Great spot for a vibe, a drink and apps! Came here for a pre-dinner drink and appetizer - I was tempted to cancel my dinner reservation and stay here! The ambiance is of course 10/10. The most amazing views of the city. The food is what really blew me away! My boyfriend and I shared the waygu spring rolls and the crispy sea trout sushi - get them both!!! Better than I was anticipating, the flavor is amazing! The kitchen knows what they are doing. Can't wait to come back for dinner! read more

Came here for my birthday. On the reservation, we did mention it was for a birthday, but nothing was done by the restaurant to commemorate the occasion. The view was amazing and so was the setting of the interior. Service: 3/5 It was okay, kind of disappointed for fine dining. Coats were not taken when we arrived and had to go back after we were seated at our table to hand them our coats. Our waitress was barely there to check on us. We also had a birthday cake that we were planning to cut after our meal, but we were told that there is a charge of $10 per person to cut the cake. We also had told the receptionist during check-in that there was a cake, but we were only told of the fee once we finished our meal. I am aware that there are charges for bottles since there is a liquor license but this was the first time I heard of a cake-cutting fee. It did not feel like there was anything special during the visit. I know not all restaurants offer birthday deals, but it never hurts to make the guest feel special during their visit Food: We came here for lunch since that was the only reservation available. We got spaghetti and the yuzu burger. Did not taste the yuzu within the burger, but in all, it did taste good. And considering the price for a fine dining restaurant, it was reasonable. The dinner menu did look more appealing. read more

Went for Xmas Eve dinner...Food is ordinary at best....View , elevator and atmosphere are excellent. My drinks were average and boring ...

The views are gorgeous and I think they're worth paying for. The quality of the food was also stellar and the expansive drink menu was impressive. I enjoyed my time there but thought service at the check-in area left much to be desired. For starters, the woman who greeted me was cold and snobby about my not having a reservation, despite it being 2pm on a Tuesday, hardly peak time. There was plenty of space at the window to enjoy the great view, but she not only passed on my request to another woman - didn't say goodbye, just left me - but the other woman insisted on my sitting next to a family from abroad who were taking a FaceTime call on speakerphone. Not cool. I asked the waiter to be reseated and was put in a much better spot, but come on - the place was 70% empty. No need for this kind of snobbery! The truffle pizza was delicious and the mockail I ordered was great as well. I'll be back but next time, I'll have my staff call ahead and make a reservation so that when I get off my Rolls Royce it will be a seamless transition to the table I deserve. Just kidding - but it feels like that's what it takes to get a good table here. read more

Yeah this restaurant is an example of a restaurant with great views done right. If you've seen my previous review of The Grandview in San Jose, you know I think restaurants with a view are overrated. I'm just in it for the food, and the food at JG SkyHigh is great. The food is very good here. Apps: Caviar sandwiches were super savory and tasty, and the truffle pizza was phenomenal: comparable to fancy Italian restaurants I've been to. Mains: Steak was nice and tender, so was the chicken. My pasta was hearty and truly hit the spot. Dessert: The dessert here is not to be underestimated. It's arguably better than the mains tbh. Really tasty cookies and cakes. Highly recommended. Fantastic service. Our waiter, whose name evades me right now, was probably the best waiter I had during my east coast trip. He was fun, witty, and super friendly throughout the meal. Also, he noticed that my brother's steak was a little overdone, and took the initiative to approach us and offer a new steak. Very attentive and overall remarkable service. The prices here were surprisingly fair. I was expecting something exorbitant given that we were on the 60th floor of the Four Seasons Hotel, but the prices are in line with other mid-range restaurants that I've been to. $20-$30 for a main, that's like eating out at Downtown Campbell or any Italian restaurant in the Bay. I don't need to write about the views. That's not what I'm into, but I'll admit that they were pretty nice. You are eating on the 60th floor of a skyscraper after all. The only bad thing that I have to say about JG SkyHigh is that their menu is small. Looking back, JG SkyHigh is a great restaurant to go to for special occasions. It has tasty food and fantastic views to wow whoever you're eating with. read more

I visited SkyHigh with a friend who was taking me out for a birthday dinner. We were both running late for our weeknight reservation, and the front desk was very accommodating towards us. The gorgeous city view was the first thing to catch my attention when I arrived. The ceiling and walls are made up of many clear glass windows to experience a great view from the 60th floor. The ambiance within the restaurant is also very elegant. Like many rooftop lounges, the menu is pretty limited. Our server gave us some helpful input before we ordered our food. My friend and I ordered a fancy ginger ale since neither of us drink. We ordered two flatbreads and an entree to share. The Tomato, Mozzarella, and Basil flatbread was pretty average compared to others I've had. The Honeynut Squash and Three Cheeses flatbread was more unique. I was skeptical of the squash being shredded on top of the flatbread, but both of us really enjoyed it. We both found our main entree of Fried Chicken disappointing. Both the breading and meat of the chicken lacked major flavor. The breading also didn't stick to the chicken well. The wild rice also lacked much flavor at all. The Habenero Hot Sauce Butter was delicious and helped save the bland parts of the meal. I had a great experience here, mostly due to the venue and ambiance. Food was just OK, and service was very slow and inconsistent for a restaurant of SkyHigh's caliber. I'd still recommend this spot for its ambiance and views, since I haven't found anything else close to it in the city. read more

Overall: great GREAT view, came here a little before sunset and was able to see sunset and night view, food was of course amazing, rigatoni is a must try, appetizers were all delicious, and the drinks tasted so good and was very strong. Ordered: (Apps) :) cheesesteak egg rolls: taste like a cheesesteak egg roll, but wasn't mind blowing good :D Chargrilled octopus: it was sooo soft and tender to the bite, chargrilled flavor, my fav app :) crispy rice salmon: not a big fan of this, still delicious but the rice was a lil too hard compared to other crispy rice sashimis I've tried (Dinner) :) black truffle pizza: lots of truffle flavor, but it taste like what it's called, prob would not order again :D rigatoni w/ Meatballs: this was my Fav!! One of the best rigatonis I've had in the city. Meatballs were full of flavor and cooked perfectly. (Dessert) :) Chocolate cake was a little too sweet for me, but I also don't have a sweet tooth. Chocolate was definitely quality though. :) strawberry cream(?) this was a special of the night, the crispy cream was so surprisingly and light, definitely one of the top desserts I've had Service: very friendly Directions to get into the building: someone will be with you every step of the way to guide you to the top. Someone will direct u to the elevator at the entrance of the building and once you exit the elevator, the hostesses on the left will seat you. read more

Delighting in a special date night at this establishment was a truly exceptional experience for both myself and my partner. The impeccable atmosphere and attentive service truly stood out. We were enchanted by the splendid Christmas decorations adorning the place, with lights dancing on mirrors and glass windows, creating a warm and festive ambiance. While the beverages were delightful and satisfying, the culinary offerings left something to be desired. Despite the restaurant's reputation for sophistication and elegance, the dishes did not meet our high expectations. The Fontina truffle pizza was acceptable, the fries were enjoyable, yet the Brussels sprouts seemed undercooked, and the salmon lacked that wow factor. However, the desserts managed to salvage the meal with their deliciousness. In conclusion, a return visit would be more for the overall experience and top-notch service rather than the culinary delights. read more

All I can say is that this place is pure MAGIC. Stopped in TWICE on our trip to Philly because the drinks and the views were just spectacular. We came in both times at night and sat at the bar. We were lucky enough to have Johnny as our bartender; he was just a gem! He suggested some items from the menu and even created some crafty new cocktails for us. Delicious; thank you, Johnny! The place is so beautiful and elegant inside, and the vibe is unreal. If I lived in Philly, this would definitely be one of my frequent spots. The view from the top is breathtaking, and you can see all of Philly. If you are ever in the area, this is a must-see! read more

The food was okay, not great. Portions were small for the price. Service was friendly but slow. It's an average spot--decent if you're nearby, but not worth a special trip. read more

Meh! You're paying for the view and that's it. Went for breakfast. The place is super snooty. Had eggs benedict, a so called sunny side up frittata and $8 toast. The bennies were ok, the frittata was basically three eggs sunny side up and backed. Someone should look up the definition of a frittata. But it was $26 for basically 3 eggs. A couple of blocks down from there is Sabrina's Cafe, way better breakfast for half the price. read more

The atmosphere was lovely, but the waiter appeared to be ill (feverish). Service was rushed, and the menu was disappointing. It was very corporate and lacked the sparkle and unique service I was used to. I hope the restaurant takes the time to retrain staff and remind them that coming to work sick benefits no one. read more

Absolutely Magnificent! I recently celebrated my anniversary here the ambiance is amazing, the food is delicious. I had the truffle and fontina pizza and the salmon with mashed potatoes and fennel. The wine and cocktails complimented the meal perfectly, the lychee cocktail was perfect as well as the wine options. We finished dinner and sat at the bar to watch the 76ers game. The vibe here was unmatched and service was great staff was friendly and attentive. i 10/10 Would recommend read more

DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU'RE BLACK. I had a reservation for 2 at 12:15pm and was a few minutes early. They placed us at the entrance, but there were four open tables by the windows. When we asked to be seated at one of those tables, the hostess told us that they were "taken" because guests who were staying at the hotel already came to her asking for those tables. This confused me, since we had a reservation and the tables were empty. So hotel guests have first dibs on every table and reservations aren't recognized? They'd rather have empty tables than seat people with reservations? Interesting. We were about to leave when someone else told us that actually, they switched the tables around, and we can sit by the window. Ok... great! We ordered a salad to share and two entrees at 12:30pm. Thirty minutes later, our salad came. We thought that took a very long time but figured that they'd bring out the salad and entrees at the same time, like we saw from another table. But after 50 MINUTES of waiting, we just decided to leave. We saw two other tables with more guests who arrived after us receive their food yet we did not. I've been here two times before, both with white friends, and was not treated this way. The only difference this time is that we were both black, and the other guests who got served were not. I will never come back here, and if you're black I recommend the same. Honestly, I don't recommend this restaurant regardless. The salad was very mediocre, absolutely not up to caliber. read more

Overpriced drinks, amazing service, good meatball rigatoni, great fontina and truffle pizza, the worst french toast and delicious chocolate cake! That pretty much sums it up. Go for the view and vibe Would probably go back. The view was breathtaking. read more

If you're intending on kicking back with a few gold-plated cocktails at JG Skyhigh, high stop Philadelphia's Four Seasons hotel, I strongly recommend that you visit the Philadelphia Mint first and abscond with a handful of hundred dollar currency engraving plates. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for a little exclusive fun where the cost of entry keeps the riff and the raff firmly at bay but I have to laugh at the absurdity of the price points here and the snobber baron attitude of the staff - it all seemed beyond absurd. The view? Well in keeping with the exclusiveness of the aerie, you are in fact looking down on everyone from 60 stories high. I'm still laughing but I can't deny a solid three stars for the view. read more

In Philadelphia on a long weekend and stayed at the Four Seasons, which is amazing. To top it off, literally, we ate at Sky High, the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel that offers amazing views of Philadelphia. The staff were extremely friendly, from the hosts to the servers, and really made what could have been a really pretentious environment feel comfortable. Breakfasts were delicious and, while we didn't eat dinner here, we returned each evening for cocktails and perhaps a dessert while enjoying the lights of Philadelphia. Definitely a must visit! read more

What an experience! The views are the best in the city! Food and service were great too. You need a reservation for a table but you can find a spot at the bar without one, especially if you go on a weekday. See photos for some of the views. read more

I booked a dinner for my Wife and I while we were in Philadelphia in January. The place was beautiful and the service was fantastic. The food and drinks were delicious and not too pricey. The elevator ride up was great, but my only complaint was the weather; it was snowing, and the clouds blocked most of the view of the city. Service was quick, and they suggested some items we tried. I can't remember our server's name, but she was very attentive. read more

Views from the 215! Gotta love JG SkyHigh. You feel like big money dining here. You enter the Four Seasons Hotel, and take an amazing glass elevator all the way up 60 floors to the top. The doors open to breathtaking panoramic views of Philadelphia. Perhaps the best view you can get with your dining experience out in the 215. A great place for a date night out, a dinner with colleagues, or even a drink and meal by yourself with those amazing views to accompany you. I love the Black Truffle Pizza, Shrimp and Mushroom Risotto, and the Chipotle Chicken Tacos. They have a great Brioche French Toast to satisfy your sweet tooth as well. Service is impeccable. The entire wait staff is fully knowledgeable about the food and wine selections that are offered. read more

Definitely should be worth the view and experience, but it falls just a tad bit short for some reason. I can't tell you why or how it just falls a little short.... Maybe to elegant or posh but falls a little flat for me. read more

Wow. Highest point in Philly and I've never seen such a sight! Located in the Comcast/four season building this is the ultimate place to bring a tourist. The elevators are made of glass so you see such a cool view of the city. The bar is a bit tiny but it has a great view of the buildings. There is also a mirror on the top so you can see yourself at the bar, other guests, and that amazing view. The bartenders were super nice. I really liked how they gave a cool trial mix to nibble at while enjoying a cocktail or other sort of drink. read more

Arriving at the Four Seasons Hotel is an experience like no other. From the grandeur of the lavishly appointed entrance and lobby to the impeccable always smiling staff warmly welcoming your arrival. Add to that the colossal interior floral displays lining every surface possible and the fifty nine story all glass elevator ride up to the restaurants. A hand picked staff member rides along for that one of a kind Four Seasons experience. Where's the bathroom "follow me sir I'll take you there". At last, the restaurant itself. Just as you would expect following that first class arrival. A beautiful overall modern ambiance. Thirty foot mirrored ceilings showcasing oversized comfortable tables and seats with more than ample room for a relaxing evening. A relatively quiet atmosphere as the tables are perfectly separated from the other diners. The high ceilings reducing the reflection of the conversational noise back into the room. Cloth surfaces on the oversized chairs absorbing additional noises. Overall a well designed setting for conversing with normal voices. Food selection in the Sky High restaurant was well selected. All were satisfied with their selections except one-me. Food pricing was high/fair considering the overall experience. Wines/cocktails slightly higher than even highest prices in CC. The only disappointment concerned table service. Our dinner service took three hours with extremely long waits between courses. That's not dining, it's poor kitchen timing or understaffing. Our table service included a lack of staff attention especially by our server who was not available or out of sight most of the time. He couldn't address our needs or questions by not visiting frequently. I had to ask three staffers for the same missing item. By the time it came my food was cold. My $27 hamburger was small, not cooked to order with wilted lettuce. It even looked unappetizing. The fries were terrific. The other diners were happy with their fried chicken choices. I thought the tablespoon of vegetable under the chicken stack was silly. Overall, my food and the complete food service didn't come up to expectations when compared to the exceptional ambience and comfort. The question is always- will we return? Not sure. For the sheer upscale feeling, yes, but for the dining experience, no. Oh, I almost forgot. The hip,young later arriving crowd are worth a later reservation. read more

The food was AMAZING!!! You can expect it to me amazing and it will be more delicious than that. The service was top tier from the seating to plate Clearing.

Even if you don't sit immediately near a window you will have a good view of the city. read more

We had the ham Benedict and the frittata. Over nice experience with a great view. read more

The views and service is what makes this place memorable. The views at sunset are not to be missed. Perched above Philadelphia's skyline this place makes you feel like you've stepped into an opulent world outside of Philly. The architecture and style took my breath away. The cocktails and wine list are well appointed and I'd recommend a drink at the bar before sitting down for dinner. Attire is all over the place for this higher end restaurant as it is located in the hotel's lobby. As for the food there are so many dishes to choose from you can't really go wrong with this menu. Yellowfin tuna and chew steak eggrolls were hits the crispy sea trout sushi was delicious but the crispy rice was a little thick. Dessert was spot on. read more

Amazing view. They let you go up the elevator no problem, but you should dress to impress to dine here. The elevator is very fast.?

Originally saw this posted several weeks before my arrival to the Northeast region. I saved it and told some friends about it. A reservation came up for last night at 8:30pm. Wish it was during their glamour hour cause that sure sounded like it would be a blast! We parked across the street using park-mobile app. It cost $19. This place is located in Four Seasons and they did have valet. Not sure the cost though. The elevator is half see through of the Philly skyline if you enjoy that. It gave me severe anxiety lol so I kept looking forward. My cousin asked for security who took us down the service elevator which was super nice of them to accommodate our needs. Overall, enjoyed the ambiance, food, and scenery. read more

You're definitely paying for the ambiance and the view. Nothing we ate was a standout dish. Especially for the price I would've hoped a bit better. Everything was pretty average with a hefty price tag. It is beautiful inside I will say that, if you're okay with paying for the experience then go ahead. I thought the service was quite slow it took almost an hour for the food to arrive and the appetizer was served with the entrees which was odd. read more

This is a top-notch place with great service. I stopped for lunch with an out-of-town friend. I don't usually go to upscale places like this, but they deserve a good rating for the view and service alone. I would imagine it is a great place for breakfast brunch too. read more

Was there for an early birthday dinner (5:15P). The views are truly spectacular. Although the bar area is far too small for a bistro-ish spot, the design and layout of the space makes every table a "good" table in this airy and spacious setting. This alone is something to see. But I'd suggest just having a drink and an appetizer while taking time to enjoy the views and go somewhere else for dinner. It just isn't worth the $$$. The food is far from the quality which should normally be associated with a Four Season Hotel. The best way to describe it is like a slightly better than average international business class airline meal with the usual standard over salted fare. And if you do go, don't bother worrying about dressing up as "suggested" on the website. I mean don't wear flip flops but there were plenty of people in shorts and pullovers to make feel me foolish for bothering to wear a jacket. read more

As everyone else has mentioned, the view was spectacular. Unfortunately, I think they (Restaurant Management) thought the view meant they could charge exploitative prices and it go unnoticed. $10 for a bottle of water just seems like a lowball move from a high-end establishment. The personal pizzas were the most affordable entrees on the menu and they were $25 a piece. Essentially my complaints boil down to lazy ownership, the food selections don't match the prices associated with them. Coming here is like paying for an extremely expensive view, with an underwhelming array of options. Even a drink & an appetizer are going to run $50 per person. I would've liked to have seen more seafood options on the menu, less spinach on the pizza & a heads up...if im paying $10 for a drink its not going to be water read more

The breakfast was also delicious, however, it was considered small portions for my hubby. I had the egg white omelet, and the French toast. The French Toast taste like cake yummmmm! read more
