    Amazing! Gotta try the duck wings. I’ve not had one bad item from their menu and the service from the front door to the bar was impeccable. 10/10 highly recommend. Perfect for a good meal, views, and chill environment.

    Bar La Rue delivers an exceptional dining experience with its beautiful ambiance, perfectly complementing the delicious menu offerings. The escargot, steamed mussels, and steak frites were all executed to perfection, showcasing the kitchen’s expertise. The cocktails are another standout, with the Bonne Vivant stealing the spotlight among the thoughtfully crafted selections. Brandon’s service elevated the evening further, as he was incredibly helpful and attentive, ensuring every need was met seamlessly.
