“Her name was Lola; she was a showgirl, with yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there.” You won’t find Lola or me sailing across the bar at the Copa, but you can join the effervescent crowd at the newly opened night club. The famous Copa, (short for Copacabana) opened in 1940 and has undergone several metamorphoses and changes of location over the decades. This latest rebirth in the Theater District features an all-glass rooftop private event space with floor-to-ceiling windows, a retractable glass roof, an interior bar, and a full kitchen. “Music and passion were always the fashion.”

Catch, a multi-level seafood haven, is a globally-influenced restaurant embracing a new model of city-style dining that is more fluid than formatted. Unlike the clear three-course model that defines traditional fine dining, Catch fosters a more relaxed and social approach, where food prepared by Top Chef winner Hung Huynh hits the table in a steady stream of shareable cuisine. This modern yet welcoming space features two floors of dining, a raw bar, a cocktail bar, and an enclosed rooftop lounge.
