New NYC bars and clubs

Traffic Bar & Lounge

Just added!

Stop. Go. Proceed with caution. Somewhat oddly, the theme at this vast, sleek and technologically advanced bi-level Midtown sports palace is the traffic light, as expressed via alcohol (and actual traffic lights mounted throughout), and its three signature drinks are colored accordingly: The Cosmo is red, the cucumber lemonade is yellow, and the apple martini is green. The food menu is more eclectic, however, and features Thai and Italian dishes alongside classic American staples like wings, burgers and steaks. For sports fans, Traffic's got two dozen flat screen TVs showing just about every sporting event and channel you can think of. Grab a handful of apple martinis and settle in.
