Tokya

In the quiet canyons of Midtown Manhattan after dark, a short stretch of East 58th Street has become a night-life micro district jammed with town cars, velvet ropes and paparazzi. Now a Japanese-inspired nightclub called Tokya has joined the fray. Across the street from Lavo and next door to the reality-star hub Tao, this subterranean space may be smaller and more intimate, but it parties just as hard.

Bottle service rules ($1,500 minimum at each table) with vodka starting at $400. À la carte cocktails are available at the bar ($10 to $18), and there’s a small selection of bottled beers ($10). From 5 to 11 p.m., sushi is served by the veteran chef Eiji Takase.
