Rouge Bohème Bistro — Restaurant in Mexico City

It's a very lovely bistro on a pedestrian street, do it's nice to sit outside, on their terrace. They have ample space inside and outside. The service was great! The gentleman who took care of us was very attentive and was able to answer all our questions about the menu.

We ordered the Beef Bourguignon but it was very dry and not very hot as was the potatoes that came with it. Had to be a reheat kind of thing as we were the only ones there.
