Starting at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, the much-anticipated lounge Republic Reign will start serving cocktails, wine and "global cuisine," according to General Manager Evan Powell. Last weekend the bar's fancy chandeliers were aglow for a post-Fashion Week party, and the pictures over here give a little taste of the ambiance.
A word to VIP types: bottle service will pop off at 10 p.m. nightly. Though the space has a patio, Republic Reign is opening up the interior first, so don't expect to enjoy a cocktail spritzer in the open air just yet. Yes, there have been delays along the way, but it seems safe to consider the countdown until carafes of negronis on.
