BlackBook Lowdown

Richie Akiva and Scott Sartiano team up with Jeffrey Jah and Ronnie Madra and strike again. “One of a Kind” suggested by name backed somewhat by top design. Wood-paneled exterior exudes masculine charm, matched by ostrich-leather seating and fireplace inside. Horseshoe banquettes parked on zigzagging black and white floor. Babel-like assemblage of letters for wall art, plus paired psychosexual paintings. Smoking patio for your cancer-courting convenience. Don’t expect much uniqueness by way of the moneyed crowd, however.

Pretentious. Obviously. But somehow still personal and fun. Mirrored smoking lounge begs for you to pick your dirty habit back up. Talented staff and worthy DJs. A velvet rope worth breeching, if your wallet or arm-candy can swing it.
