4. Pro-Tips

In the colder months, Lookout installs its exclusive pop-up igloo bar that consists of six heated igloos to keep you warm, making this a year-round, day and night destination. They are primarily given out on a first-come, first-serve basis, so arrive early to ensure one is available. Each sits eight to ten people comfortably, and fleece blankets are provided to kick up the cozy factor. One of its signature traits is the ability to call for a drink by the press of a button, which will illuminate the igloo and notify a cocktail server of your request.

The dress code at Lookout and Outlook is contemporary, casual, and classy; baseball hats, sweatpants, sleeveless shirts for men, and swimwear are prohibited, and you must wear shoes.

5. Look Inside

Lookout is The Envoy’s own slice of paradise up in the clouds. Its uniquely shaped bar is complemented with outdoor and indoor, intimate seating for groups, as well as glowing fire pits. The radiating light and glass make up a modern, forward-thinking look.

The interior of Outlook is spacious and uncluttered. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors offer a view of the patio outdoors, and they retract in the warmer weather. The opposite wall is adorned with funky light fixtures and spherical bulbs intended to represent the city lights. A large, rectangular bar is the room's focal point, tastefully displaying liquor bottles on shelves in the center. To top it off, guests have a full view of the on-goings in the glass-enclosed kitchen.
