Quick Tips:
1. Located right across the way from Jean Philippe Patisserie and on the casino route.
2. The bar itself was open seating when we got there on a Friday night.
3. For the life of me, I cannot remember a deliciously fruity drink that my girlfriend loved, but if I recall it was the highlight of our time at the bar.
I've had drinks at both Bar Moderno and City bar and I would heartily tell people to head to City Bar rather than Bar Moderno. Though Bar Moderno is definitely for those wanting to be seen or for people watching, City Bar just has better service and better drinks. I don't believe we were ever ignored by the waitress in the very busy room.
There was a drink that made a great impression on my girlfriend. It was a fruity drink that was very delicious. Overall, this was a great place to take her since we needed suggestions for cocktails that she would want to drink. The cocktail waitress hit the nail on the head with the suggestion and kept us in good spirits through the night.
The only reason this place isn't a five star spot is that it is much harder to feel like you're in the middle of all the action since it is slightly closed off. Still, I would probably head back to City Bar before heading down the way to Bar Moderno again.
