Owned and operated by spouses Chef Rocco Carulli and Owen Bale, R House has become the ultimate hotspot for top-tier hospitality, drag shows and other hosted events. R House is toasting 10 years in business by unveiling completely redesigned bar and dining areas.
“The R House experience is unique and continues to keep guest engagement at the forefront. The new design is chicer, but still inviting, the libations more flavorful, but still fun, and of course, our Queens are still sensational and over-the-top, but now they’re elevated on golden stages and beautifully lit,” says Bale. “We really revved up the production value across the board. It’s next level!”
Even after the remodel, the ambiance at R House continues to be vibrant and high-energy. Guests are now welcomed by a dramatic mirror entrance wall with bronze accents and step beyond into a world of elevated pastel tones and floor-to-ceiling drapery. Juxtaposed against this opulence are multiple cheeky neon signs and disco ball installations.
The outdoor patio evokes a summery coastal lounge feel with sunflower yellow banquettes and white and mustard striped umbrellas. Custom art deco-inspired exterior murals offer a nod to the neighborhood’s popular Wynwood Walls, an outdoor museum showcasing large-scale works by some of the world’s best-known street artists.
