"If you work in the financial district and need to find a holiday party location, just look up. At the top of the US Bank Tower Downtown is 71Above, LA’s shrine to corporate power moves and the ideal setting for a bunch of people whose idea of letting loose is business casual. That said, 71Above is serving excellent food, and the 360-degree views of LA are like nothing else in the city. Capacity: Private dining rooms for 14 or 30 people, larger dining room for 75, full restaurant buyout available." - brant cox, nikko duren
