A swanky new lounge has opened at Venetian, The Dorsey.<\/p>\n

The new lounge sits in the former Bourbon Room space. Bourbon Room was a lounge themed to complement the hotel’s departed show, “Rock of Ages,” which relocated to Rio Las Vegas. “Rock of Ages” closes, once again, on Jan. 1, 2017.<\/p>\n

There will be a quiz.<\/p>\n

\"The
The Dorsey. Just the right amount of fancy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Dorsey does a 180 from the “rockin’ loud” Bourbon Room, delivering a more refined experience in well-appointed surroundings. (The 180-degree change is punctuated by the fact the bar no longer has video poker.)<\/p>\n

\"The
The Dorsey cost $2.5 million and was worth every penny.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Dorsey’s signature cocktail menu is replete with unique libations “designed by award-winning barman Sam Ross of New York City’s Attaboy fame.” We are clearly a dim-witted muttonhead because we have no idea what an “Attaboy” is or why it’s famous. However, we can attest to the fact Sam Ross knows his hooch.<\/p>\n

We tried the Banana Hammock and our socks were blown.<\/p>\n

Off.<\/p>\n

Related: Punctuation is hard.<\/p>\n

\"The
The Banana Hammock features two rums, lime, banana, orgeat and cinnamon. It was infinitely better than it sounds. Especially the orgeat thing. Which you’ll be Googling in three, two…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here’s The Dorsey cocktail menu<\/a> in a resolution that won’t make you squint like an albino in a tanning booth. Here are more<\/a> cocktails (including “Stirred & Boozy,” “Shorties” and “Punch Bowls”). Look here<\/a> for the champagne, wine and beer.<\/p>\n

Signature cocktails run in the $18 range, which may cause some Las Vegas regulars sticker shock. But $18 is the new $8, so it’s best to just settle in and enjoy the creativity of the cocktails.<\/p>\n

Or the ambiance.<\/p>\n

If you get our drift.<\/p>\n

\"The
Your elevated heart rate is duly noted and completely warranted.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The model-servers are friendly and helpful, as are The Dorsey’s bartenders.<\/p>\n

The Dorsey is 4,500-square-feet, in case square footage somehow adds to your enjoyment of a lounge. You freak.<\/p>\n

The space is warm and as comfortable and sophisticated as The Dorsey’s news release claims. There’s a lot of oak and brass and leather and marble.<\/p>\n

There are two areas in The Dorsey that provide a semi-private feel, the Cage and the Library.<\/p>\n

\"The
If you guessed this isn’t the Library, you’re right. Your future as a detective is assured.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Library, lined with hundreds of books, has a sweet fireplace. It blows smoke and it lit in a way that makes the smoke look like fire. It’s cozy, trust us.<\/p>\n

\"The
You remember books. It’s how people occupied themselves before memes and Facebook stalking.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The walls of The Dorsey are lined with digital displays featuring the work of a number of artists whose names we don’t recognize, such as Marilyn Minter, Poyen Wang and Jason Salavon.<\/p>\n

The Dorsey is on par with Clique at Cosmopolitan<\/a> and Skyfall Lounge at Delano.<\/p>\n

\"The
Beyond its dreamy bar, The Dorsey also has a DJ booth. We won’t hold that against it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you’re looking to knock something back on the cheap (ditto slamming or chugging), this probably isn’t the place. The Dorsey is, however, a place with an air of class, memorable cocktails and waitresses who will make you feel like the most interesting, attractive person in the world.<\/p>\n

\"The
Let’s infuse something, already.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Dorsey is open nightly from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. It’s located just off the main floor of the Venetian’s casino, near the hotel’s restaurant row.<\/p>\n
