25 YEARS IN THE MAKING

Celebrating a quarter of a century at Rouge in Inglewood the best way we know – with you.

Whether from our garden, a local farm or nearby waterway, every dish at Rouge is shaped by the season and guided by your hosts – Dean, Rey, Paul and Olivier.

For twenty-five years, Rouge has been a place of discovery – where ingredients are celebrated, traditions are reimagined, and every plate tells a story.

From our first service to today, our commitment has remained the same: to craft exceptional dining experiences that spark connection, curiosity, and joy.

This milestone is not only a celebration of the past, but an invitation to the future. As we honour the artistry and passion that brought us here, we are also leaning boldly into the next chapter – exploring new flavours, new techniques, and new ways to bring people together at the table.
