The best part about The Highlawn? The views.

You get panoramic views of the surrounding area as well as the New York City skyline.

No matter the season, you'll find a jaw-dropping view here.

We're particularly partial to the view in the snow.

Oh, and the food is amazing. As it's a steakhouse, we highly recommend the steak.

But there is also pasta, salads, soups, and vegan dishes, too.

And you have to try the dessert.

Be warned, though: The sweet treats might be too pretty to eat.

The Highlawn isn't just open for dining, though. Private events are held here, too.

Weddings, parties, holiday events, and more are held at The Highlawn.

And some nights, there is live music out on the outdoor patio.
