Cielo

Address: 18 Little W 12th St, between 9th & Washington, New York, NY 10014

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

One of the city's top clubs regardless of who's keeping score, the place "where house music lives" is indeed a primo spot to be in the Meatpacking District once the midnight hours roll in. The music – an innovative, global montage of everything from Afro-Latin and soul to techno and nu jazz – is a big draw, of course....

Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola

Address: 132 W 65th St, Frederick P. Rose Hall at Lincoln Center, New York, NY

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

Ritzy Lincoln Center may seem like an odd place to go if you're looking to find some of the Big Apple's coolest, keenest jazz. After all, everybody knows the best jazz dens are dank, smoky hideaways, right? Well, Dizzy's dispels that myth with a fury. Young and emerging performers are given time on Monday nights...

MO Bar

Trendy yet ultimately inviting, contemporary yet timelessly comfortable – Mo Bar is...

Cain

Address: 544 W 27th St, New York, NY 10001

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

African influences pervade this ultra-chic space, located less than a block west of Chelsea Park. Indeed, bongos, animal prints, trade beads and safari treasures provide the backdrop, and the crowd seems to move in trance-like harmony with the music. At the bar, the knowledgeable staff concocts magical cocktails, and...

B.B. King's Blues Club & Grille

Address: 237 W 42nd St, New York, NY 10036

This impressive venue pays tribute to soulful blues legend B.B. King and features musicians who specialize in everything from blues, jazz and hip-hop to funk, blue grass and even heavy metal.

40/40 Club

Address: 6 W 25th St, New York, NY 10010

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

For all intents and purposes, this Flatiron spot is far too sexy to be thrown into the sports bar mix. This looks like a place where people with expensive taste in clothes and cognac (Read: A-listers) gather and indulge. Not surprisingly, 40/40 attracts plenty of big names – after all, Jay-Z is a co-owner – with its...

O'Lunney's

Address: 145 W 45th St, Times Square, New York, NY 10036

User rating: User Rating and Review ( Rate It! )

Little wonder these attractive digs attract such a loyal crowd – After all, it's a classy place to grab a pint in the Theatre District, what with the 16-foot ceilings, expansive horseshoe-shaped bar, the skylight, exposed brick wall, earthy colors and tiled floor. O'Lunney's also earns applause for its kitchen fare, a...

Bemelmans Bar

Address: 35 E 76th St, The Carlyle, New York, NY 10021

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

This Madison Avenue piano bar, named after an author of children's literature, attracts a more mature and well-heeled group of clientele than some of the Upper East Side's other nightspots do. Murals from Ludwig Bemelman's depict scenes from "Madeline" and a few of his other stories, adding nice contrast to the bar's...

Sakagura

Address: 211 E 43rd St, New York, NY 10017

User rating: ( Be the first to Rate It. )

Sake is serious stuff at this authentic Japanese bar, located between 2nd and 3rd Avenues. In fact, aficionados of rice wine find themselves in quite a quandary as the stylish Sakagura stocks some 200 distinct varieties; meanwhile, beer, liquor and wine are available to those with more conservative palates. The sleek...
