Best view in the city?

Do you have a favorite spot to spend your spring high above the city? We want to know.
E-mail me your vote (or post it below) for the best rooftop patios outside of the center city.
We're strictly looking for rooftops, not balconies or sidewalk tables.

    Bentley's on 27th isn't bad, but it's a real shame there are no viewing areas atop our towers that's fully accessible to the public, like Chicago's Sears Tower and NYC's Empire State Building. Can someone name a place in uptown where you don't have to be part of the elite to enjoy the view from above? I can't think of one.

    HOM and Forum's is OK. I bet the rooftop patio at the Epicenter will be pretty cool.

    Any places outside of Dilworth, South End and uptown? That's what I'm really looking for. Thanks.

    Moosehead has a cool second story deck. You have to crane your neck to get a view of Uptown but its a great place for afternoon drinks.

    What about LOFT 1523? It has a great rooftop that overlooks the city, but you don't have to deal with the uptown traffic.

    There's the patio at Village Tavern in SouthPark. No view of the city but Barclay Downs fountains are always a treat.

    It's not built yet, but the new bar in Plaza Midwood (Soul?) where the Perch used to be (corner of Central and Pecan) is supposed to have an outside terrace which will have a perfect view of downtown.
