Once dinner service has ceased at this upscale, underground restaurant and bar they bring out the big guns - and by that we mean pyrotechnic bottle service. Seriously, if you’re willing to drop over $700 on three bottles of Ruinart Champagne, your ice bucket will arrive with two indoor-friendly fireworks sending showers of sparks into the air. The same happens if you order the novelty-sized bottle of vodka – that one comes with a sparkler collar.
The heels are high, the necklines aren’t and the gents here on a Friday night are likely single-handedly keeping the high-end white t-shirt business solvent. They keep the lights low and a DJ is spinning the kind of chilled beats that sound super familiar, like they’re the building blocks of a recent pop song you can’t quite put your finger on. It’s undeniably a scene at Pelicano, and they do have a dress code so don’t skimp on the glad rags when you visit.
