You will not be able to enjoy the food if the surrounding doesn’t make you feel comfortable and welcoming. Because of this, we have compiled a list of five restaurants in North America that you will definitely want to return to.
Juniper & Ivy

Fulton Market Kitchen
Fulton Market Kitchen located in Chicago is a restaurant that will surely provide you a unique experience. It doesn’t even look like one, but instead, you will feel like you have entered an art gallery. The design was inspired by Miami’s Wynwood Walls and 1980s New York art scene. The best part is that the restaurant collaborates with local artists who exhibit their work here, so the setting may be different every time you come. In addition, while waiting for your food to be prepared, you can have an exclusive behind the scene look at how these pieces are created.
The Grey
The Grey is a restaurant located inside the transformed Greyhouse Bus Terminal in downtown Savanah, Georgia. The former ticketing booth is now the kitchen, a private dining area is placed in the women’s shower room, a bar is in the central gate area, and the wine cellar is in the driver’s bunk room. The building’s façade was restored to its original 1938 Art Deco look, and they have even preserved the numbers that represent the station’s boarding gates.
