The girlfriend and I needed to kill an hour before the doors opened for the Vegas Uncork'd After Hours at Tom Colicchio's Craftsteak event. Rather than hit a blackjack table, we stepped into Rouge for a drink. Rouge occupies a circular-shaped space decked out in red. The two cocktail waitresses were garbed in what appeared to me to be a weird cross between a Catholic schoolgirl and a French maid outfit. Can you say, fetish overload?
It wasn't very crowded on this particular Thursday night at 9:30 with the few patrons divided evenly by those sitting at the bar and those sitting at a table. Sadly, Rouge doesn't offer a cocktail list...its mixology range being a choice of one liquor + a mixer + ice...repeat as necessary. That said, the bartender was personable and got me the beer I asked and made my girlfriend's drink without error. After our one drink, we moved on...our hour successfully killed.
In blackjack terms, Rouge is like getting dealt a "16".
