It's no secret that there's a bit of cachet connected to any bar that Rande Gerber brings to town, especially one that's in a W Hotel. The Whiskey garners the same lines of would-be entrants that the other W bars have enjoyed in their swanky heydays, but the Times Square locale lends a different feel. In tune with the Las Vegas vibe of the district, a vast VIP section (bottle service only) with a projection screen conjures a futuristic mood.
The biggest bonus of the Whiskey is that it's been granted a cabaret license--no mean feat these days. So you can shake your rump to party music like J-Lo and Madonna, though securing a spot on the mini dance floor can be a challenge. But even if you lack the space to perform your memorized Britney routine, you can while away the time oohing and ahhing at the floor's rainbow of meandering gel colors. |
