You'll eventually come upon a cordial doorman who will be happy to show you to your table. A steel, spiral staircase leads to the second level where you'll find a full-service bar and two rows of cocktail tables that provide a tight, bird's eye view of the stage. Suffice it to say, there's no shortage of groovy sightlines in this joint. The lighting is dim with a romantic, red tint, perfect for cocktails and getting in the mood. Well, if you have to ask . . .
Jazz is the bill of fare at the Backroom.
Any deviations from traditional jazz are either funky or contemporary in nature. Maybe he should give the Vegas circuit another shot. Backroom also sells its own brand of cigar. But they're mentioned on table tents with Backroom t-shirts, so hopefully people buy them as souvenirs and don't actually light them up. But there's always the possibility, so if you're particularly repulsed by stogies, there's a table on the main floor directly under a huge air filtration system.
