Been once with a crowd of 6, going again with a crowd of 8. Both times for Sunday Brunch. It's somewhat expensive and three hours away, but I would go as often as I could afford to. The service is wonderful and the food is awesome. Parking can be an issue but that's OK.

Consistently brilliant in the 18 years I’ve been dining here. Best bartender & wine selection in Durham, and the dishes are consistently brilliant. The style of cooking is classic, and the results are reliably exquisite. Even the tapenade is delicious.

Nice ambiance. Excellent customer service and food was delicious. This was our second time and thankfully the noise. Level was perfect. We enjoyed the experience and will be back.
Dennis
It was fantastic. Everything was exactly as we ordered. My hanger steak was wonderful. My wife had the trout amandine and it was excellent. She's had it before and it didn't disappoint. We eat there about twice a year, as it is a little bit of a distance, but it has always been great.
Gail
Superb food and service, as always. We wished only for less heavy meal offerings on such a hot summer night. A few summer menu offerings, please?
Jamie
Our beet salad, chicken liver pate, shrimp, and hamburger were delicious, as was the chardonnay and beer. The special gnocchi not so much - mushy, salty, not enough veggies.
John
Food was extremely good, and the value was fair for the quality. However, it was hotter inside the restuarant than it was outside. Multiple people were sweating due to this and it just became very uncomfortable. I am sure visiting in the winter or cooler months is much more pleasant. We would totally eat there again because the food and service was amazing.

The food was very good, as usual, but the area we were seated in, near the bar, was uncomfortably noisy (from the bar) & the tables awkwardly close together.

We hadn't been here in a while, because its always booked but were able to get a reservation for an anniversary dinner. The food was outstanding and I highly recommend the Exotic Pavlova dessert. My wife said it was the best dessert she'd ever had and worth the calories. The room was a bit warm but all in all a great experience.
We always enjoy dining at VIN Rouge. Our pleasure was only diminished by very loud voices around us. the whole evening. Also the ac is too high. But all and all we do recommend the experience of Vin Rouge. Who knows, you may go on an evening when people will be more aware of their surroundings.

Anything you order will be excellent. The staff is very knowledgeable about wines and their terroirs. This is a favorite restaurant of friends who live in Durham and I was fortunate enough to eat there twice (I'm not local).

One of our family favorites! Wonderful ambiance, great wine selection, amazing food and friendly service. Many Thanks for an awesome evening!
Ethan
We waited way too long for our food. We have eaten there many times and this is not typical.

We had a special graduation celebration with family on a Friday night. THe service, food and atmosphere were all perfect. Our graduate had what they thought was the best meal of their lives. Mission accomplished!
Fantastic dinner and service.
