Mantra

52 Temple Pl., Boston, MA, (617) 542-8111.
Chain-metal curtains? You would think a goth hot spot, but it's just the opposite. Mantra delivers contemporary French-Indian cuisine with a carefully chosen wine list in the dining room. The curtains and stepped tables give way later in the evening to a nice-size dance floor and lounge area, where a chic clientele dances and sips drinks to international music. Club open Thurs., Fri., and Sat. from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. Dining room has daily lunch starting at 11:30 a.m., and dinner from 5:30 to 10 p.m. No cover.
