Hot Spot: St. Yves, 1220 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Washington, DC

Deets: The latest DC hot spot opens in the heart of Dupont Circle. St. Yve's garners itself "DC's most beautiful lounge and nightclub."

St. Yves is being launched by owners David Chung and Ki Jun Sung, who have previously started Capitale, Chinese Disco, George, and K Street Lounge.

Swatchroom restored the historical landmark’s 12-foot soaring arched windows and classic vestibule with period mosaic tile. 

A quartz-topped main bar, a grand chandelier made up of half a mile of custom gold chain links, a dramatic staircase, and cotton candy-like ceiling tulle make up this 5,000 square foot, two-story clubhouse.

The 150-seat spot, with room for 280 standing, will function in both day-to-night settings open for corporate happy hours, special events, and late-night party people.

Osetra, Beluga, Sevruga, and salmon varietals, will be available by caviar service. 

Cheeses and house-cured charcuterie also offered with toast, house-made jams and pickled vegetables. Other bar snacks include spiced Marcona almonds, house-made patés, and roasted chicken salad on a baguette. 

Rare bourbons will also be offered.

Hint For The Average Socialite: From June 1, 2017 St. Yves will be open Tuesdays-Saturdays starting at 5PM. Bottle service reservations start at $300. For more information visit www.saintyvesdc.com.
