There are millions of restaurants in the world, but a scant few can say that they provide the out-of-this-world dining experiences the restaurants in this slideshow do on a daily basis.
From treehouse restaurants to ones with a 'World of Warcraft' theme, a knock-out setting is a logical place to start when planning a killer restaurant. Tech-savvy add-ons like touchscreen menus and robot waiters push the envelope farther, while customized taste lab restaurants and pay-what-you-want pricing take the experience of dining out to new, bizarre levels.
