On our lists of the best rooftop bars, special-occasion restaurants and restaurants with a view in Los Angeles.

Getting in means walking through the valet lot on Landmark Street and taking the elevator to the roof of the Platform complex, where the dining room and terrace have views on all sides, the trains at Culver Junction among them. The food is coastal Mediterranean leaning Italian: oysters and yellowtail crudo, house focaccia with tomato and garlic, black truffle arancini, clam tagliarini, whole fish with romesco. Spritzes fill a separate aperitivo list, and the wine list has a long Champagne section.
