At 71Above, each dish is a masterpiece crafted by Executive Chef Javier Lopez, blending seasonal ingredients with modern American flair. From the delicate Japanese Sea Bream Crudo to the bold Grilled Ribeye and decadent Illanka Chocolate Semifreddo, every bite is elevated by breathtaking 360º views of Los Angeles. Whether indulging in caviar service or savoring a handcrafted pasta, the menu invites you on a journey of culturally inspired flavors from the Los Angeles communities that we are inspired by.
In the heart of downtown Los Angeles and almost 1,000 feet above ground level, 71Above is the highest restaurant west of the Mississippi. Executive Chef Javier Lopez prepares elevated seasonal modern American cuisine coupled with spectacular 360º views. From Malibu to Laguna Hills and the surrounding mountain ranges, guests can enjoy an uninterrupted panorama in an upscale, romantic atmosphere.
In addition to the magnificent views, 71Above offers a variety of dining experiences. Guests may choose to dine within the buzz of the bar, our relaxed bistro-style SkyLounge, or the lively main dining room. We also offer an interactive chef’s table experience facing our open kitchen, edge tables positioned looking out over West Los Angeles, and quieter, semi-private dining areas.
For special events and fully secluded dining, 71Above offers one large and two small private dining rooms overlooking Dodger Stadium.
