Any of the restaurants in the main room of Grand Central Terminal...can't beat that. And don't forget the Oyster Bar in the basement.

I am not sure if it is the same, but I know it is definitely not amazing.

The Metropolitan Club if nothing else because of its great views of the park.

Here's the Zagat Listing of Best Decor. I don't present it as definitive, only as a basis to get discussion going:

#1 (29/30 for decor) Asiate
#2-5 (all tied at 28/30 for decor): Per Se, Daniel, Four Seasons, My Moon
#6-19 (all tied at 27/30 for decor): Le Grenouille, Rosanjin, Adour, River Cafe, Rainbow Room, Rainbow Grill, Buddakan, Kittichai, Terrace in the Sky, Zenkichi, Gilt, Del Posto, One if by Land Two if by Sea, La Bernadin

You?
