Overall experience was superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I made the reservation, I was asked if there was a special occassion. I informed them of our wedding anniversary. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted and wished a happy anniversary. The customer service was excellent from the time that we walked through the door. We were promptly seated and the waiter was ready to assist us. My wife had an apple martini thst she said was the best martini that she has ever had. I sipped on a red Italina wine that went down smoothly. We had the opportunity to have some home-made flavored butter to spread on our bread and home-made biscuits. The presention of our main course was wonderful. Each of our plates was neatly arranged and had sufficient portions. The Rouge Restaurant definately gives you enough food to satisfy you. My wife had the pecan crusted red fish and I had the snapper. We tasted each others fish to see which one tasted better. We could not decide because they were both sooooo delicious. The red fish had a slight advantage due to the pecans. Both were cooked to perfection. We both were impressed with the tenderness of the vegetables. The consistency of our mashed potatoes was outright perfect. The jumbo shrimp was an added bonus. To top off our wonderful meal, we had dessert. Normally, we do not have dessert when we go out for dinner. This night was different because they had several dessert items that we wanted to try. Sorry, but I do not remember the name of the dessert, but it began with a T. It was amazing. I chose it because I have never seen it anywhere else. It was an excellent choice. To sum up, our waiter displayed polite, professional, and consistent service throughout the entire evening. The entire staff maintained this same top notch service. I told my wife that this will be our annual anniversary, but she wants to come at least once a month. We look forward to trying the Sunday brunch. Once again, thank you to the Rouge Restaurant for helping make our Anniversary special.

Excellent food and wine

We went to Rouge this past Saturday night with Vic & Mona for dinner, and had a wonderful time. The service was great and the food & wine was excellent. The steaks are huge!! We then enjoyed the show - which was really fun and entertaining. We will definately be going back.

Thanks for a very nice evening.

Brilliant Choice

by justin0789 at Citysearch

My wife and I moved to Houston a year ago from London and have been searching the City for our favorite place. We found our favorite restaurant last Saturday night. We wandered into Rouge and meet the nicest people. The Food was excellent and the presentation absolutely brilliant. I enjoyed the short ribs which were falling off the bone delicious while my wife had a beautiful sea bass.Our waiter, Alfred did a great job and shared with us his love of the City. The owner Thomas came by and we visited about wine and he told us about his restaurant and gave us a bit of a tour. A brilliant place to go and share an excellent meal with friends and our new Rouge friends they made everyone laugh and feel at home.
