Ohm Lounge- -A New Bar in New Orleans, the Ohm Lounge

By Sharon Keating, About.com

The Ohm Lounge:

The Ohm Lounge is one of the newer bars in New Orleans, and certainly one of the most unique. Billing itself as a "contemporary Asian-deco lounge," Ohm is located in the boutique hotel the Royal St. Charles. Ohm is a semicircle lounge whose decor is modern, but is influenced by both Japanese and Chinese traditions. It's bar-top is a rock garden, and floor-to-ceiling windows with wrap-around seating offer a great view of the city. This is a hangout for the hip late-night crowd.

Drinks and Music:

Premium sake and sake cocktails, French wines, Japanese and Belgian beer, martinis--the drinks are as cool as the lighting here. On Friday nights, DJs such as Wyldchile and Frenzi spin the music, and on Saturdays from 10PM-1AM, the group Simple Syrup provides live funky music.

Events:

Happy Hour is on weekdays from 5-8PM, but at that time every Wednesday is "Wine Down Wednesday," featuring free wine tastings and complimentary hors d'oeuvres.

Where:

Ohm is located in the Royal St. Charles Hotel, at 135 St. Charles Avenue. You can call at 504.587.1330, or view the website.
