thrill or kill

In Short

Expertly made mojitos and a sexy Soho crowd are just two reasons to visit this chic bar. Old French ads on the walls make it clear that this is a Francophile spot, though an extensive tapas menu offering Gallic and Moroccan snacks adds a colonial twist. (An international wine list also keeps trendy loiterers sated.) The place gets packed on the weekends, but the wide-open windows help relieve some of the claustrophobia.

What To Drink

Try a pitcher of mojitos, caiphirinas or red sangria.
