About This Place

Perched atop one of Philadelphia's tallest buildings, Skyhigh offers an unforgettable blend of dining and nightlife that is as elevated in experience as its breathtaking views. This exceptional venue seamlessly merges a vibrant lounge, chic wine bar, and a refined breakfast and brunch destination, making it a multifaceted hotspot in the heart of the city.

Skyhigh’s culinary offerings are a testament to its commitment to quality and creativity. The seafood selections, such as the delicate Cod and the Crispy Sea Trout, showcase expertly prepared fresh flavors that dance on the palate. For those who appreciate the art of sushi, the Sea Trout Sushi and Tuna Tartare, paired with radish and ginger soy sauce, provide a refreshingly modern take on classic favorites. Brunch enthusiasts will delight in indulgent yet sophisticated dishes like the Egg Toast with Caviar, Eggs Benedict, and Avocado Toast, each thoughtfully crafted to balance texture and taste.

Dessert at Skyhigh is a celebration of both elegance and comfort. The Pavlova with Blood Orange Sorbet is a standout, marrying lightness with zesty brightness, while the rich Chocolate Cake and Ice Cream offers a deeply satisfying finale to any meal. For those craving savory options, the Fried Chicken with Creamed Corn Habanero Hot Sauce Butter and the iconic Cheesesteak Eggrolls introduce bold, comforting flavors with a contemporary twist.

The drink menu is equally impressive, boasting an array of expertly mixed cocktails such as the Raspberry Rosè Bellini and the intriguingly crafted Olive Oil Washed Freezer Martini. Each cocktail is not just a drink but an experience, meticulously prepared to complement the sophisticated atmosphere. The impressive wine list, featuring selections like Trefethen Chardonnay from Napa Valley and Domaine Schoffit’s Chasselas from Alsace, caters to both the casual sipper and the discerning connoisseur.

One of Skyhigh’s most celebrated attributes is its ambiance. As customers have shared, the lounge impresses with its sleek, modern design highlighted by mirrored ceilings and elegant holiday decorations that elevate the space without overwhelming it. The floor-to-ceiling glass walls provide panoramic views of Philadelphia that shift from dazzling daylight cityscapes to the shimmering nighttime skyline, creating a magical setting that enhances every visit.

    Great classy high rise bar in city. It’s the highest point in city where you can drink. The view of city is great from the place Ava decoration is awesome too. We only had drinks here. Mine was bit sweet at first but our bartender fix it the next time.

    This is my first time at a "rooftop" restaurant and I'd say this was probably the fanciest restaurant I've been to as well. My girlfriend and I went on Friday night, but all reservations were booked. Thankfully, you can still go even without a reservation. We took an elevator ride up the 60th floor which was a great experience. There are glass walls so you can see the outside view of Philadelphia as you acsend. We got seated immediately, and again, this was without a reservation. The food was amazing and you have the best views of Phili as well. The service was on point as well, I believe our server was Yousef who was amazing. The prices honestly aren't bad for the venue, but clearly its not on the cheap side. I definitely recommend it!

    I was really impressed by the ambiance — it’s such a classy, beautifully designed space. The lighting, decor, and even the mirrored ceiling gave it a sleek, modern feel, and the nighttime view overlooking the city was absolutely stunning. It’s definitely one of those places where the atmosphere alone makes the evening feel special. The service was excellent: our servers were attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of the whole night. My friends loved their dishes (especially the pasta and salmon), and everything came out beautifully plated. I went for one of the pizzas, which I personally found a bit on the bland side, but that’s just my taste. I think I would’ve enjoyed another dish more. Overall though, the food quality was great and you could tell a lot of care went into each item. It’s a perfect spot for a nice dinner out or to celebrate something special!

    The hotel bar is highly recommended. The service was excellent. The drinks were superb. We got the tropical old fashioned which was a interesting drink. It had a pineapple ice mold which was fun. Also got sparkling pomegranate which was good. The interior decor is beautiful - the mirrored ceiling, the holiday decorations were elegant and elaborate. Well done. I will be coming back.

    The service was definitely the best I've had in NJ and Philadelphia. They are so polite and go the extra mile. For the food and drinks. It was really good,It is very expensive for what you get. Like pasta dish or fried chicken $34 but it's good. My old fashion was $24 for a regular sized drink with makers. You are pretty much paying for the view, customer service and the experience.. I think it's worth it for a special occasion. Our waitress was amazing, everyone there was!! Had 1 issue with my pasta dish where half of the noodles were really hard, she did offer to change the dish which I did, but by the time it came out my wife was done eating so I ate alone. Nothing else was offered for the inconvenience.

    I made reservations for Sunday Brunch on September 28th to celebrate my Aunt’s birthday. I’d been to the landing page and read everything about the place and was excited. Our experience was even better than I’d imagined! The atmosphere was sublime and the live band added another decadent layer! What really raised the bar was the exemplary service we received! Mohammed came first offering water. I’d expressed a desire to sit by the window and he promptly went to check in with the hostess to see what could be managed. There were no window seats available yet he offered to easily move us if one did open up. Then came Kayla. From the moment she approached us it was as if WE alone were her focus. She was extremely warm, attentive, professional and funny! She checked on us regularly, rounded up several ‘hot sauces’ at my request and did not let her offer to take photos of us slip by despite her need to attend to others. And I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the food! EVERYthing we ordered was decadent! The freshness of the baby gem lettuces with out Salad Nicoise and the expertly seared tuna, perfect sunny side up eggs with my ‘melt in your mouth’ steak. And the potato rosti?! Crisp exterior with delicate rosemary scented potato layers inside! My Aunt’s lobster could have been cooked another 40 seconds tbh, but her eggs were fluffy and the dish as a whole was sumptuous!! The dessert buffet was AHmazing and the only thing I thought to photograph! We were truly enjoying the experience IN THE MOMENT. This was a very lovely birthday surprise for my Aunt made even more extraordinary by the care and attentiveness we received by ALL the service personnel who came to our table yesterday. Kayla and Mohammad may have been the lead players, yet I known their jobs are only made easier when the entire team commits to work seamlessly. These things do not go unnoticed by me! We will definitely be coming back
