This guide picks ten rooftop restaurants where the food is as much a reason to go as the view, from fine dining under a golden dome to Peruvian-Japanese plates above Sukhumvit.

How We Chose These Restaurants

The guide is compiled from published sources, not from personal visits. Rooftops can close in bad weather, so check before you go.
