Les Rouges Cucina Cocktails - Genoa

In my 15 years of hospitality experience, mixologist are always too cool for school. This place is no different. I really wanted to like it…I had one night in Genova. I walked in early, no reservation. I was seated at the worse table, facing a wall. There were plenty of other tables available…the gentleman who sat me; is one of the main faces of the group. He told me everything was reserved. I then asked if a seat at the bar would open up. The response was his girlfriend was sitting at the bar and will probably be awhile. Such poor service. Any owner or manger would prioritize their guests. Thankfully, I walked up the street to Hostaria Ducale (a Michelin star restaurant) and was seated promptly. I had a wonderful a la carte meal, local wine and all without a reservation.

Beautiful place but there was something off about the mojito, might be my own personal taste but i expected something better for the price. Also only played covers of popular songs, also not really my personal preference.. Staff was very nice though

Awesome bar in a historical building with the original pictural ceilings still intact

Lovely place, cool drinks. Good food. Was a bit crowded, reservation is recommended.

We had the most amazing time at Les Rouge. The setting of this restaurant/bar is incredible. A family residence palace built in the 16th century, still owned by the same family, bombed in WW2 and walls show it. Time has taken a toll on the frescoes but somehow it all adds to the charm. We went there on a Sunday, which usually a slow day. The owner Benny is an excellent host and he gave a lot of attention and answered all our questions. It was like having a private dining experience! The cocktails are amazing (I think you can literally get anything you want) and food is good too Benny walked us through the multiple rounds of post meal alcohols. Can't thank him enough for his hospitality.
