Monkey Bar
Description
After a few years in disrepair, the Monkey Bar was purchased and returned to its former glory in 2009 by <em>Vanity Fair</em> editor Graydon Carter, his wife Anna and hotelier Jeff Klein. The dining room’s lush red leather banquettes and dim, attractive lighting have restored the distinctive thrill of dining in a restaurant that is both glamorous and cozy, and the sensibility hearkens back to a bygone era of style and etiquette. Renowned illustrator Edward Sorel's three-paneled mural pays homage to Jazz Age legends including Duke Ellington, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Mae West, Billie Holliday and George Gershwin.
