"For last-minute sunset drinks, it’s hard to compete with this cocktail spot at The Dream Hollywood. The fun playlists aren't too loud, no one cares if you notice their outfit, and there’s always a handful of tables set aside for walk-ins. You'll probably spot a pair of flip-flops resting by the pool as you approach the host stand. And since the glass railing gives everyone a perfect skyline view, it’s easy to sneak a photo with the Hollywood Sign. When you’ve outgrown Mama Shelter, The Highlight Room is the best alternative for drinks with a view in the area. Just know that after 9pm, the crowd takes a sharp, chaotic turn." - brant cox, arden shore
"On top of Dream Hollywood is the Highlight Room, which boasts some of the area’s best views. With clear-cut vistas looking out to Hollywood and beyond, it was outfitted to become an evening party space, full restaurant service with light California fare, two DJ booths, constant beats from large speakers, a pool, and bottle service." - Rebecca Roland
"This Lower East Side rooftop at the Moxy offers downtown skyline views with live DJs. Weekdays offer $5 glasses of rose at happy hour, pitchers of cocktails, and snacks from 5 to 9 p.m. Over at the reserved tables, it’s fancy people with bubbles or bottle service." - Eater Staff
"In addition to the restaurant, there’s Silver Lining, a piano lounge opening Saturday, December 10; the Highlight Room, a rooftop bar; the Fix, an all-day cafe and lobby bar, and Loosie’s, a subterranean club. All venues are now open, barring Silver Lining." - Melissa McCart
"A rooftop bar located in the forthcoming Moxy hotel on the Lower East Side, set to open in late October." - Luke Fortney
