Editorial Review for NV Penthouse Lounge – by Fred Schlatter

In Short
The line outside marks the location; the music and party din tempts from eight stories up. After IDs are checked (twice), guests take a short elevator ride up to a mirrored foyer. A smallish bar features giant pony skin-trimmed mirrors and lurid green lighting. The cream colored walls are punctuated by a black scroll motif, and shiny black chandeliers through dim light. VIP groups enjoy balcony seating with velvet banquets and cabana-like nooks.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Entrance is significantly slowed by the elevator setup, a detail that's frustrating for the patient partygoer who finally gets the nod from the outside bouncer.

Look Good

Champagne, as presumably is the case with most penthouses, is the drink of choice. Conveniently, the bar stocks several selections by the glass and bottle.

Parking

River North is not a good place to bring a car if you are not willing to pony up for valet. NV, with its $20 cover and pricey drink list, is not a good place to go if valet seems extravagant.
