Dining out can often be a memorable experience, but the meal can often be elevated by the restaurant's environment, whether that's from striking views of surrounding lakes and mountains or through an exquisitely decorated interior with a charming atmosphere.
Using reviews, awards and accolades and first-hand experiences, LoveFood compiled a list 39 "most beautiful" restaurants around the country, "from enduring classics to spots with incredible views."
Among eateries in stunning locales like Honolulu, San Francisco and St. Augustine, are two restaurants in Georgia that managed to make the list. Coming in at No. 19 is Canoe in Atlanta, while The Old Pink House in Savannah ranked No. 28. Here's what LoveFood had to say about the two Georgia restaurants named among America's most beautiful:
"Tucked away on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, Canoe is the perfect spot to swing by if you want to really feel like you're getting away from it all. With a beautiful riverside location, the restaurant is surrounded by colorful gardens, for alfresco dining with a view. Inside is equally striking; the decor combines impressive ironwork, exposed brick walls and a wooden ceiling, creating a casually elegant atmosphere."
"The elegant exterior of The Olde Pink House looks like something dreamed up for Instagram, with its putty-pink walls and lush greenery. It's housed inside an 18th-century Georgian mansion, with a grand portico entrance and latticed windows. Inside, it's a jewelry box of grand, plushily decorated rooms filled with art and antiques. It specializes in classic Southern cuisine that perfectly suits the setting, with crispy fried lobster tails among the signature bites."
