Can you be more specific? Is there a type of cuisine you like? Is there a particular area in LA you want to stay in or are you open to anywhere in LA County? Do you have a price point? The more specific your question, the easier it will be to answer.
For now, I can tell you some of my favorite higher-end restaurants to check out.
La Cachette
http://www.lacachetterestaurant.com/home.html
- Food and wait staff are both excellent. The restaurant has a beautiful interior space and French waiters who know what they're talking about.
Patina
http://www.patinagroup.com/patina/
- At the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Great seasonal dining since the menu changes to reflect the best in produce for the time of year.
Providence
http://www.providencela.com/
- Nominated Best New Restaurant in the US. If you love seafood, this is the place to check out because that's their specialty.
Cuidad
http://www.cicadarestaurant.com/
- Northern Italian food that is tasty, but the real draw is that the restaurant is decorated in the Art Deco-style. It's absolutely beautiful inside. In fact, you can see pics at:

The Hilton Hotel (LAX). You can go to the top floor where the restaurant is, get a window seat and look down on the airport runway and watch the planes land and take off while you have a nice dinner.
Cano's Restaurant-Newport Beach..you can get a window seat and watch the boats in the harbor..thats a pretty place to go.
