Possibly one of my favorite lunch stops in town. Really comfortable outdoor seating. Inside available too. Had a nice tapas style lunch by sharing a variety of small dishes. Had yucca fries, crab cakes and mini burgers. That was plenty for the two of us but we tend to eat small portions. Sangrias (both red and white) were really good and perfect for this hot day. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend it.

Our experience here was mixed, but overall great. We went to Roux for a private event recently so I'm not certain that our experience is the standard. We arrived, we're greeted and seated by the chef and staff. All the food we tasted was delicious. Crab cakes, seared salmon, veggie paella, fingerling potatoes. Each one was unique and flavorful, however there didn't seem to be a theme. Either we tasted the entire menu, or a special one for our event, but there was a wide variety of textures and flavors. I had no prior knowledge of Roux, but being a New Orleans native, I had minor expectations of French cuisine to grace the table, but we were surprised with bold flavors and dishes outside the anticipated french norm conjured by the name "roux". I have one complaint: the staff were extremely focused on refilling our glasses of wine. Some would consider this a good thing, but for a classy restaurant, my expectations are that staff should see and know the needs of their customers. If I reject an offer for more wine once, twice, three times, it should be more than clear that I'm done...unless I initiate again. We had 2 tables of 10 people - everyone felt distracted by having to deny wine refills. Food was lovely and unique. Wine was exceptional. Staff needs a little more training on picking up on customer queues.

Ordered their chicken dish for takeout and it was really tasty. Went in person for the first time since COVID this weekend. Nice seating spots inside and outside. Service was friendly. We ordered the lamb shank to split, a special, and it was absolutely delicious. Looking forward to our next visit to Roux in Carmel valley.

Nice upscale restaurant. Super attentive staff, chef came out to introduce himself. Ordered various plates to share, everything was good and several great dishes. Highlights were the tuna tartare, deviled eggs, sautéed shrimp, and creme brûlée. Cash or Venmo only.

This has been one of the best meals I have ever had. The atmosphere was also amazing and the owners are lovely.
