Sleek-and-chic would be the best way to describe Pier 88, as a lavish lounge feel pervades the entire space. Yes, there’s plenty of marble, mirror, and crystalline light fixtures, but its riverside location is taken into account too, in the form of wooden plank floors, lush greenery, and rattan-sequel chairs and couches. The terrace is especially romantic, with unobstructed views of the Nile and a front row seat for the fanning breezes that blow off her waters.
