Plush benches line the walls of this ultramodern U Street lounge, but hardly anyone sits. Tables with bottle service and Asian-fusion appetizers start at $350 and climb to $1,500 for the VIP loft deck on weekends. The relaxed, upscale lounge is a solid alternative to the club scene for nights when you’d rather avoid someone else’s sweat on your back. The 8 PM last call for $5 drinks and “appeteasers” is a good reason to arrive in time for happy hour (Tuesday through Friday 5:30 to 8).
