"We chose an afternoon booking and expected good service. How wrong we were. Several items we off the menu. We waited an hour and a half for our mains. The pasta dishes had almost no sauce and we had to ask for more for four...of the dishes. The bill was incorrect and when challenged the Manager was abrupt and intransigent when a suggestion was made to him as to how he might correct it. He stated that ‘if’ he did change the bill it would be ‘his’ decision, not ours, and would be a good will gesture on his behalf. Not good, not good at all. We expected more from this restaurant."

"Love the simplicity of the menu. The food I've had here is great. I love the chicken sandwich and the house salad. The olives are wonderful for a starter. I have had the roasted chicken with leeks a few times and really enjoy the sauce. The wines are great here as well. Over all a simple, enjoyable food experience that made me come back twice in a week when I was last visiting London. The location is also fabulous."

"my wife and I had a very nice lunch on Saturday, but I was not served what I ordered. the menu had changed recently and I was not advised when I ordered. I ordered a sharing plate that consisted of a selection of cold meat, rillettes, brot and a baked camembert with caramelized wobbles. this was still on the menu in the restaurant and also on the cafe rouge website in the internet. what I was served were six sausages, garlic bread, hummus and a baked cader. it was nice, but I don't think it was worth the same price as the choice of cold meat, etc. I think the personal should have said that the menu would have changed if I had ordered and I had ordered something else. as usual the service was first class and all staff was very helpful and friendly."

"Been to this branch many many times over the last 5 10 years and this last visit was the worst. The manager in charge on that evening was actually almost annoyed with us for everything we bought to her attention. 5 adults and 2 kids sat down to eat around 4pm/430pm on a Tuesday evening, all of a sudden lights went down completely dark we asked them to put lights back up, after all its not valentines night, there are only 3 other tables which are a mixed group of friends and we would like to see what we are eating. Manager said welll my area manager told me we need to dim the lights to make it romantic and if they drive by and see its bright i will get in trouble!! have you ever heard of such nonsense!! We alerted her to the fact there are only 3 other tables and clearly none are having a romantic meal and we cannot eat like this, she said ok i will put it up but soon i will put it down again or i will get in trouble..... When the starters came, i was sharing the chicken liver pate with my father. He had a few mouthfuls and said to me take some, as i looked over to the plate i saw a huge black long hair mixed throughout the chutney that came with the pate. I almost threw up, i got up walked over to closest waitress and said we cannot eat this there is a huge hair in it look. No immediate apology and no visit from staff to ask what shall we do. We ordered another after some discussion on our table BUT without the chutney. To be honest if it was just myself and husband, kids we would have got up and left at that point but i didnt want to cause more upset to the already tense atmosphere in this restaurant. The meals came, then a few sweets for a couple of us. The bill is requested and arrives and i have already informed them of my 2for1 meerkat meals code which i have given them and that i want the bill to reflect the issue tonight. £3 off is what they gave us! I told the member of staff closes to us, i am not happy with this and almost insulted us by taking such a low amount. The manager lady comes over, is there a problem? yes what is it then???!!! I said yes, you gave us £3 off for that disgusting problem and its insulting,you are lucky we didnt leave. She said well i have to explain all these discounts to my area manager, i said all these discounts are not a 'gesture of goodwill ' this is what we are due based on our code and should not be part of what you are doing to deal with this situation. I told her i wish i took a photo of the hair before sending back and maybe the area manager would be happier!!! i told her its un fair, she took £10 off in total. We paid and left, with no tip either, something we never do. I have escalated this problem to head office today as their online feedback form is actually not working convenient timing) but the whole experience annoyed us. £115 we paid in total its not a huge amount but its the principle and they way the manager dealt with is, was very rude, insulting and unprofessional. She event went as far as saying 'the chutney comes ready made, we cant control what we find in it ' i said i couldn 't care less where it was made, that huge long hair is your problem. The rest of the staff i have to say were not rude."

"I've been to other branches of Itsu several times and this had by far the poorest selection across the board. The sushi in particular was limited to just salmon and vegetarian options. If the prices could make you think you were in a high quality restaurant, the atmosphere, cleanliness of the toilets (no soap) and food quality (which was fine but unspectacular) would soon bring you back down to earth. It wasn't bad, but the food quality and variety should be considerably better for what they charge."

"Service was very slow, only two people serving (one of them remained behind bar). Eventually got drinks order took after 10 minutes then another 10 minutes for delivery to table. Waitress was not writing down orders so forgetting things. Not sure why they do that, customers want orders written down!! When asked if I wanted my minute steak cooked pink or well done I asked for pink. Didn't realise pink meant RAW! Would have asked for medium had I had known, but wasn’t given the option. Didn't say anything as waitress was clearly overwhelmed as it was. Steak was supposed to come with rocket but was only given 4 or 5 leaves as a pathetic garnish at best. Picture attached. Whole restaurant felt rundown and in desperate need of a makeover, feels like Cafe Rouge is on its last legs, going downhill very fast, disappointing and sad. I’ll be very surprised if it’s still open this time next year."

"Shown to a table promptly, it was not set with any cutlery, serviettes etc. waitress wiped half of the table only. Ordered food and the starter of calamari arrived which was so small it was laughable. We Both ordered sirloin steaks and unfortunately my partners was 30% gristle. We highlighted this to the server who replied with ‘oh sorry about that’ . Asked for the bill and service was added and nothing taken off for the inedible steak. The restaurant is looking tired, dirty and need of an urgent refurb. The toilets weren’t great either. Overall a dreadful experience. I guess they get a lot of business due to its location right next to St Paul’s."

"Just returned from having afternoon tea with my family at the Bath branch. To say it was disappointing is an understatement. The menu was suppose to include quiche, sausage roll and French bread with melted cheese and ham as the savoury. What arrived was 1 small bread stick ....no filling! 1 slice of quiche and 2 sausage rolls. There weren't 2 of all the cakes and 2 of these were dumped on the plate upside down. The only saving grace was that we didn't have to pay full price as we used the eat out, help out reduction .... however this hadn't been applied to our bill and we had to remind them. This was not the best experience for our first time eating out post lockdown....we certainly won't be going again."

"After I have eaten many of the restaurants stacked from late, I'm looking for the interesting when I have penetrated the menu. cafe rouge met my “off slopes” needs with exciting things like the plucked tortellini, sweet risotto and croquettes. it is a chain, yes, but with that in maidstone there is at least one guaranteed quality seal. service, indoor area, food preparation, teller presentation was error-free. they feel like something else and European, they go to the cafe rouge."

"Quality of food very mediocre. Hake, deep fried to a frazzle making it very dry and virtually inedible and a fish cake with no tartare sauce, as printed on the menu. This was not mentioned before the meal arrived. Substitute offered was mint sauce which with fish was not acceptable. Even with the voucher discount, we felt this meal was very poor value for money."

"A very traditional Cafe Rouge. Spacious and very friendly and helpful service. Unfortunately being Mother's Day, they were overrun as the meal went on, delays took place. I could hear lots of complaints from neighbouring tables but the waiter was literally run off his feet. He was suitably apologetic. The french onion soup was a treat but the medium rare steak was definitely over-cooked which was disappointing. Child-friendly a place you can waste a few hours happily I would go again"

"I haven't visited Café Rouge in many years. It was a good restaurant back then, quite a vibrant upbeat place to be. As time passes, most restaurants become tired and the food dull or badly cooked, the staff uninspired to be there and I'm happy to say this wasn't the case for Café Rouge for our visit today. Firstly, the premises were clean and well kept. You couldn't see any dust settled on the bottle display, which is a good sign. We ordered salmon with seasonal greens and Anna potatoes which came with a little pot of hot hollandaise sauce. I must say, this was cooked to perfection. I've eaten at the Dorchester and haven't had a meal which tasted as good as this. Lastly, the waitress we had was outstanding. She coped brilliantly with a huge amount of customers and still managed to come back and ask how our meal was. If someone could run the country as well as the service she gave to customers, we would soon be a great empire again. I didn't catch her name, I think she's Scottish. She's great and the reason we will be going back again. Absolutely fantastic experience, well done all."

"We often go here for lunch when we are in Cardiff, but I don't think it's such good value anymore . The service was good as it should be when it's only got about 10 tables with people on. I didn't want much so had a salmon pate starter and some sweet potato chips,it was very nice husband had Beef with potatoe could of been better with a few vegetables and a tiny slice of apple tart. Both had drinks a lime and soda and small bottle of water. Bill was £44 for what was really only a three course meal ."

"We received a very friendly greeting and the staff kept us informed until we were seated. The menu had a great variety of options and there were plenty of cats around, but not too many to overwhelm our young guest who was nervous at first. There was no smell of cats and they were very entertaining to watch. The restaurant is brightly decorated, with an interesting and unique vibe. I would highly recommend it."

"Generally I love Cafe rouge and we went in to celebrate adopting our children. We had somewhere to go onto and had left an hour and a half for food. The restaurant was really empty but service was so slow that our children did not have time for dessert before we had to leave (this was part of their menu). I oredered the four cheese pancakes. They were obviously pre made and had been microwaved/ baked to within an inch of their lives. They came in a little pot and were both dry and stodgy at the same time. They also came with a tiny tiny salad in a little bowl. No dog cam let ask if we were ok or if our food was ok and overall it was really really disappointing."
"This place is Awful and has not trained the bouncers at the door how to greet the customers because of whom probably they are getting their salaries from.I and my friends visited this place last night , we forgot our ids so we went home and got the Ids and when went inside.While going inside my friend guy friend was carrying a man bag was told that he’s not allowed to get the bag inside when we asked him for a reason for the same he didn’t answer any thing but at the same time I was allowed with my lady bag in there.We offered him if he can check his bag and allow him inside then but he insisted us to go back hide your man bag inside and then you can enter which is so disrespectful and bad.Then we went inside enjoyed our selves so by the end of time we were leaving the same bouncer who let us in started abusing and assaulting us when we said don’t touch he said “I’ll show you what I can do and even touch you”.He pushed me badly and grabbed my friend’s arm and dragged him out of the club.This incident has shocked me from inside out that what kind of Racist and sexist behaviour is this.For the first time in my life I have seen such heartless behaviour inside a club this is not even human.If a women can get a purse that’s allowed and man cannot isn’t this unfair and sexiest ?? We group of people spent almost 300 pounds in this club and this club gave us a very hard time, forget the service they can’t even match the basic standards on even humanitarian grounds or any place if compared.People who wants to have a good quality time “PLEASE AVOID Going to this bar as this is beyond the expectations of insults and sexism and racism you’ll face in your entire life”.I would never visit this place again and never recommend to my friends."
