The entrance is discreet, but if you can find it, this is the perfect place to get an apres-ski drink at their, um, Apres-Ski Happy Hour (so cleverly named).  The atmosphere is dim and hip, but not overly loud like other lounges.  A group of friends took me here for my birthday, and we made ourselves comfortable on a large, cozy couch in a semi-private corner.  There is a large flat-screen T.V. that plays movies, so that was kinda a fun addition to the evening.

The appetizers were amazing!  Here's what I recommend:
* agedashi tofu (fried tofu with green scallions): very crispy and flavorful
* rangoons (fried wontons with a creamy filling): like fancy cream cheese wontons from Chinese restaurants
* crack fries (fries with shaved parmesan and truffle oil): so good that you think they really did put crack in it
* dragon scales (tuna wrapped in mint leaves and fried): so good that you think they put crack in this, too

The sushi rolls here are really good.  They have your standard rolls (California, spider, catepillar, dragon, spicy tuna, etc.), but they also have unique rolls (the Rasta roll has walu, mango, cucumber, avocado, tobiko, and sesame wrapped in soy paper).  I commend Lobar for using real crab in their California Roll!

They have lots of cocktails, sake, and wine to choose from.  My friend says the ginger martini is one of her favorite drinks.  EVER.  (She also doesn't get out very much).
