What's also interesting is that Drai's Hollywood doubles as a 120-seat restaurant helmed by Chef Claude Segal before club hours. Hence the reason for all the seating area. But as we were fighting through the throngs of celebrities and entourages last night, we actually found ourselves wishing the place had less banquettes and tables as we needed more space to stand. So if you arrive later in the evening, there's a chance you will do more rubbing up against people you've never met than usual.
Drai again partnered with nightclub pros Cy and Jesse Waits to run the $15-million space and give it that Vegas jazz (the trio also runs Tryst, XS and Drai's After Hours.) Bottle service is king here. The cocktail servers wear black ultra-mini dresses that are bejeweled right where it matters and there are dancers who seductively dance around a stripper pole. Yes, we said dance around. In our vodka haze we asked one of the dancers to "spin around the pole!" and she told us that it was not allowed. So essentially, they just lean on it for support. Which is something we ourselves could have used later.
However, one thing that Drai's Hollywood doesn't have is after hours. This place will be shutting down at 2am. Yet if the sight of Drai dancing later in the night told us anything, it's that booth dancing is definitely allowed.
The club will officially open to the public on March 11th.
P.S. Yes, we know we giggled way too much in this video. We were unable to contain our excitement over the possibility of seeing Ryan Seacrest.
