Colors, the Best Place to Throw a Mad Men Party in NYC

Last week, I checked out Colors in NOHO near Astor Place.  Their daily happy hour specials are a steal for New York, $5 calamari, meatballs, cocktails and sangria until 8pm.  If their Happy Hour menu doesn't suit you their signature cocktail list (Passionita, Orange Tricycle) and beer selection won't break the bank either, but the REAL REASON you should check out Colors is for its awesome art deco interior and total Mad Men vibe--velvet booths, marble bar, candle light.  If there was one place Roger Sterling and Don Draper would be caught eating dinner/cheating with their secretaries, it would be at Colors.

The restaurant is right near Astor Wines and Butter at 417 Lafayette Street.  The staff is super friendly and can accommodate parties of any size.  I definitely recommend this place for a Mad Men-themed holiday party or just to burn some of that advertising steam.  You may need to check whether smoking is still allowed though...
