    Very special place, with two separate areas. The bar lounge is casual and comfortable, spaced out for intimate to large groups. Great decor and heaters. The dining indoor area is smaller and sophisticated, the main outdoor dining area is beautiful and spacious. Covered with heaters. Great, imaginative food and truly friendly service. Not cheap, but worth it. Especially loved the creative non-alcoholic menu, which lets you celebrate without booze.

    Rouge was cool! We chose to sit at the bar. The bartender was very busy and really did an excellent job. His cocktails are really creative too. They have a nice top shelf selection and the cocktail menu was such that I actually ordered on menu. The food menu is pretty limited but very good. Apparently we decided to try this out on a Persian holiday so the place was rockin'. Both the manager and the bartender were apologetic but we were fine with it. I'll definitely go back for a cocktail occasionally and probably try some food too.

    Lovely space with incredible views and a cool vibe, but the food and drinks were only so-so. Our server was very sweet, helpful, and friendly, but we had to wait a really long time for the check
