    Two members of our party have numerous food allergies. One can’t eat nightshades which are present in almost all their menu items. Our server was very helpful and the chef remade a chicken dish to accommodate the allergy. Our friend could not stop raving about the dish. Everything we ordered was spectacular. Another member of our party is allergic to chocolate and dairy, she usually is unable to partake in dessert. She was very excited to see banana sorbet with tamarind sauce on the menu, it was so yummy. We had a fabulous dining experience and will go back soon.

    This dining experience at 71Above was excellent, the three course meal was incredible, from my first course the farm salad, to my second course the ribeye steak and lastly my third course the mango rice pudding. The food was amazing, the view of overlooking downtown LA from the 71st floor just added to the ambiance; as well as our amazing waiter making it an overall excellent experience. I highly recommend 71Above!!!!
