Olive & Ivy

Beginning around 4 p.m., the large bar at this upscale Mediterranean restaurant fills with well-dressed men and women, often lined up three deep for cocktails and small plates. Part bar, deli, gelateria, market and restaurant, the large space has high ceilings, glass walls doubling as wine "cellars" and walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, finished with dramatic deep-red curtains and pretty pendant lights. The generous waterfront patio is appointed with low couches and tables, as well as fountains and decorative trees. On Fridays and Saturdays, Mr. P-Body spins a mix of new wave, electro-pop and up-tempo lounge music.
