Many Kansas Citians seem to think Skies is one of those gimmick restaurants, fine for out-of-towners and Hyatt hotel guests. They're missing a great restaurant. Skies serves food as elegant as its views. On the 43rd -- and highest -- floor of the Hyatt Regency Crown Center, Skies makes one complete revolution each hour to provide diners with a panoramic view of the city and its surroundings. The restaurant's outer wall is composed of 72 plate-glass windows, and the arrangement of the tables means that once seated, diners can see just one or two other tables (and the entire city at their feet). No wonder Skies is regularly cited as one of the most romantic restaurants in town. The menu offers plenty to love, too, with its variety of beef, seafood and chicken entrees. A perennial favorite is the prime rib, which is done well at Skies. -- Anna Foote
