Cafe Rouge - Portsmouth

Staff really great and food is absolutely outstanding. The mussels were excellently cooked and the sea bass was beautiful (so good I had two dishes Yes we will be back. Truly recommend this place.

Almost like being on holiday! Great service, lovely food.

We were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff who were incredibly accommodating. They offered a wide selection of refreshments and even provided take-away options when we had too much food. Thank you for making our afternoon tea experience enjoyable!

We never imagined we would be trying something new, but this place had a wonderful atmosphere and felt very cozy. The dining service was excellent, and we would definitely come back, even though it's nearly 59 miles from where we live.

A few minutes later, our mains arrived. My fiancée ordered her steak cooked well-done, but some parts were actually medium-rare. She paired it with fried sweet potatoes, which were perfectly crispy and not greasy at all. I opted for the beef bourguignon, and it was delicious! The beef was so tender it melted in my mouth, and the vegetables were cooked just right. When it came time to pay, I had to remind the staff about the gourmet offer, as the bill they presented didn’t reflect the discount we were supposed to receive. However, given how busy the restaurant was, I understood the oversight. Regarding the 2-for-1 starter deal, we were charged for both starters, which was a bit disappointing. On a positive note, the restroom was clean, which is always a plus!
