The Room (CLOSED)

Off the beaten track in the ritzy South of Fifth (SoFi) area, the Room is something of a haven: A small, candlelit beer-and wine-only bar where it’s quiet enough to have an audible conversation (although the later it gets, the more incoherent the crowd becomes). The soundtrack beats to a decidedly different drum, fusing indie, retro and offbeat (hip-hop fans are out of luck).
