N/Naka, California

Chef Niki Nakayama’s modern kaiseki restaurant in Los Angeles is one of the city’s buzziest spots. Here, you can expect edible sculptures of Japanese fare that are (almost) too beautiful to eat. And, with only 26 seats, the ambiance at N/Naka feels exclusive, making it the perfect place to indulge in the acclaimed 13-course tasting menu. Reservations are released via Tock on Sundays at 10 PM EST and are known to disappear in seconds. 

Restaurant Guy Savoy, Nevada

Win big in Vegas? Treat yourself to a meal at this over-the-top French restaurant inside Caesars Palace. The fine dining experience is available à la carte or via a special tasting menu. Signature dishes include “Colors of Caviar,” octopus terrine, and an impossibly rich artichoke and black truffle soup with toasted mushroom brioche and black truffle butter (pictured). Snag a reservation on OpenTable.
