A three-story complex with 25,000 square feet of indoor space and 10,000 square feet of outdoor terrace, Chakra Asian Cuisine & Lounge can accommodate as many as 2,000 guests (1,500 indoor and 500 outside), while hosting multiple events simultaneously throughout eight separate areas—all equipped with audio, video, and intelligent lighting capabilities. A true Asian lounge, the menu is authentic Thai and modern Pan-Asian prepped by chefs Nayana "Nina" Lasongyang and Karlo Pacheco. The venue's focal point is a Buddha floating above a reflecting pool with a 30-foot rain feature, with a waterfall coming down from the second floor. The entertainment complex also features a center stage, water fountains, a gold-embedded pink terrazzo dance floor, seven bars, four V.I.P. areas, a spacious terrace overlooking Ocean Drive, 400 seats in total, and a private V.I.P. room that can accommodate 90 to 120 guests. Buyouts are available, and the lounge has already catered to Super Bowl parties featuring Diddy, Jenny McCarthy, and Carmen Electra.
