A creative crowd practices the art of chilling in this super-plush space.. The Scene
Going through the unmarked black gate and down the stairs to this lounge feels like being invited to an exclusive party by friends in the know. Cozy bars mark both of the spacious, semi-private rooms, where models and musicians recline among heaping pillows on an abundance of suede and dark leather couches.

The Draw
Weekends have a chic, clubby feel, while Tuesdays make for a more low-key social scene. DJs spin everything from rock to hip-hop to European house, and sometimes a screen drops down from the ceiling for an instant movie night. A specialty drink menu sweetens with delicious cosmojitos striking just the right balance between fruit and mint flavors, and the smooth Saigon shots that mix rum, tequila, and mango--though bottles of Ketel One and Cristal make the rounds just as much. Plus, patrons can nibble on midnight snacks of sushi or stir-fry from companion restaurant Hue next door.
