This rooftop bar has made the perfect landing in New York. Directly underneath the iconic, retro-style, red neon Empire Hotel sign, it's an 8,000-square-foot-space where beautiful people sip delicious cocktails and take in the view, which overlooks Columbus Circle, Lincoln Center and the Hudson River, depending on where you're standing. The bar's east terrace features lounge chairs, cabanas and a smoking area; the west has a bar with a retractable roof, so guests can sit outside during any season. An indoor area with banquettes, low lighting and a wall of windows ain't too shabby either.

Formerly the Improv, this snug club routinely churns out some truly fun nights, especially if you're into sketch comedy; the Wednesday-Friday show put on by Chicago City Limits stands as the city's longest-running improv show. The space is intimate, so if you sit close to the stage be aware that one or more of the performers that night may make a joke or two at your expense. Looking for star quality? The Broadway advertises that each performance features at least four national headliners who have appeared on shows like Letterman, The Tonight Show, Saturday Night Live, or Mad TV.

Carolines on Broadway is one of the most established, famous, and recognized stand-up comedy clubs in the United States. The roster of past performers includes Saturday Night Live cast members and sitcom regulars--Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chapelle, Janeane Garofalo and Anthony Clark--though Carolines also cultivates tomorrow's best by hosting a weekly New Talent Night. Early arrivals can dine on menu of American, Italian and Pan-Asian classics in the supper lounge prior to snagging stage-side seats in the Showroom. There's not a bad seat in the house.
