The
larger of two bars in STK Restaurant, this trendy
nightspot sizzles and is a celebrity magnet. The
décor dazzles with color, the vibe is pure
sexy, and the crowd is hot. There’s even a
pair of swings hanging from the ceiling. Great DJs
and hip music make this a Hollywood winner. Just
watch out for the papparazi on your way in…that
is, if you can get in. Good luck!
