Drinks at Next Level Lounge

My Yuzu Old Fashioned with a view!

Seattle's list of rooftop lounges is getting longer every year. It's nowhere close to NYC and Chicago, but we're slowing getting there! Rooftop Lounges are one of my favorite things in life, so when I find a good one in Seattle, it's a good day. One of the newest ones is Next Level Lounge, the rooftop lounge by Fogo De Chao. So, the same menu, but eleven floors up with incredible downtown views.

I recommend making a reservation, and they're easy to get. I messed up though by not adding that I wanted an outdoor table. When I made the reservation, I didn't know there was an indoor section, so we were seated at a table there. I was however able to walk outside at any time with my drink and take in the views. My husband and I liked it so much we'll be returning with our family in a few weeks. And this time I did make a reservation for the outdoor patio section!

The views of the city were amazing, and the evening was so pretty, with lots of sun and perfect lighting. We just had some drinks, but the hostess greeted us with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine, which was such a nice touch! We were also given two complimentary orders of the Brazilian soft cheesy rolls. This was our third visit to Fogo De Chao, the last time being downstairs in their main dining room last year, and once at their Bellevue location. They have great customer service, amazing all-day happy deals on food and drink, and solid cocktails.

I sipped on a Yuzu Old Fashioned, and my husband ordered a classic Old Fashioned. Both drinks were super similar, and I couldn't really tasty any yuzu in my drink, but it still tasted incredible. We also shared a Good As Gold drink which featured honey and black walnut bitters. This was so tasty, and I would probably order it next time. I noticed their dessert menu looked really yummy, so stay tuned for next time when I try a couple of those!
