    We had an excellent meal here. Both the food and service were really good. Cute restaurant. My only complaint was the restaurant was hot but in their defense it was a 90*+ day. We will definitely go back, just on a cooler day.

    Lovely food and service! Our waiter was very friendly and helpful! We had the French onion soup, the NY strip, and a burger special that was all delicious!! The lemon tart was incredible, and we had profiteroles for dessert as well! It was all wonderful. Highly recommend.

    We love Vin Rouge. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The food is reliably very good. Get the little neck clams and the lemon tart! Aaron is a wonderful server.

    Our theme for this reservation was seersucker suit required and oysters to start and it kept getting better. The 25 year old Armagnac was a first rate finish. Thank you all.

    Love the ambiance and service was top notch. Olive tapenade was delicious as was the mixed green salad. Disappointed in the pork and the steak entrees. While the sauce on the pork was delicious, the pork itself was fairly tasteless. The NY strip steak was not flavorful at all . I ordered the bearnaise sauce to help and it was more like a roux - absolutely tasteless. Next time I will stick with the fish or Moules-frites.

    Brunch waffles were outstanding. The scrambled eggs platter was great too. The birthday wishes for my wife were well received. Vin Rouge always does a great job.

    Our party of 4 had a mediocre meal at what has been an excellent restaurant. Three entrees were overcooked and one of them was cold when it arrived. We were seated at 7:15 and it took until 8:25 to get our main courses. Two of our party did order appetizers and both were very good. Even the cream brûlée and the lemon tart were burned. I suppose all restaurants can have a bad night. I hope this was not the new normal for this one.
