The gorgeous 1950s pastel style decor is courtesy of iconic director Wes Anderson, who designed the bar back in 2015, saying "While I do think it would make a pretty good movie set, I think it would be an even better place to write a movie. I tried to make it a bar I would want to spend my own non-fictional afternoons in."

Armani Ristorante - Armani - New York
This is the second time Armani features on our list and for good reason, in the case of the Italian fashion house two restaurants is certainly better than one. While the aforementioned Nobu in Milan is more of a collaboration between legendary chef Nobu Matsuhisa and Georgio Armani, this restaurant is dominated by the fashion label. Their New York offering serves Italian cuisine in surroundings reminiscent of a sharp Armani navy suit.
