Mirror, mirror on the wall… please forgive us, because sometimes we can’t help but indulge our millennial instincts and snap a ’Gram. Particularly when the facilities are as lovely as these.

The first reason to go to the Iron Chef’s eponymous spot is for some of the best sushi in town. But the bathrooms are a close second. They’re outfitted with artwork that can best be described as “futuristic secret garden.” Snap snap snap.

Royal Palms Shuffleboard Club
If you step into this flamingo-splashed wonderland and don’t have a sudden urge to snap a pic (and maybe stand on one leg)… well, we don’t know what to tell you.

The Grill
Because sometimes you want to feel like an old-timey movie star between coyses.

House Of Yes
Of course the performance/art/party/circus venue would have an equally over-the-top bathroom: The hallway is basically a giant disco ball, while the stalls are decked out in varying degrees of sparkle.

Island Oyster
Why yes, we would like to wash our hands with a view of One World Trade, thank you very much.

Habana Outpost
Habana Outpost
The hanging plants in this seasonal eatery’s alfresco restroom are a nice touch—but what’s even more impressive is that the eco-friendly plumbing is powered by a rainwater collection system piped in from the roof.

Maman
Outfitted with Moroccan tile floors and black-and-white baby pics, les toilettes at this French café have a ridiculous amount of charm per square inch… you know, like the rest of the place.

Smith & Mills
What, you’ve never been inside a bathroom housed in an old elevator car built in 1902?
