Editorial Review for Redwood Room – by Daniel Liszt
The Scene
Ian Schrager, the man behind New York City's '70s glam-club Studio 54, is responsible for putting the shine on this swanky destination. Amid soaring ceilings and polished redwood walls, businessmen scope well-heeled eye candy and vie for busy bartenders' attention. Amorphous wall art appears on a handful of plasma-screen TVs and designer couches line the perimeter, resting atop tiger-striped carpet.
The Draw
The Clift is a popular place to stay for visiting pop stars, so locals come here to be part of a scene, with hopes of spotting someone famous. The room's centerpiece is a tall, back-lit shelf that highlights the bar's quality liquors, many of which are used in the signature martini drinks, like the delicious Lychee-tini. DJs spin music (Wednesday-Saturday), but this is not a dance club.

I love the interior of the redwood room, I love the drinks at the redwood room. I hate the fools that hang out there. My advice, go with some friends for happy hour and be out by 7pm.
Pros: ambiance
Cons: crowd

My hairstylist and a few friends recommended drinks before dinner at this bar. POSH is all I have to say. Drinks were made promptly and tasted great. Call girls were available and plenty of Sugar-daddies hovering over us!
