Managed by folks from other downtown notables such as Lot 61, Viscaya is most definitely a scene. Industrial-looking metal blinds and stone formations give the city-themed front room a steely look, while the adjoining bottle-service-only area offers private booths with individually-monitored stereo systems. As if the front door weren't enough, there are lines to get into every section of this club, aggressively manned by domineering security.
The immaculately groomed crowd is typical of most of trendy bars: straight, mid-20s to mid-30s, with a strong Upper East Side flavor and a stronger desire for bottle service. Hip-hop and rock flow into the first and second rooms, but the beautiful third VIP room is clearly the place to be--with its warm, taupe-colored living-room space complete with house music, metal mesh curtains and a tortoiseshell faux fireplace lining the back wall. |
