Ellis Street Lounge

We're going to play the game here and not give you the exact location of this exclusive speakeasy: it's reservation-only, has strict rules, and you better call ahead before you arrive mister or we're gonna shoot you in the knee caps. Well, it's not quite that exclusive but a certain mystique is part of the Ellis Street Lounge allure. Set on a dark back-street, the space is a former warehouse that's been decked out with thick red satin and velvet drapes and gorgeously ornate vintage chandeliers. Table candles offer a low, seductive glow and the whole place purrs with seductive intent. The bars offer over 30 different cocktails - from the classics to their own creations, and they have a fine selection of rare whiskeys, Cognacs, Armagnacs, bourbons and tequilas too. All this and we haven't even told you about those rules. On second thought, we think we're going to keep it that way.
