I was born and raised in Los Angeles, a city that is filled with different cultures and diversity. As a young child, my father exposed me to the gastronomy of LA--Middle Eastern, Mexican and Thai foods. I began cooking at 10 and got my first restaurant job at 17 working at the Jonathan Club under Chef Josh Gil. That’s where my creativity started to take shape.

I stay motivated by my family’s humble beginnings in Nicaragua and aspire to motivate my kitchen staff.

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.

HOW IT WORKS:

1. Phase One - we get enough support to go forward.  We take a non-refundable deposit - this is not the cost of the dinner approx. will hold your space.  Should the dinner not hit the minimum of 14 guests - we will refund your purchase.  Should the dinner continue, deposit is forfeited if you do not complete the registration.  
2. Phase Two- we have reached enough reservations to go forward and have signed the agreement with the venue.  Event is now rain or shine and no cancellation policy is enforced.  We open 1 bottle per guest - maximum 15 guests/15 wines (minimum).  We always aim to under promise and over deliver - and bring back of wines should we have an issue; but our policy is that corked wine can and does occur - see our policy - one bottle per paying guest, and price of dinner is not predicted on any one wine remain in place and are accepted at deposit.  
3. For some events, we will offer companion tickets (please inquire - they maybe sold out at this time) (only available with a full price companion - you will share their wine)
4. Once we reach the minimum - we issue invoices that need to be paid inside of 48 hours.  Deposit Price of the event includes tax but does not include service and 3.5% credit card fee.  Now with tickets at all inclusive - all fees are included.

Dinner Policy

All tickets (including deposits) are non-refundable.  We can adjust your menu for dietary needs up to 72 hours prior without any additional cost.  Wines can change without notice, failure or corked wines do not result in any type of credit or refund. We open one bottle minimum per paying guest, and can reduce the total number of bottles being opened so that the event does not have to cancel should ticket sales not reach potential.  Fewer bottles will equal larger pours, so you will get the same quantity of wine and we always open the best wines for the quality of the event. Cancellation due to illness is understandable and appreciated, but does not qualify for a refund.  If you are not well, you may ask for the food to be made available for togo or assign your seat to someone else without fee.  The perishable nature of our product requires no cancellation, no credit, no refunds for any reason. Cost of ticketing fees and credit card fees are lost at purchase.
