Roux 25

Absolutely phenomenal. Roux 25 in Folsom is a true hidden gem, blending big-city culinary creativity with the warmth of small-town Louisiana. The food is bold, fresh, and unforgettable — every dish feels like a chef’s love letter to the South. Don’t miss the duck fat fries (seriously, life-changing), and if the soft shell crab entrée is on the menu, just say yes — it’s perfectly crisp, flavorful, and elegantly plated. Cocktails are crafted with care, and the service strikes that rare balance of professional and personal. With its rustic-meets-refined atmosphere, Roux 25 is 100% worth the trip — and then some.

A few friends and I went to eat. The food was great the service was ok. All of us finished our waters and were not asked to refill. The cocktails were great. The atmosphere is too loud.

They need to expand to accommodate those who want to go just for the drinks.

There are restaurants you eat at, and then there are restaurants that change you. The Roux 25 in Folsom belongs to the latter category. I don’t say that lightly — this little spot has genuinely touched me and my family in ways I didn’t think a restaurant ever could. From the moment you walk through the door, you feel it — something different in the air. It’s warm, welcoming, and deeply personal. The staff doesn’t just serve food; they serve care, attention, and authenticity. Every plate feels like it was made by someone who genuinely loves what they do. The cocktails? Flawless. Balanced, creative, and crafted with a precision that would make a New Orleans mixologist proud. And the food — my God, the food. It’s Southern comfort elevated to something almost spiritual.

It was a Friday and the sun had settled in the Western sky. My party and I were unsettled, nourishment was needed. When low, there she stood, the Roux, appearing as an oasis amongst the equestrian planes. We ate like kings that night, crepes, steaks, and duck fat fries, it was glorious. We’ve returned often and experienced the same blissful love on each occasion. This Tchefuncte gem is worth your travels. Bear off the beaten interstate to experience life as it was meant to be lived.
