"I am very happy with the food I had for the first time at nr. 35 mackenzie walk. it looked very good and tasted even better. I was not too sharp on the sausages in the house breakfast, but everything else was delicious and cooked for perfection. beautiful setting, both inside and outside, but we felt that the staff was a little distracted. maybe a stressful Sunday? service was fast, although the restaurant was quite empty. the prices were a little high £13 for eggs royal in a casual room seemed like much, but we had a nice time anyway. all in all, recommended. go back."

"My wife and I found the food disappointing and it seemed to be overpriced for the quality received. We had been looking for an alternative venue for Sunday lunch but have decided not to include Cafe Rouge in the list of our regular venues. On the other hand, the staff were pleasant and attentive but this did not make up for the standard of food."

"I enjoyed both the breakfast and the birthday lunch that I had recently that I wrote straight to Trip Advisor to recommend Cafe Rouge in Bury St Edmunds. The food was not run of the mill' but was well cooked with imaginative touches and just the right amount. My friend and I chose three different items on the menu and we were both delighted and our waitress was charming and helpful. Your booking system is so easy and I had the opportunity to ask to sit in a side room as I can hear better. When we arrived we were automatically shown to a table where I had asked without any fuss. It was a thoroughly good experience which I shall repeat."

"My review is not for Café Rouge, but for Opentable, who I booked through. When we arrived and said we had a booking for two people, they knew nothing of this booking. Apparently Opentable had not updated the bookings, and according to the member of staff, this often happens. It wasn't busy so we were able to get seated anyway, and the service and food was very good as always. I will not use Opentable to make my bookings again, sorry."

"I made a reservation at this restaurant several months ago for a post-theatre dinner in Tottenham Court Road. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed by the service provided by the staff, who had trouble understanding me when I spoke. I'm not sure if it was due to my soft voice or if they simply didn't care about making their customers feel comfortable. I ordered the surf and turf and requested it to be cooked medium rare. The £44 steak and lobster dish arrived quickly, but the steak was fatty and tough to chew. To make matters worse, the bill came in at a very high amount, even though I had gift vouchers. This experience was definitely not worth the money, and I won't be returning in the future. I was truly disappointed and would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a lobster and steak dinner."

"booked online, had confirmation email, but when we arrived, it was not booked. no probs have a table. I ordered a chicken flour that I would press as a breast, but actually was on the bone - my fault not to check. a piece was in order, the other piece was so hard I couldn't get it out of the bone. I ordered eaton mess for desert that was in the grunde a court of yogurt with pieces of meringue in it. the service was good, the poor food."
"great burger. the pull-rib-croque was good, a bit sweet, covered with cheese, as it should, but in lactose intolerance, so I removed it (painted it off). I should have told them, but I forgot. beautiful decoration both for romantic time or friends I hate to say, but the steak was much too cooked, although ordered medium rare. and quite small n flat as u can see on the picture - looks like a shoe sole. but again hühnerburger astonishingly juicy"

"Cafe Rouge is a classic and welcoming restaurant with plenty of space and friendly service. However, on Mother's Day, it was extremely busy and there were some delays in serving. Despite some complaints from other tables, the waiter worked hard and was apologetic. The French onion soup was delicious, but the medium rare steak was overcooked, which was a letdown. This restaurant is child-friendly and a great place to spend a few hours, despite the mishaps. I would definitely visit again."

"Celebrated my birthday with family, food was nice but expensive for what you got. They had ran out of the wine we wanted, which was a shame as we'd booked for 5pm so it wasn't like it was late at night. Service was ok but we had to ask every time we wanted something, no one came to us to order drinks etc. The bill was £20 overcharged for things we hadn't had. Wouldn't rush back to be honest again which is a shame as the restaurant looks so lovely and we had been really looking forward to it."

"Pleasant staff, tasty food but so slow. Table booked and arrived at 5pm order taken 5.15 with hardly anyone in the restaurant; first course arrived 5.40 and although very tasty the mushroom vol au vent had been microwaved and gone cold with soggy pastry. Main courses, after reminding waiter, arrived at 6.25 with an apology. We were due at theatre at 7pm so no dessert! House wine very pleasant and set menu meal good value."

"The food was delicious, but I felt that the portion size was not enough for the price. I was still hungry after finishing my meal. The staff were friendly, but we felt ignored despite the restaurant not being very busy. We eventually gave up waiting to order dessert and decided to just ask for the bill instead. It was a shame because the restaurant is in a beautiful building and the food was good."

"Asked for Autumn Menu and were given 4 Prosecco. One of us did not like the choice and choose meals from main menu. We were not asked to give back a Prosecco. No one else in the restaurant. Waitress was also chef when we came to dessert. We ordered 1 pint of beer and were brought 2. Sent 1 back. When we tried to use our Tesco Club Card points to pay we were told that they were not valid for the Autumn Menu. We were charged for the extra Prosecco and we were charged for the 2nd pint of beer that had been returned. Lighting inside the restaurant was very poor and it was depressing being the only 4 people in the restaurant when we were celebrating a very special birthday."

"I booked the table on line, but when I showed a member of staff the confirmation from opentable there appeared to be a problem. We were given a table, then another member of staff asked to see the reservation and claimed that they didn't know that they were with opentable for bookings! They said that they wouldn't ask us to leave and they would look into it!! There were a lot of things off the menu and it appeared that there was a problem in the kitchen! This is the second time that they have taken quite a lot off of the menu, better planning and management is required."

"My husband and I visited Café Rouge in London on a cold, wet January day. We had booked a table for lunch using some vouchers and were happy to be greeted warmly and shown to a cozy table. The restaurant was bustling with customers, which was a promising sign. We decided to try the lunchtime specials, starting with a warming bowl of soup for me. For my main course, I savored the delicious moules frites. My husband enjoyed the steak frites and indulged in a scrumptious blackberry and apple crumble with ice cream for dessert. The attentive staff checked on us multiple times to ensure everything was to our liking. We were pleasantly surprised by the affordability of the bill and plan to use our vouchers for our next visit. The ambiance was friendly and inviting, and the food was tasty. We would definitely return to Café Rouge."

"The restaurant was cozy and inviting, with friendly and attentive staff. Despite being two elderly ladies, we were not seated in a neglected corner but instead given a lovely table by the window. The chicken dish we ordered was incredibly tasty, and I look forward to returning to have it again. Overall, our experience was very satisfying."

"This is probably one of the worst restaurant experiences I have had in a long time. First of all when I came in with my reservation I was told by the waiter that they didn't had my reservation since their preferable partner was Bookatable not OpenTable. In the end the sorted out a table for us but we were 6 people and got a table for 4 where we then ourselves could sort out 2 extra chairs at the end. The service was extremely slow and not very friendly and the woman behind the bar really took her time and was acting like she couldn't be asked. We told them from the beginning that we were going to a concert but depsite that we had to chase for the food 3 times. Even worse when we then finally got the food it was cold so have clearly been sitting there a long time without anyone serving it. This was both my first and last time at this restaurant I would rather eat a sandwich from Tesco than going back here."
"A group of 6 of us dine together every Wednesday evening, and we frequently choose Café Rouge in Hitchin as our spot. Given that it was Valentine's night this past Wednesday, we opted for the special menu, which we found to be quite enjoyable. Despite the restaurant being fairly busy, the service was not impacted."

"Very disappointing dinner on our first night in Stratford upon Avon . Staff weren’t very welcoming . Seemed preoccupied with UBER eats rather than guests in the restaurant . Starter took over an hour to arrive and was cold so had to send back . However we were still charged ! Main was mediocre . Chicken tikka starter on no sizzle plate . No hot plate to keep food warm as in usual Indian restaurants. Hot towels at end of meal arrived with a man with a jug of hot water ! Would not recommend ."
