I was glad that I finally decided to come to Vin Rogue for dinner. Our server, Jason, was great and provided some great recommendations. We ordered appetizers, entrees and dessert. The escargot and sweetbreads were both full of flavor and were a great start. We then ordered the chicken with tarragon and Dijon willow and the poisson du jour, which was seared scallops Provençal. Both were refreshing and had so much flavor. The chicken was juicy and the scallops were cooked just right, and not tough like some places. Overall this was a very pleasant meal and were were glad to finish it off with some excellent chocolate mousse. I’m already looking forward to my next meal here!

Then we asked for the chicken with raft and salsa Dijon and the poisson du jour, which consisted of scallops to the Provencal. Both were refreshing and had a lot of flavor. The chicken was juicy and the scallops were cooked perfectly, and not hard as in some places. In general, it was a very nice meal and we were happy to finish it with an excellent mousse of chocolate. I'm looking forward to my next meal here!

This place is dreamy and delicious and had excellent steak! (Traducido por Google) ¡Este lugar es soñador y delicioso y tenía un bistec excelente!

This is one of the best restaurants in Durham, and is my favorite restaurant in Durham. I have yet to be disappointed by a menu item, and I’ve almost tried them all. The olive tapenade with bread is a fabulous starter, as is the chicken liver pâté, French onion soup, and mussels (any way you order them). In addition, their raw bar/oyster selection make for the perfect pre-appetizer snack, especially when paired with a cocktail. Don’t expect an extensive cocktail list here, by the way, but their riffs on old time classics pair excellently with their menu, and they have something for everyone. Where they really shine on the drink front is their extensive French wine selection. As for entrées, you can’t go wrong, and I’m frequently torn on my decision when I go. My best advice is if they have a special that sounds appetizing, go for that. Their specials are truly a unique item, as I haven’t seen the same one twice in the 7-8 times I’ve gone this past year. As for ambiance and service, I’ve never been disappointed. The rustic open menu concept along with the hustle and bustle of the staff make the place feel warm, vibrant, and alive. I wholly recommend Vin Rouge, regardless of the occasion. (Traducido por Google) Este es uno de los mejores restaurantes de Durham y es mi restaurante favorito en Durham. Todavía no me decepcionó un elemento del menú, y casi los he probado todos. La tapenade de aceitunas con pan es un entrante fabuloso, al igual que el paté de hígado de pollo, la sopa de cebolla francesa y los mejillones (de cualquier forma que los pida). Además, su selección de ostras/barras crudas es el refrigerio perfecto para antes del aperitivo, especialmente cuando se combina con un cóctel. Por cierto, no esperes una extensa lista de cócteles aquí, pero sus riffs de clásicos de antaño combinan excelentemente con su menú, y tienen algo para todos. Donde realmente brillan en el frente de las bebidas es en su extensa selección de vinos franceses. En cuanto a los platos principales, no te puedes equivocar, y con frecuencia estoy indeciso sobre mi decisión cuando voy. Mi mejor consejo es que si tienen un especial que suene apetitoso, hazlo. Sus especiales son realmente un artículo único, ya que no he visto el mismo dos veces en las 7 u 8 veces que he ido el año pasado. En cuanto al ambiente y el servicio, nunca me ha decepcionado. El concepto rústico de menú abierto junto con el ajetreo y el bullicio del personal hacen que el lugar se sienta cálido, vibrante y vivo. Recomiendo totalmente Vin Rouge, independientemente de la ocasión.

Excellent service and food. We tried the daily special seared scallops which were frankly the best I've had. The escargot were pleasant but I wish they were saltier. Mussels buttery and delicious. Trout Amandine tender and great, hanger steak cooked as specified and was a joy to eat. The pork chop was fairly good. Definitely a great place to go for a semi-splurge meal.

Los caracoles eran agradables, pero desearía que fueran más salados. Mejillones mantecosos y deliciosos. Trucha Amandine tierna y excelente, bistec para perchas cocinado según lo especificado y fue un placer comer. La chuleta de cerdo estaba bastante buena. Definitivamente un gran lugar para una comida semi-derroche.
