DESHUN SMITH IMAGING
Sunset on Belcourt, a restaurant and cigar lounge coming to Belcourt Avenue, will open this summer, and will feature cocktails, tapas, live music, and specialty cigars.
From the owners of Supper Club on Belcourt, Bungalow10, and Jar Tapas + Cocktail, this marks the fourth business venture in Hillsboro Village for business group Make a Play Hospitality, and completes Belcourt Square, the hospitality group’s vision all four businesses on Belcourt Ave.
The 3,400-square-foot patio space is located directly behind Supper Club on Belcourt and can be accessed through the side gate next to the restaurant or from a separate entrance on Wedgewood Avenue. The space includes lounge furniture, high top tables, and bar seating, as well as eight booths for bigger groups.
“I am a fan of cigars and feel this concept pairs nicely with our restaurants and cocktail club on Belcourt Avenue,” says co-owner Joseph Johnson. “After enjoying a great meal at one of our restaurants, what’s better than a cigar, a nice whiskey or wine, all while listening to great live music in the outdoor sunset? We’ve envisioned this as the final piece to the Belcourt square of concepts, and with the opening of Sunset, the vision can completely come to life.”
The menu will consist of tapas-style food and large plates, like lamb chops, NY strip steaks, and Cajun pasta. At the lounge, guests can order from a specialty cocktail menu, featuring like the Special Guidance Old Fashioned, Reverence On The Rocks, and Uncle Nearest Tea, as well as choose from a variety of cigars. Guests can also bring their own cigars to enjoy in an open-air atmosphere. Live music performances and DJ’s will provide the soundtrack for the restaurant and cigar lounge, which will be open year-round with a cover provided during the winter months.
