The Scene

Within an unassuming office building façade, the contemporary, casual Buzz has an industrial loft interior of exposed bricks and high wooden beams. The design emphasis is on boogying down. Motley spotlights penetrate the large dance floor, where footloose young men and women show their moves.

 

The Selection

With three full-size bars stocked with premium liquor, wine and beer, you'll be sure to find your poison here, and be forewarned, the Buzz bartenders make a stiff drink. Try house special the King Bee (Belvedere Vodka, splash of M+R Dry Vermouth and an olive or twist) ($9.50) or a bartender's favorite, an energizing Black Jeans and Raspberry Stolli ($9). Bottle service is available and there's even a specialty champagne bar. The kitchen is open 3pm to 4am, but appetizers like the chicken fingers and beef empanadas taste like microwave munchies.
