Roux

Excellent! Our first time visiting Roux and I was very impressed. The atmosphere is cozy with art deco architecture and dim lighting. Our table was waiting for us on our arrival and service was great. Craft cocktails and appetizers were fantastic. We had the Whipped ricotta toast and Potted chicken & foie mousse. They were both outstanding. The chicken cutlet and steak frites au poivre were very good. I’m going to make the frenchie cocktail at home because it was awesome. Thank you all for a great evening with our friends. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back!

One of our favorite spots on Park Ave! Really well crafted cocktails and the special’s are always great. Excellent Management and service. David, is an awesome server. I loved the steak, chicken cutlets, the duck, ricotta toast, the salmon, and more! We will continue to take our friends here for brunch and dinner. A WONDERFUL SPOT!

We sat at the bar and had an amazing meal! Started with a rum, pastis almond cocktail that was phenomenal and the special crab on homemade bread which was absolutely delicious - highly recommend. Beet salad, trout and butter bean entree were all exquisite. The vanilla custard w rhubarb - I will be dreaming about for a long time. Best meal in CNY! Fantastic atmosphere, definitely crowded and lively on a weekend.

Great food and atmosphere but I'm leaving this review specifically because Miles the bartender was so kind and accommodating. We came in on my birthday and sat at the bar for dinner. I had a tummy ache (lol) so Miles, without even asking, made me a soda & bitters drink on the house and kept them coming. Within five minutes, I felt good enough to eat my meal. The staff also collectively gave us bread and olives on the house for my birthday. It was a great evening made possible by the kind staff here, especially Miles. We will absolutely be back!

“Simple” food done really well, but not worth putting up with the poor service (curt and neglectful). The onion soup was among the best I’ve tried. The vegetables are treated with respect, lifted up to be the stars instead of being relegated to a side dish.

This is a nice restaurant to come to for date night, fancy dinners, celebrations, etc. We recommend reservations as it is a small restaurant space wise. It was packed when we got there. You have to expect to be seated close to other tables due to the spacing issue. I didn't order absinthe but my friends did and they really liked it. I ordered a Chardonnay and I was very happy with that. For the food, we went with the French onion soup, the Potted Chicken and Foie mousse for the table, the Chicken cutlet, and the Duck confit. The French Onion soup was delicious and a LOT! It was the perfect blend of onion, tart, salt, cheese and the goodness of a good onion soup. The potted chicken and foie mousse was very interesting and the baguette with it was delicious! I didn't end up finishing the chicken cutlet because of how heavy the soup was but I liked what I had - flat, fried and had a delicious remoulade on the side. My brother enjoyed his duck confit but felt it was a little small. He also finished my chicken cutlet. We didn't end up getting dessert but the cheesecake looked interesting. It is a pricey place so I recommend it for special occasions only. There is a parking lot about 2 blocks away. They do not validate parking.

Excellent food, drinks and service. Such has great meal with a fun laidback atmosphere.

A Perfect Anniversary Dinner My wife and I recently celebrated our eighth anniversary at a charming French restaurant, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From start to finish, the evening was a culinary delight. We began with the whipped ricotta on sourdough bread, which they bake in-house. The creamy, perfectly seasoned ricotta paired with the warm, crusty sourdough was an unforgettable start to our meal. This dish is a must-try for anyone dining here—simple yet extraordinary. For the main course, I had the duck, and it was exceptional. The flavors were rich and perfectly balanced, with a tenderness that melted in your mouth. It was clear that great care went into every aspect of its preparation. We ended the meal with a flourless chocolate cake that was nothing short of perfection. Dense yet silky, it was the ideal way to conclude a memorable evening. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the ambiance added to the romantic charm of the evening. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply want to enjoy impeccable French cuisine, I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. We’ll certainly be back!
