Famed New York City cocktail nook Goldbar lives up to its name, literally. The walls, ceiling, chandeliers, décor and skulls (yes, skulls) are gold plated and gold leafed. That's part of what originally attracted celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Lady Gaga, when Goldbar originally burst on the scene. The ultra-luxe ambiance of this Little Italy institution continues to deliver a sophisticated, ravishing nightlife experience to party people lucky enough to make it through the sometimes intimidating line at the door. The bar is in the front and offers ample seating and prime viewing as the beautiful people come and go. In back is the lounge, with cozy tables and just the right “what happens here stays here” vibe. Mixing between the two should be your goal: find time to dance and frolic in the lounge, then belly up to the bar for some serious drinking.
