    The restaurant is located in older, remodeled home, conviently located at Ft Lowell and Alverton near the sw corner. More than sufficient parking. Nicely spaced tables in two rooms. The service has always been excellent and the food is well prepared and not over portioned. It is expensive but well worth it. We have been there twice in the past 3 months with friends and relatives - they all love the food and service also. Treat yourself and make a reservation at least once a year.

    Le Rendez-vouse continues to be one of our favorites for celebrating. Food is outstanding. Service was perfect, someone was always around. The main dining room is quiet even when it's full.

    An adorable cozy French place that impressed with its attention to detail; great service and well plated food! Will be back again for sure. The benches in the Bistro section could use a little more cushion support, but everything else was wonderful.

    Wonderful French food. Their small plate menu allows you to try different things. The French Onion soup was delicious, as well as, the soup du jour which was a duck lentil soup. We had the mussels and the brie from the small plate menu and both were wonderful. We had the Scottish Salmon as the entree and it was cooked perfectly. The service was excellent.

    Food is outstanding, wait staff is the most professional in Tucson. Cocktails are excellent. I think the service was just a little fast but that may be because we had an early reservation. I would recommend this dining experience without reservation…well done!

    I've lived in Tucson for over two decades and haven't dined at Le Rendez-vous. I've heard the food is great, but the price was high. My partner wanted to dine in here for a birthday dinner. It brought back memories of France, seated in the tented area. The service was excellent. We enjoyed the beef Wellington and the steak and frites. The cocktails were good as well. If you want that feeling of France, this is the place to go, but be prepared to pay for the experience. However, for the birthday celebration, we did get a free creme brulee with a candle!

    Excellent food with excellent service. We order several small plates and appetizers, teh roasted duck and the crème brûlée and fruit tart. The roasted duck with cherry sauce was perfectly done. The coquilles St. Jacque was perfection. Always, the salads and pate were wonderful. My guest commented that the crust on the crème brûlée was the best she ever had.

    Our dining experience at Le Rendezvous-vous was excellent. Prior to Covid, for many years, this was a favorite spot where we went to for “special” meals and recommended to friends and visitors in town. The service was impeccable and the main man (owner?) was always on top of things. After Covid the food was very good.. but not great, so we hadn’t dined there for a while. We are glad we decided to try it again, as this last dining experience was exemplary.

    If I needed to go on a diet I would eat here regularly. My $40.00 Coquilles St Jacques was comprised of three diver scallops, a half-dollar sized portion of potatoes Anna and some sauteed vegetables. All exquisitely prepared. A perfect serving for a child's plate.

    This is a great restaurant. It is not easy to find a notable French restaurant in the U. S. anymore. Everything here was perfect. We loved both the pear and beet salads. My wife's duck with a cherry sauce was cooked to perfection. My scallops were excellent. The grand Marnier souffle was very special in that the vanilla sauce was of the consistency of a vanilla whipped cream that complemented the perfect the grand Marnier flavor of the desert. Our server, Gina was just lovely and very attentive. This helped made our dinner experience there terrific.

    We come here once a year and it never disappoints. Small, but excellent, wine selection and menu. Everything is cooked to perfection and the proportions will not leave you wanting for more. With a little room remaining we are able to share a dessert at the end. From the escargot as an appetizer to the Grand Marnier soufflé to finish off the meal, you will be wowed. It’s our favorite restaurant in a Tucson. The staff is terrific, kind, and professional. Dining here is truly an experience.
