Citysearch
The Scene – Three writers created this striking, double-height lounge and named it after their favorite drinking, writing and carousing young poet, Paul Verlaine. In addition to the literary crowd, artists, film folks and professional nightlifers flock for the DJ-quality music and peacefully ambient vibe. The golden-washed, minimalist space, with black banquettes and furry pillows, provides a warm and mellow refuge. – – The Draw – Clean, bright Vietnamese flavors permeate drinks and a chopstick-friendly small plate menu. Hanoi martinis, mixed with vodka, lychee syrup…

Amazing place but TOO loud!

I love this place and usually meet friends here all the time, but I think it's time for a break. I'm so sick of having to leave out of frustration that I can't hear the group that I brought to the place! Please turn down the music to a level that people can hear each other! Especially since this place is perfect for pleasant conversations over drinks and not dancing!
- Pros: $5 lychee martinis until 10pm, decor, appetizers
- Cons: music is too loud- can't hear friends talk

This came recommended and I can understand why as the Happy Hour specials are a good deal. Don't order the Sangria though! it was gross and literally just bad cheap red wine with some fruit tossed in it. YUCK!
It's also incredibly dark inside, you truly can't see the person you're speaking too. It needs some light, it was like a dungeon. Bottom line-we left as soon as we finished our drinks. Pass it.. people.
- Pros: Happy Hour Prices
- Cons: Crowed, Sangria & Can't see
The Details on Verlaine
When to Go:
Their first-rate happy hour runs everyday until 10pm, with discounts like specialty martinis for half-price (meaning each is only $4).
