Revolution Rock Bar is a new venue with a tribute to all things rock 'n' roll. This bar, lounge and restaurant has two floors. Dual DJ booths and a stage fit for a rock star, or a band of them, allows for multiple live entertainment options. The look is sexy, innovative and comfortable with banquettes trimming the walls, glossy dining and cocktail tables decorated with unique images of classic rock performers and cow print ottomans to accessorize. The VIP Red Room allows up to 20 guests to have a great time in a more private atmosphere. We have also installed an old-fashioned, black and white photo booth so you never forget your revolutionary experience. There will be live music three nights per week and DJ's spinning rock 'n' roll in between. The music will range from Alternative, Rock, Classic Rock and Punk Rock. The underground "Rock Lounge" is perfect for private affairs.
It comes as a surprise that a rock-themed bar would be located in the buttoned-up Financial District. Dimly lit and filled with leather banquettes and concert photos, Revolution stands in stark contrast to the...
