5 Al Rouche Reviews
A great experience all round for the four of us. Two of my friends were vegetarians, and I have a dairy allergy, so we all went for the vegan option, which was delicious, filling, and beautifully presented. Washed down with some very nice white and red Lebanese wines, which I had never tasted before! We didn't have any room left for dessert, but enjoyed some refreshing mint tea, a brandy and a liqueur coffee to round off the meal. I couldn't recommend more highly, and look forward to returning soon. Service was also excellent, being friendly, unobtrusive and very helpful. Great value too!
The food, drink, and service are all fine. The lamb's kidneys, in particular, were wonderful. The setting is basic, but I value cleanliness over poshness. A downside is that people of restricted mobility will find access difficult (impossible for wheelchair users), and the same applies to use of the sanitary facility, which is at the top of a steep flight of stairs. However, such matters are dictated by the existing infrastructure, over which the business may have little or no control.
Delicious and good quality food. Can't fault food and service. Always feel welcome and kids catered for too. We've been coming here for over 15 years and love it.
