Mike Ottavi-Brannon: The French toast is to die for, as is the burger! They need to bring back the "old" French toast with the fruit, not the espresso! Still amazing though! Definitely sit outside if you get the chance
Nadya W: Located in Rittenhouse Square, Rouge has an great atmosphere inside. Their signature Rouge burger is delicious; try with the Truffle & Parmesan Pommes Frites, & end with a mouth-watering Creme Brulee!
Jennifer H: $16 The Rouge burger comes on a challah roll with caramelized onions and gruyere cheese, and comes with a side of parmesan and truffle pommel frites. YUM!
