Description
Over 8,000 square feet of space is divided between an interior Main Lounge, a seasonal Sun Deck, an open-air East Terrace, and a West Terrace featuring a retractable roof cover. The venue incorporates explicit Gossip Girl references—including photos of Chuck Bass, show clips on the screens, and an XOXO cocktail—alongside server-recommended drinks like the Ginferno and smoky pear passion paired with bites such as lobster tacos and truffle tater tots.
