It's either dingier places or over-the-top, see and be seen by a bunch of tools, dance clubs and bars.

I suggest you try the Redhead. It's a piano bar, but the music isn't too loud and doesn't interfere with conversation. The bar at Gene & Georgetti's is pretty quiet and it's nice. Also, the bars at the Fairmont, the Intercontinental, the Four Seasons fit the bill.
