Above Eleven

This bar and restaurant doesn't just have great views of the city going for it, there's also an adventurous menu of Japanese-Peruvian fusion (aka Nikkei) cuisine. Small plates like acebichado rolls (seabass, ika karage, avocado) and skewers of anticucho beef heart are bettered only by the signature cocktails. Note that if you're sitting at the bar you'll have your back to the skyline, so it’s worth booking a table in advance.

Don't miss the truffle-infused wagyu beef tenderloin Rossini—a menu staple and proven crowd pleaser.
