Bellevue.com

Looking for a cozy spot to sip, dine, and unwind? Look no further than Rouge Cocktail Lounge in Old Bellevue. With its speakeasy-style atmosphere, plush seating, marble-backed bar, and art deco details, Rouge offers the perfect ambiance for a night out with friends or a romantic evening. And if you can't make it in person just yet, you can still check out the vibe at Rouge with a guided virtual tour of the space below.

But that's not all. Rouge recently launched a new ‘Supper Series’ menu, which features a rotating lineup of local pop-up kitchens. Their first collaboration is with Soul Fiend Seafood Kitchen, a local favorite known for their creative take on French Creole classics. The menu showcases a delicious fusion of Southern and French Creole flavors, such as gumbo, collards, boil, and po'boy.

But Soul Fiend Seafood Kitchen also brings new favorites to the table, like Brisket Mac, Steak Bites, Cajun Salmon Sliders, and more. We hear that desserts are coming and are crossing our fingers for beignets as a dessert option!

Of course, a visit to Rouge Cocktail Lounge wouldn't be complete without sampling one of their new signature cocktails. We highly recommend trying Bar Manager @B0bbytsunami's suggested pairing of the gumbo and collards with the smoky concoction, Fire in the Field. This cocktail features Xicaru Mezcal, Suze, Cynar 70, fresh strawberries, lemon juice, and simple syrup, served in a rich hickory smoke bath. It's a drink that will awaken your senses and warm your soul.

Don't miss out on the chance to indulge in the best of both worlds: artisanal cocktails and mouthwatering cuisine with the Supper Series at Rouge Cocktail Lounge. We're excited to see who's next in the lineup and can't wait to come back for more delicious eats and drinks.

Rouge Cocktail Lounge is also calling out to local chefs and restaurants with a passion for food and a desire to showcase their culinary skills and creativity to join their Supper Series as a pop-up kitchen partner. This is an exciting opportunity to collaborate with Rouge's skilled bartenders and create a one-of-a-kind dining experience for customers.

If this sounds like something you'd love to do, don't hesitate to contact Rouge Cocktail Lounge at events@rougebellevue.com. They are always looking for new and exciting pop-up kitchen partners to join their 'Supper Series'.
