I was taken to 71Above for my birthday in July. It is truly a dining experience from the moment you check-in on the first floor. The restaurant offers a three-course meal. Each course is a unique experience. Service is impeccable. Thank you, Carl, for servicing us as we celebrated our 30th anniversary.

I should make Momad one of my regular dining spots. The ambiance was warm, the service was excellent, and the food was outstanding! We ordered the whipped feta with homemade pita, which was delicious—I was eating it like soup. The addition of honey and basil seeds was a delightful surprise. I could list all the dishes we tried, but you must dine here. You’ll be wowed, just as I was!

Oh my gosh, where do I start! First off, so super cute. The ambiance is sweet and feels like a little slice of magic. This was my first time here. We came to celebrate my birthday, there were 7 of us. We got seated right away in a comfortable area with enough space to enjoy ourselves. Abraham was wonderful in getting us started with our orders! We ordered the Pear and Brie pizza ( yummm) , the lamb hummus, the Chilaen sea bass, omg, so good, the petite filet, mac and cheese, and more. Michael was out server, he also took such great care of us. I could eat here every night and not tire of it. The food was delicious, the desert. The BEST Cake is out of this world and service impeccable. Well done Bacari!
