Great food. Awesome staff. Very very friendly patrons. The gumbo is outstanding. And the buttermilk pie with lemon custard is to die for! This place feel like a home away from home. I look forward to my next opportunity to enjoy Roux!
The food and the service are top notch! A must visit restaurant in Lagna Beach.
A must try in Laguna Beach,great sexy atmosphere and food was more than delicious,they nailed it
We have been ordering takeout from this place since the start of the pandemic and have always enjoyed their food. We finally made a trip down to dine in. We were seated at the chef table since we did not have a reservation. We ordered the fried oyster, gumbo, and shrimp étouffée. Enjoyed all three dishes. The pickle really added a dimension with the fried oyster dish. The gumbo had a nutty flavor to it that made it uniquely savory. The shrimp étouffée sauce was very flavorful, and yet, not overly heavy. The place itself has a uniquely New Orlean feel to it. We will definitely be back!
Wow! Excellent spot. The spicy shrimp was, possibly, the best shrimp dish I have ever had. The jambalaya was spicy and spectacular with everything prepared just perfectly. I highly recommend and will be returning again soon.
Phenomenal food, service and atmosphere! Got the pork belly appetizer, Friday special, and gumbo with cornbread. Highly recommend
Very small, intimate and private restaurant with very good service. Due to the size may need a reservation to get in. We got the Shrimp Etouffe, the Catfish and the Peach and Blueberry Pie for dessert. Well presented and rounded dishes, nothing to blow up our minds but pretty good.
The experience was wonderful. The service, ambiance and food were terrific. The cauliflower and fried green tomatoes appetizers were delicious. I had the shrimp and grits as my entree and the corn bread pudding as a side for the table. There wasn't anything on the table that wasn't prepared properly. Everything we had was flavorful and intentional. The cobbler that we had for dessert was good but, in my opinion, not as good as the rest of the meal. The ambiance was charming and the prices were reasonable. The service was impeccable.
sooooo good!! everything was exceptionally delicious and well seasoned down to the t. hard to choose a favorite but loved the catfish, Mac n cheese, the shrimp and the buttermilk pie!!
been a minute since I had a meal this good. definitely coming back 200%. compliments to the chef and owner!
On point restaurant. Everything was delicious. I do not have a lot of experience with creole cuisine but I can say everything was very enjoyable. The place is small, the bar area is very comfortable. Shrimp and grits were super rich in flavor and texture.
This was a taste of NOLA on the west coast. The rue on the Gumbo was spot on dark color. My preference is a little thicker on the rue but still wonderful. I was worried they would not have any Louisiana hot sauce or at least a cayenne hot sauce but glory be they did. Next time in town hitting the jambalaya. Outstanding job you guys.
Roux Creole Rocks. This intimate restaurant is just off the main highway in Laguna Beach. The service was wonderful and friendly, we got seated right away (reservations are a good idea here). We split the Shrimp and Grits appetizer. It is a 10 out of 10. I had the catfish which is one of their specialties, very well done and presented. My spouse had shrimp etouffe. We also were able to have their award winning pie. It was great too. Highly recommend Roux.
Omg this place is amazing. The food was superb rib eye and steak 1855 , fried green 🍅 was deelish. If you love dessert is too die for
First time at Roux Creole and it did not disappoint! Great food and service. Highly recommend the catfish and the shrimp appetizer.
Phenomenal. We ordered half the menu and all the desserts for our party of 5. Every single dish was so flavorful and perfectly spicy. Kelly was our waiter and he was fantastic. We will absolutely be back!
Fabulous! Such a lovely cozy restaurant, wonderfully attentive and friendly server, and absolutely scrumptious food! The shrimp and grits were to die for as well as the catfish. Shrimp was cooked to perfection and the entire dish was bursting with flavor. They do Louisiana proud!
Another amazing Laguna gem! The food is exceptional with a nice cozy setting 👏 Highly recommend it!!
It’s been a while since a restaurant truly impressed me. This was an unusually great experience from start to finish! The best ribeye I’ve ever had. I’ll be dreaming of it for months. I hope to be back soon.
Spectacular cuisine. Seeing the open-kitchen upon entering reassured me that this experience was going to be delicious. The garlic shrimp & cheesy grits shrimp will have me back for more. Lovely service too! Get the buttermilk pie - they’re famous for it!
The shrimp and grits , meatloaf, oysters and cornbread were amazing. The buttermilk pie for desert was fantastic. The wine selection was top notch. And Tracy was the best hostess/server. So sweet and knowledgeable. Highly recommended the place for an amazing homey creole experience!
Simply fabulous place to be! They made me feel like reuniting with long-lost neighborhood friends who had transformed themselves for the better. But yet something very special remained, only to be felt, and to be tasted - not to be pushed into a language.
