Le Rendez-vous Bistro & Restaurant FrancaisFood For ThoughtNothing short of amazing. Great ambiance, whether you elect to dine in either the bistro area or the back room. Our dinner there was superb. The house salad was delectable as were the two main courses we ordered, which were fish and chicken. Their desserts are outstanding. Overall my wife and I found the entire experience of dining there to be outstanding and we plan on returning many more times, including their daily happy hour from 5-7 pm in the bistro area.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMI think is one of the bestI think is one of the best if not the best restaurant in Tucson.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMall time favoriteThis is -by far- the best restaurant in Tucson. If you love food and wine and want to "dine" then you must go to Le Rendez-vous. The unique "small plates" allow you to sample things like frog legs and hot salmon salad and the main menu with medalions of veal and duck montmoresy is timeless.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMVery nice...and more!Such a nice place to take someone for a special occasion and the food is to die for!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMGood FoodExcellent food and good menu. Quite and clean and the staff were professional.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMBistro DelightOur party indulged in about 8 of the very affordable "small plates" bistro selections for lunch ($5.50/plate). Fun to get a smorgasbord of seafood and meat tastes--this is enough food for 3 -4 people. The seared salmon and the crab-stuffed shrimp were our favorites. The only thing that was not a knock-out was the pate. Surprisingly, It was bland and served too cold.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMWOW!What a great restaurant, the food and presentation was excellent! Best French cuisine we have had in many years. We will definitely return.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMlow keyed, excellent foodI had the Beef Wellington, it was excellent, so very tender and flavorful. My husband had the Sea Bass, yummy. Very small but comfy.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful Anniversary DinnerWe had not been to Le Rendez-vous for quite a while and we were very pleased to find some old favorites on the menu, as well as many new items. We both enjoyed our meals. Our waiter was well-informed and very friendly, as was the entire staff. I'm sure we will return soon.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat ExperienceWe had a thoroughly enjoyable time at Le Rendez-vous. Service was great and the food excellent. Its a little cramped inside but they make the most of the space they have available to them. A tad on the pricey side but well worth it for an occasional date night or special occasion.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMWe arrived at the reservtionWe arrived at the reservtion time and were instantly seated. Large wine list presented with many by the glass choices and fairly priced. Service was friendly but not overbearing. Food was quite outstanding. Duck pate and escargot as appetizers were well prepared and very tasty. Entres were veal and beef wellington. Portions were generous and decicious.
We shall certainly return. This was our first visit in a few years and were very pleased.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent in Every Way!On this, my first visit to this establishment, I used a Living Social discount, reserved through "Open Table," and, when I walked in, I was greeted by name! A great way to start! The servers were attentive but not obsequious, the food (yummy onion soup, salad, Coq au Vin and crème brulee) and wine portions were generous, the temperature of the wine, salad and hot foods was perfect, and all my requests were met with speed and grace. Other restaurants can learn a thing or two from Le Rendez-vous Bistro. Thanks to all for a great experience. I will return again to try more items on the modest, but interesting, menu.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMfrance in TucsonAs always, the food is excellent and the service is great.

Bistro section was nearly full and would have been a bit noisy for our romantic anniversary tete-a-tete but the dining room was fine.
Thanks to our friends for a great recommendation.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMBest RestaurantWe tried every thing on their small plate menu!

This time we went on a Friday night just before a holiday weekend. It was very crowded and very noisy. I don't think they can do anything to change the noise level. We love the food, the service is always good and we also like the ambiance, on a week night. Skip Friday nights if you want a peaceful meal.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMThis restaurant allows providesThis restaurant allows provides an exceptional experience, with great service, food, and atmosphere.

It was sad, though, to have to be rushed away so soon after a 1:30 pm lunch. Next time, I must plan to arrive earlier. I'm used to dining European style--quite leisurely.
I would like to know when you are having any special event or menu announcement. Merci!3/14/2013 12:00:00 AMTop NotchEverything we had was superb. Best French Onion soup I've ever had. And the Beef Bourguignon was excellent. The serving and presentation were also what made it a special meal for us. I highly recommend Le Rendez-vous.3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a reservation and whenWe had a reservation and when we were seated at our table it was in a very noisy area, due partially to a large group next to us. Our first waiter acknowledged the noise level immediately. We asked if there was another available table and were taken to one, which was much better.
We haven't eaten at this restaurant in a couple of years but our meal that night was as excellent maybe better than we have ever had there. Our lovely waitress was very efficient and helpful, along with a personality that suited her position as waitress. A very good experience.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWe all enjoyed the evening!We all enjoyed the evening! The grouper, the special fish of the day, was quite delicious as was the Cabriila. One in our party had the steak and also said it was quite good. The onion soup was rich and flavorful as is all the food here. It is classic French and it is done well here.
The service is friendly and capable and we found some reasonably priced wines.
Very enjoyable!1/15/2013 12:00:00 AM
