over" William Penn. Luckily, we were blessed with clear skies and two birthdays. We got the calamari and the kale salad for starters - both good. Felt a bit rushed as our server "Erica," asked us for apps and entrees to be ordered at one time. . . hmmm? We could see that the bar area is a popular spot for after work cocktails. They offer a range of wines from $25 to much, much, more per glass. My fried chicken was perfect. The Black Seabass was tender, skin not for everyone. The bone in Ribeye (for 2) could feed a small family. The menu at Skyhigh could satisfy just about any palate. The almost 360 degree view is astounding and tough to top - pun intended. read more

The hotel bar is highly recommended. The service was excellent. The drinks were superb. We got the tropical old fashioned which was a interesting drink. It had a pineapple ice mold which was fun. Also got sparkling pomegranate which was good. The interior decor is beautiful - the mirrored ceiling, the holiday decorations were elegant and elaborate. Well done. I will be coming back. read more

This was my second time dining here and sadly it wasn't as good as the first time. Ambience and service 5/5. Value ehhhh lol, maybe 3/5. We asked about wine and thought we heard $69 or $89 a bottle and said sure lol - that ended up being per glass, the bottle was about $600 plus - lesson learned - MUST clarify prices at the four seasons lol. Some dishes were extraordinary. The steak was overcooked and cold. Almost not edible because of how chewy it was. When we informed the manager - they offered to warm it up - which we declined since it would have made it even chewier. For the Four season and how much we spent, we expected the dish to be replaced or at least removed from our bill. Neither was done which was unfortunate. read more

My original plans had me going to Rouge blocks away but due to the rain, I decided to stay local and go right back upstairs to try Skyhigh for lunch. Started off fortunate since there were four empty bar seats close to the wall so I was able to leave me luggage safely behind me yet out of the way of staff. It was busy around the rest of the bar. I was going to still go with a burger (Rouge, again) but since I would be on a cross-country flight, I decided to go lighter with their butternut squash soup ($18) and a side of fries ($12). Although I counted at least three people behind the bar, it was on the busier side customer-wise so even though they were running around non-stop, service was on the very slow side. The side I was sitting on wasn't empty for long, and those that came after me were waiting for a while as well. The presentation for the soup was nice and also the best part of this lunch. I really didn't care much for the fries (shocker) but I finished them off anyway. As expected, it took a while to get the bill, and a little more to get everything back. I will say the service-when you could get it-was pleasant. Skyhigh definitely has what it needs; from a great location high above the city, being in The Four Seasons, this venue has a lot going for them. I'll pass it off being the week after Christmas, even for a Monday but I do hope things will improve on a future visit. read more

My wife and I stopped by SkyHigh for drinks before dinner at Vernick Fish, and it was an excellent choice. It was our first proper night out in months with very young kids, and the experience felt genuinely special. This review is for the upper-level bar. We visited once in 2021, and what impressed me most this time is how well SkyHigh has aged. Many modern, design-forward venues look great at first but start to feel tired over time. SkyHigh still feels fresh, polished, and transportive without trying too hard. From the warm lobby welcome to the dramatic elevator ride up, the experience is thoughtfully executed. The views are outstanding, overlooking Philadelphia, the Schuylkill River, and the Art Museum. By 6:30 pm, the bar was already lively. Seating is first-come, first-served, with roughly 20 bar seats plus a standing area, and the turnover kept the energy moving well. They also serve food, though we didn't eat. The ambiance really stands out. The lighting and music felt loungey and upbeat, more Mykonos or Miami Beach than a typical hotel bar. It's energetic but still comfortable for conversation, no need to fill the air. The crowd was stylish but not ostentatious. We had three spicy margaritas, and with tip, the bill came to $91, expensive but expected for a venue of this caliber. The bartender was friendly, professional, skilled, and approachable. I'm often mixed on hotel bars, but SkyHigh really works. It captures a sophisticated side of Philadelphia while remaining tasteful and grounded. A great sunset spot, ideal for entertaining visitors, and somewhere we look forward to returning. Thank you! read more

From the moment you step into the hotel the staff is friendly & helpful with guiding you to the bar. We visited just for drinks our last day in Philly and enjoyed the view, elevator ride and the beauty of the bar and all the florals in the lobby. I would definitely come back and make a reservation for dinner. They had rosemary popcorn and marinated olives as a bar snack and the bartenders were great! Loved our experience here and will definitely be back. read more

The food and the view was incredible. Yes, skyhigh is ridiculously expensive (maybe a little overpriced), but you are paying for the experience as well as the fantastic service.

I wish I could give this a better review as the ambiance is just so good - everything in the venue feels like you're in a James Bond movie, just in Philadelphia. I don't think there's a more luxurious feeling room, at least that is modern, that I've been to in Philadelphia, and really this rivals the luxury of a lot of dining establishments in NYC. While all of that is good they somehow have not so great food, and bad drinks. I don't know why, but the Ginger Margarita that is a JG staple at so many restaurants is just not hitting here. Every dish we ordered was sooooooo mid, we came for brunch, but tried both brunch foods and lunch foods. I really was hoping for something more, but really the draw is the view. Service was fine, just not spectacular either - if you want a good meal go downstairs to Vernick Fish, you can come up for a drink later. read more

We had a truly Zen experience at Sky High - it's got to be near the top of the list of the most unique restaurants in the city. What views. We had breakfast; it was quiet, tranquil and with the sun shining over the city into the restaurant, we were completely absorbed into the moment. I ordered the Feta cheese-Spinach omelette and my partner ordered the Brioche French Toast. She also ordered the Green Juice, which is a combination of spinach, cucumber, kale, apple, lemon and ginger. It had a 'healthy' flavor! I was underwhelmed by my omelette - I was quite surprised. I was recently in New York, and had an omelette at Balthazar - it was memorable - fluffy, full of feta, mushrooms, onions and spinach. The omelette by JG was a very thin egg rolled around such a small amount of spinach and an even smaller amount of feta. It was flavorless to a large degree - I'm still in disbelief. Fortunately, I was quickly brought out of my funk when my friend offered to share her French Toast, it was quite a large portion, and she sympathized with me after tasting the omelette. Is it the best French Toast you've ever had - maybe. It ranks near the top of my list. It's not challah, which has its own unique texture and flavor, it's brioche.....a very, very thick cut of brioche. Its light and perfectly cooked interior is complimented by a slightly crunchy exterior. It's brioche you've never had before. How JG was able to create such a dish piqued my curiosity. I'm guessing it's baked - in order to get such a supple, yet firm interior with such a large piece of brioche. Excellent. We had the bacon as a side - which crisp and very tasty. Crispy potatoes came with my omelette - they were delicious! Sky High should be on everyone's bucket list - it was remarkable. I'll guarantee one thing, you'll never forget it. read more

JG Skyhigh has always been an eclectic vibe and it is a must treat yourself experience. Located on the 60th floor of the Four Seasons in Philadelphia, the views are breathtaking and you're immediately transported from your everyday hustle and bustle to relaxation in brilliant luxury. My friends and I njoy ordering various items and sharing for a well rounded taste experience, we were not disappointed. Today we njoyed the wagyu cheesesteak spring roll, calamari, black truffle and fontina cheese pizza, bacon cheeseburger, roasted cod with bok choy and the fried chicken with wild rice & a butter habanero sauce. On Sunday's they offer a Brunch Buffet that we will check out next! Vienna and Lenny provided great service! The service staff work as a team and there were different people coming to the table which caused confusion multiple times. All in all, it was a wonderful experience. Cheers read more

The only reason this place has 2 star is because of the desert. The chocolate cake was so good I was licking at the plate. However, everything else was absurdly awful. The service was slow, the flavor of the sea bass I had was overpowered by the salad bowl of herbs they put in the entree. Every appetizer was just flavorless and the calamari tasted frozen. The egg toast with caviar was underwhelming, every other ingredient seems to overshadow the delicate taste of the caviar. For 68$ a piece, you want the caviar to be the star, not an afterthought. My wife's steak was chewy and was not pleasant, but the sauce was fantastic. I will leave on a good note and say the views were breathtaking, but 400$, this was a giant let down.... read more

It was a great first time experience. It is located in on the 60th floor of the four seasons hotel building. You are able to observe over the entire city while on the elevator. I was able to order a burger and it comes with french fries with a side of mashed potatoes and my girlfriend (whose birthday we were celebrating) ordered salmon. The food was delicious. You also have the option to split checks. Make sure to notify the waiter/waitress at the beginning of your meal.

Beautiful view of Philly. There's a glass elevator so you can see the view on the way up and down. Beautiful flowers as you enter the lobby. The restaurant has an upstairs with a bar and lounge area and downstairs with lounge and tables around the perimeter. We didn't have a reservation but a waiter said we could sit at one of the tables in the downstairs lounge. I tried the strawberry martini. It was a bit sweet for my taste but refreshing. We didn't order any food but she gave us a bowl of herbed popcorn. View was incredible! read more

Ambiance: JG Skyhigh is stunning to say the least! the view from our seating was amazing and the restaurant itself is so upscale! Service: The service was very professional and efficient. Perfect for my birthday! My name was even on the menu! And the presentation for each dish was carefully thought out! Food: But the food did disappoint me a bit which is why I can only give them a 3. Although everything looked aesthetically pleasing the taste was so acquired and the textures were so different I didn't really like much and we did the chefs tasting. The only thing I enjoyed was the caviar and the desserts. I would love to come back and try other items on the menu! Maybe I'll have a different opinion. R read more

Located adjacent to the reception area of the Four Seasons Hotel on the 60th floor of the Comcast Technology Center, JG SkyHigh Lounge & Restaurant is the less formal (and less expensive) sibling of Jean-Georges Philadelphia, which lies just a floor below. Featuring breakfast, weekend brunch, and all-day dining, SkyHigh showcases a more casual side to Chef Vongerichten's innovative cuisine. Especially in the evening, the bar attracts a younger boisterous crowd of tipplers, while the all-day menu caters to a contrastive coalescence of local city dwellers, hotel guests, curious tourists, and assorted gadflies in search of the latest gastronomic thrill ride... All fetchingly garbed, I might add, in everything from designer sartorial finery to gimme caps, shorts, and sneakers. The menu, which has changed somewhat since my several visits, still runs the gamut. There's a little something for everyone - including a fabulously delicious Cheddar Bacon Cheeseburger with creamy Russian dressing, yuzu pickles, and extraordinarily crispy French fries. There are a number of ways to start things off... Caviar, for instance, if your wallet is particularly flush. On the other hand, my companion and I highly recommend the Warm Asparagus, which we have thoroughly enjoyed on several occasions. Garnished with summer mushrooms and sprinkling of herbs, the perfectly prepared spears arrive at table swimming in an irresistible vegetable vinaigrette. The Wagyu Cheese Steak Spring Roll also has a great deal to offer... as does the Burrata. And, most recently, the Guacamole accompanied by Sungold tomato salsa and crunchy tortillas proved to be a light and eminently sharable prelude. Recently sampled entrees included a fabulous Parmesan Crusted Organic Chicken with artichokes and lemon-basil sauce, Shrimp and Mushroom Risotto, Roasted Salmon companioned by corn/scallion succotash and lime-corn broth, and an excellent vegetarian option, Artichoke Tagine. Dessert possibilities range from a Citrus Pavlova to several decadent sundaes - Salted Caramel, Strawberry - to Chocolate Layer Cake to the Cookie Plate. For a special treat, do what we did... Order a sundae to share and also the Cookie Plate to go with it. SkyHigh also serves up an intriguing collection of cocktails as well as an eclectic selection of wines by the glass. The view, of course, is spectacular... Nothing quite stimulates the appetite like gazing down upon the City of Brotherly Love from Mt. Olympus. read more

Finally made it to my dinner at Sky High last night. The restaurant on top of the Four Seasons. The place is BEAUTIFUL! I had the BEST cucumber martini I've ever had there. For apps we had the burrata and cheesesteak eggroll. The eggroll was literally enough for one person, but very good. Burrata is always a hitter, can't really mess it up. For our entrees my friend ordered the seabass, she said it was good. I ordered the rigatoni with veal and beef meatballs. That was decent too. Dessert...I got two because I couldn't decide. Apple pie, very good. Almond cake was very dry. It looked like cornbread as dry as it was. I had to send it back. Overall food was good, but nothing to write home to mom about. If I came back it would be more for the vibes versus the actual food. Our server, Damier, was awesome and very sweet. read more

If you don't mind paying over a $100 for views, during brunch, this beautiful restaurant is for you! Besides that, my experience was terrible. Starting off from making a large group reservation, was a pain. It was if no one wanted to answer the phone and being transferred a gajillion times. Just to be told they'll reach back out, then again more phone calls and email. Mind you, I called a month in advance and didn't secure our spot until a couple days before the event! Next, finally the restaurant experience. Not a very pleasant check-in. It was as if we had to do everything ourselves. Host, wait staff, everything was just soooo slow. They took forever for everything and the restaurant was not packed. Food was mediocre. Bread tasted stale. Mimosa cart was extra and the price is priced per glasses, not bottomless. I would probably only come back to the bar for the views. read more

We had lunch yesterday at 11:30am and thought the place had beautiful views and clean. However, my shrimp burger was so salty and asked no salt on fries and it was heavily salted when arrived. I told the server that the shrimp burger was so salty which I switched to the bacon cheeseburger which was better. However the place was expensive for the quality of food that you get (burger $28). Overall was disappointed with the food but the view was amazing. As tourists from California, we will not return and would recommend elsewhere for lunch. read more
