This Hollywood landmark and unique supper club,
established in 1964, is a swanky-retro hideaway, a
popular haunt of hipsters, cocktail-aficionados and
Hollywood types who love to see and to be seen. The
air is filled with 60ies glamour, a time when women
wore petticoats and seamed stockings.
Jazz, Swing, Martinis and Manhattans dominate the
vibe and ispire and infuse the cheerful crowd. Black-
clad bartenders present a top-notch cocktail expertise.
Sidle up to the bar for a glass of the sweet house classic,
Blood and Sand cocktail.
The grande dining room is arranged in a radiant-kitschy
outfit with high ceilings, white leather booths, bright-
orange and gold-shiny accents. Dining guests can choose
from a Italian-leaning menu. This 60ies style sanktuary
seems only missing the obligatory cigar smoke and illegal
gambling.
This ornate revelry's highlight is the timeless lounge act
of Marty and Elayne. The couple has been performing
here up to 5 nights a week since 1982 and has always
been the center of attraction. Their rendition of "Stayin'
Alive" is a kitschy treat. Their famous performance takes
place around a grande keybord and drumms - of course,
while high arched walls made of rock, gold metal-encased
pendant lamps and elegant leather booths make for a
glorious scenery. The walls tell the long story of this
institution: thousands of photographs of icons and legends
line the walls and represent fame and glory.
I had a fabulous time at the The Dresden Room, savoring
sumptuous cocktails while having a wonderful conversation
amid a Jazz-infused, vibrant atmosphere and glamorous
scenesters.
