Since 2006, Rue Cler has proudly served the community of downtown Durham. We bring the freshest southeastern ingredients to our diverse clientele, offering simple, classic preparations, in the style of a Parisian neighborhood restaurant. Our dinner menu is updated frequently, with a focus on seasonal, local products. We have an extensive, award-winning wine list, with selections from France and the US, including rare bottles. We gladly accept reservations, so give us a call today!
We are conveniently situated within very easy walking distance of DPAC, Carolina Theatre, and all downtown hotels!
Reservations are strongly recommended, particularly for weekend visits.
We accept general reservations for any scheduled service up to one calendar month in advance. If you would like to reserve on May 14, for example, please call (or click the button above) on April 14 or later. We also have private dining space available for parties of up to 30. If you are interested in this option, please contact Robert Preston, GM.
