Editorial Review for The Living Room – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Plush, pillowy bar couches beg you to sink in and relax. In the glow of a neon-blue aquarium, young Financial District professionals mingle over pulsing dance music and sip from an immense selection of wines by the glass. The living-room theme is abandoned in the dining room in favor of formal table settings and plum-colored curtains flanking the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The Draw
Unlike other high-end lounges, the Living Room succeeds at being homey rather than haughty--there's no cover, no line (usually), no claustrophobic crowd and best of all, no attitude. The inventive martini list features everything from the classics (Manhattans, cosmos) to creative cocktails like the Rising Sun (made with sake, plum wine, Chambord, champagne and mangos). A gigantic menu offers fairly priced comfort-food favorites (Mom's pot roast) and Asian-influenced seafood (sesame tuna lo mein).

I just had an engagement party at the livingroom. The reserved area with couches and high top tables was perfect with plenty on space. The drinks were reasonably priced and the service was excellent. The appetizers served could have been better. I would highly recommend the livingroom. The prices, service, and ambiance were good.
Pros: Excellent service, great lounge
Cons: Food could have been better, Parking

the grilled chicken panini is the best chicken sandwich i have ever had. It comes with proscuito, sun dried tomato, fresh mozzarella, and pesto mayo on focaccia bread. I dont even like mayo but this is good. The atmosphere is nice as well, the couches are very comfortable. I havent been at night yet but from what I hear it is a great place to hang out. If you go try the chicken sandwich.
Pros: chicken sandwhich, couches, service
Cons: parking inthe area can be tough, but worth it.
