World's best restaurants with sunset views/USA TODAY


LAGOON by Jean Georges at The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort in Bora Bora, Tahiti: Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten applies his love of local ingredients to this French- and Asian-inspired feat with gorgeous views of Mount Otemanu (the restaurant hovers above calm, paradise waters). Start with rice cracker-crusted tuna or foie gras brûlée with strawberry and balsamic jam, then splurge on the slow-cooked moonfish with truffle vinaigrette and mashed potatoes or the grilled veal tenderloin with caramelized cauliflower and pistachio pesto.  Starwood Hotels



Tugra Restaurant and Lounge in the Ciragan Palace in Istanbul: On the first floor of the original Ciragan Palace, you’ll be transported back to the heyday of the Ottoman Empire at Tugra. You’ll feel like royalty with the bedazzling Bosphorus River before you and a mouthwatering selection of Külbasti options — quail fillet, minced lamb loin, beef tenderloin, or free-range chicken — served with smoked mashed eggplant, roasted red pepper, and pomegranate and red onion relish. If you’re feeling adventurous, how about the goose kebab?

GB Roof Garden Restaurant and Bar at the Hotel Grande Bretagne, Athens: Greeks are late-night folks, preferring to dine long past sundown, so sunset is all about setting the mood with cocktails and appetizers. The rooftop at Hotel Grande Bretagne offers views of the reddening sun sinking into the ancient Acropolis. It also offers mod-Mediterranean bites like roast scallops with celery, fennel, and pear; octopus terrine with sweet peppers, smoked eggplant, and wild oregano; and a stepped-up classic Greek salad with barley rusks (twice-baked bread), feta, and capers. Make a toast with a refreshing local Greek white wine.

Echoes Boutique Hotel and Restaurant in Katoomba, Australia: At the edge of the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park, you’ll find a diner’s Eden at Echoes’ Restaurant with views of mountains and exotic valleys. Cozy up next to an open fireplace in the stone-clad dining room and chow down on tempura soft-shell crab with green papaya salad and finger-lime salsa, pan-roasted barramundi with creamy cabbage, and seared guinea fowl with mushroom duxelle, garlic purée, heirloom carrots, and truffle sauce.  Echoes Hotel



Hacienda Cocina y Cantina in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico: Savor beachfront views as you take in the sunset shadowing the famous Land’s End rocks and enjoy the no-frills experience of casero — or homemade — Mexican cuisine enhanced by local ingredients. Don’t pass up the cool local tequila list, either. Start by sharing the sea bass ceviche with tomatillo sauce; the house salad with strawberry, mango, goat cheese, jicama, and tamarind vinaigrette; the fried calamari with poblano peppers and avocado cream; and the smoked marlin empanadas with cotija cheese and chile oil, and, extra belt loops permitting, try the rich chicken mole.
