The Scene

Guys and dolls seeking an upscale watering hole with more than a hint of speakeasy charm will fall to their knees for this art-deco hideaway. No detail has been spared--from the Cole Porter music and shiny red booths to the blue-mirrored tile walls and velvet bar stools--in creating a swing-era lounge where Rat Packish tastemakers and their dates will feel right at home.

The Draw

From the impeccabe drink menu, try the refreshing Juniper Breeze, infused with elderflower cordial, but skip the muddled strawberry and tequila Morango, which is door-knock away from a supersize margarita. Be sure to sample the themed "Flight of the Day," a trio of themed cocktails served in small martini glasses (the Flight to Kentucky features drinks all made with Maker's Mark). Guest mixologists such as Audrey Saunders of Bemelmans Bar round out the offerings by loaning their favorite libation recipes to the already stellar list.
