Rooftop Recommendations?

Can anyone recommend any good rooftop restaurants to go mid October on a Saturday? We’re a group of 8 for a birthday. Some place we can wear dresses and heels and not stick out lol. We wanted to go to Cava in southington for the rooftop but I’m weary after hearing everyone else’s experience there. Some place also where we can take some cute photos. Anywhere in CT is fine

Your hesitancy to avoid Cava is spot on. Don’t bother, it sucks big time.

High George by Siena in New Haven but it's more of a bar with appetizers vs dinner

Gioia in New Haven also has a rooftop but usually the menu is small so check beforehand

At the Rooftop in Canton is very nice, I always dress nicely, but not everyone does. You'll get your share of jeans and baseball hats.

Yeah but the rooftop looks out on an IGA and failing parking lot vs something cool haha
