See Sound Lounge

When the bartenders are this pretty (even—no, especially—the male ones), our internal warning light goes bright red, but quellesurprise, the hotties at See Sound Lounge mix great drinks, too. Add to that a huge, built-in flat screen that broadcasts swimming turtles and other ambient images, a techno/house DJ at the ready, a room full of furniture designed to turn strangers into friends, and the nicest bathrooms in town, and you’ve got the makings of an ultraslick nightspot. What makes this one different, however, is that they’ve got an amazing chef next door at Mistral—so amazing that he provides very upscale bar food for the kitchenless See Sound. So now, instead of meeting Mr. Right with a can of cheap beer in your hand, you can do it while delicately cutting into your Moroccan-style quail. 115 Blanchard St., 206-374-3SEE.
