What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
ROCAILLE offers a stylish ambiance and a remarkable wine selection, with many praising its exquisite pastries and some dishes like boeuf bourguignon. However, some diners note potential issues with food and wine availability, inconsistent quality, and high prices, along with one concerning review about allergy management.
"Had a really delightful evening meal here on Halloween evening. The waitress provided excellent service. She seemed to genuinely care that we were having a good meal experience. We were a table for four. We tried the mixed starter, which was delicious. Everyone was impressed with their main course, and the desserts were equally impressive. A very extensive wine selection. I can definitely recommend the Cremant."
Keith Howell
"The Rocaille definitely has a lot of charm and is a very nice location to spend a long, tasteful Saturday night at. Staff is friendly and attentive but could know a few more things about the menu / wine list. Unfortunately, the food and wine availability is what pulls this place a little bit. It is said to have the largest wine menu but most of the bottles are not available when requested. The food is okay but nothing exceptional and does not fully hold true on the French concept.
All in all, would go again if the instance occurs but wouldn’t actively seek out"
Marlene Kirsmel
"The atmosphere is great & drinking mainly magnum bottles is certainly CO2 conscious. The starter was amazing, as was the Beef Bulgogi my partner had (we saw a Korean cook in the kitchen, maybe that’s why). My curry ended up having mushrooms (maybe because of the Asian cook, they like to add it to all dishes as a bonus without asking) in it that don’t belong in a curry and I have a mushroom allergy. Luckily I noticed it very early. The one spoon I did have was a bit tasteless for a curry (and didn’t have a great night tossing & turning because of the mushrooms - luckily only minor effect with one spoon). Maybe only put curry on the menu if you have an Indian Cook as well… the dessert was not very inspiring or tasty.
A simple apology would have been okay, but for the host to make a serious allergy into the running gag of the rest of the evening was really not called for. It could have turned out much worse for me."
