XIX (CLOSED)

When the beautiful people have finished pretending to eat at Nolita hot spot Travertine, this Roman Empire–themed lounge awaits them below. Black marble slabs etched with toga-clad figures line the walls, and both the leather booths and a velvet ceiling are lipstick red. If hunger strikes after a few $16 quaffs—like the Bohemian Silk, with elderflower liqueur, vodka and grapefruit juice—loungers can head back upstairs, where a late-night menu of small bites like tuna tartare is served until 4am.
