Reviews
From the moment we arrived, we felt taken care of. We were greeted in the lobby to confirm our reservation. Then escorted through two separate elevators to reach the restaurant which towered over most buildings. Initially there weren’t any window tables available which was fine with us. We were grateful just to have a last minute reservation. However a window seat opened up halfway through our experience and our server moved us to the table without us even asking. He was always making sure we were having the best experience possible.
The service, view and restaurant ambiance were impeccable as was the food! My son and I had the three course experience but also added additional deserts and apps just to try more things. For the first course my son chose the tuna ….which he said was incredibly fresh and the best thing that has ever touched his pallet . I had the pasta and it was incredible. Perfect balance of flavors. It was the best pasta I’ve had in a long time. Then we also shared the octopus which was beautifully plated And delicious but we liked the other two better.
Then I had the barramundi and my son had the New York strip. Both were excellent. For dessert, we struggled to decide…. We ended up trying the strawberry, Blueberry, Chocolate dessert, As well as the cheese plate. All incredibly different and good for different reasons. Do you want something light, I would go with a strawberry, Unique flavors blueberry or the chocolate. Overall, it was a very wonderful experience and the best restaurant of our whole trip! Well, done!
The sommelier was fantastic. she was knowledgeable, warm, and truly elevated the experience (I wish I remembered her name). Our waitress, Kelsey, was phenomenal: attentive, professional, and genuinely kind. Even the team clearing and resetting the tables did so seamlessly and thoughtfully.
The ambiance deserves special mention: great background music at the perfect volume, elegant lighting, and beautiful decor that made it easy to relax and enjoy conversation. And of course, the view, seeing Los Angeles from the 71st floor of the US Bank Building is nothing short of breathtaking.
An unforgettable evening. Highly recommend for a special night out.
71Above is one of the most visually stunning dining spots in Los Angeles. The ambiance is modern and elegant, and if you’re lucky enough to be seated by the windows, the panoramic views of the city are absolutely breathtaking.
Service:
The staff was excellent—attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The level of service definitely reflects fine dining standards.
Food Review (3-Course Dinner):
• Farm Salad – 4/5
Fresh, well-balanced, and beautifully plated. Great way to start the meal.
• A5+ Japanese Wagyu – 5/5 (for the steak)
Melt-in-your-mouth delicious. One of the highlights of the night.
❗️However, the potato served with it was overly salty and barely enjoyable, which took away from the perfection of the main course.
• Desserts – unfortunately disappointing
I ordered the Blueberry Pavlova and the Ilanka Chocolate Semifreddo. Both were overpowered by an extremely sour lime component, to the point where they were not pleasant to eat. The flavor balance was way off.
⸻
Overall:
✅ Amazing view
✅ Excellent service
✅ Wagyu was unforgettable
❌ Sides and desserts need refinement
I’d still recommend 71Above for the experience alone, but I hope the kitchen adjusts some of the flavors so the food can fully match the beauty of the space.
As soon as we walked in, we were blown away by the gorgeous view and the warm, inviting ambiance. For my meal, I ordered the Handkerchief Pasta to start, followed by the ribeye, and finished with the strawberries and cream for dessert. Every single dish was phenomenal—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I couldn’t find a single flaw.
For drinks, I had the West Hollywood cocktail, which reminded me of a cinnamon apple in the very best way. Our server was attentive and thoughtful, even bringing out a small appetizer sample before our courses arrived. Toward the end of the evening, he offered us complimentary champagne, which was such a kind gesture (though we were too full to accept!).
Overall, this was an unforgettable dining experience. If you’re in LA, this place is an absolute must-visit!
La has so much to offer that I probably would not return to 71 above but the experience is treasured!
