“ Very surprised by this place! My husband booked it on first table and if I’m honest, I often find a lot of places to be very average - not here! Thoroughly impressed by the food. Portion size was just right, great flavors, perfectly cooked, beautiful plating. We split the Mac n cheese as a starter, then had the beef cheek and lamb shank. Thought the meal couldn’t be any better and then we were blown away by the desserts. We had the sticky date pudding and flourless brownie. Not sure which was better. Highly recommend. All in all, great dining experience. ”
“ The service is friendly, attentive and quick. Great atmosphere, good music, and most importantly awesome food. This was my third time here and it has never failed me. I recommend having the beef cheek. Can't wait to go again! ”
“ My first visit was with my friend and their slow cooked beef cheeks tastes so good that I brought my family there a week later. Pretty quiet during lunch hours. There are both indoor and outdoor seating. They provide blanket and heater on a cold day. Excellent services. We spoke to both owners and they were so friendly. They use the freshest ingredients with the perfectly balanced taste profile. Perfect for those special occasions. They serve the best kumara (sweet potatoes) chips. ”
“ First time visit and fabulous food and customer service... My favorite Eggs Benedict ever... we'll be back thanks so much ”
“ Delicious food, amazing service, and beautiful atmosphere. The waitress was very kind and you can tell the chefs put a lot of care into the food. The owner was very nice, too. Would definitely recommend this place. ”
“ Had a lovely dining experience last night at rouges! Service was friendly and prompt. Order fried chicken as a starter and was recommended the lamb shank as a main. Fried chicken was crispy and paired well with the sauce it came with. Lamb shank was delicious and pleasantly surprised with the portion size! Finished off with the sticky date pudding, also delicious. Will definitely be back to try the breakfast/lunch menu ”
“ The lamb shank & beef sirloin were fine although the fish wasn't cooked thoroughly the first time. The receipt didn't print. The atmosphere was lovely, although it would've been better if the curtains to the wc was closed. ”
