Bathed in the velvety red glow of darkroom lights, this swanky corner bar offers a welcome alternative to a long ride home on the F train for city-weary denizens of Southern Slope. Like the customers, the atmosphere is relaxed, with cushy, broken-in couches and armchairs where the jeans-and-rumpled-polo set lounges and sips drinks from the well-apportioned bar. DJ styles vary by the day, ranging from jazz to hip-hop to indie rock to soul. Aspiring troubadours should look into the open mic night, Tuesdays at 9 pm. The drink list features a bevy of flavored martinis—everything from chocolate to watermelon—which the casual patron would do well to sample. “The Perfect Martini”—a Ketel One creation with three bulbous olives—came close to living up to its name.
