"A 64th-floor cocktail bar reached via a deliberate path through a sister restaurant's desk and elevators, then up a staircase; the interior features tall burgundy curtains, plush booths, and a disco ball, but the best experience requires stepping outside to the balcony with heated seats for panoramic views. Weather determines visibility, cocktails run roughly $24, staff discourage taking glassware outside, and the scene attracts people chasing an exclusive, elevated night out." - Tammie Teclemariam
