A SUBTERRANEAN HAVEN FOR CREATURES OF THE NIGHT

BY IAN SCHRAGER

SUNSET IS A GLAMOROUS HAVEN AMONG BARS IN WEST HOLLYWOOD AND IT’S ALL THANKS TO IAN SCHRAGER. THE VENUE’S STORY TAKES SHAPE IN A DARK BASEMENT, LATER ILLUMINATED BY THE IDEA OF BRINGING TO LIFE A NEW KIND OF GATHERING PLACE THAT REVIVES THE ICONIC CLUBS OF THE SUNSET STRIP FROM THE 60S AND 70S. IT’S A TRIBUTE TO THE AMERICAN ECONOMIC BOOM, WHERE GREAT COCKTAILS AND GREAT MUSIC WERE ALWAYS AT THE FOREFRONT.

DISCOVER A PORTFOLIO OF COCKTAILS THAT WEST HOLLYWOOD HAS TO OFFER IN A CLUBHOUSE LIKE NO OTHER, WITH ITS POOL TABLE AND PRIVATE ROOMS. THIS PLACE FEELS LIKE A MAGNET FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR INTIMACY AND FUN, SURROUNDED BY DARK WOOD-PANELED WALLS AND DEEP GREEN VELVET SEATING, EVOKING A SPEAKEASY VIBE.
