01 — The Room

A little theatre.
A lot of gin.

The best rooms are the ones you have to be told about.

Behind an unmarked door off the lobby, down a marble stair, the Gilded Room has been pouring since the year Lindbergh landed. The banquettes are original. The ice is not. We keep forty-one seats, a nine-foot Steinway and a strict rule against anything resembling a hurry.
