Dine outside all summer at the 100 best al fresco restaurants in the U.S.
OpenTable has announced its list of the best-reviewed restaurants where you can dine al fresco.
Summer dining isn’t just about the food, it’s about the view.
Why waste the good, warm weather by always dining inside? Now that the sun is out, foodies love to take advantage of the season by finding as many places to eat with some comfortable outdoor patios, gardens, backyards and best views they can possibly find while they feast.

“The popularity of these restaurants speaks to diners’ desire for their culinary adventures to also include picturesque views, garden patios, urban vistas and overall just a bit of nature and open-air,” said Caroline Potter, OpenTable’s chief dining officer, in a statement.
