The atmosphere was great, with good music and a lively vibe. Cocktails were well-made and enjoyable. However, the food was very basic and lacked flavor. It felt too simple and didn’t stand out. A nice place for drinks, but not memorable for the food.

Renard is my fiancé and my go-to. The service is always impeccable, the staff are warm and welcoming and the cocktails are always unique and delicious. Make sure you try their fried chicken and fries with truffle aioli, you won’t be disappointed

Nothing that the staff can really do but a few of the women in my group had their drinks spiked. I guess you just have to be super careful.
