About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
Pure white Haussmannian wall panel moldings, gold mirrors, marble bistro tables, herringbone floors, green velvet booths…

…The sweet perfume of Rosemary, Thyme, Toasted Baguette, Truffles, Boeuf Bourguignon served by an elegant waiter…

…Melodies from Serge Gainsbourg and Edith Piaf are playing in the back, you love these songs, you try to guess the words…

…A Champagne bottle suddenly pops. You hear that very typical sound of 1500 years of French history in a bottle.

You have landed in Paris.

But are there palm trees in Paris?

Is it the Seine River? Why do you see a white sandy beach on the horizon? Are we in Paris? Or are we in “Floride”?

Come and see for yourself.

You are eating at Renaissance tonight!

Miam! Bon Appétit.

    Loved every minute of this dinner from the warm welcome to the authentic menu. The escargot and foi gras were delicious. Our server was attentive and the chef also came to our table to highlight the beautiful cheese selection along with a perfect champagne pairing. Highly recommend and will be back!

    We celebrated our 18 year anniversary and this was the perfect restaurant. Food was amazing and the atmosphere was beautiful. We had a French server which made it special.

    The food is great, the service impeccable and the atmosphere relaxing--everything to like about a restaurant. It is small so a reservation is recommended. Renaissance is a hidden gem.

    If I could leave more than five stars I would. This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! The food was perfect. The service was phenomenal. I’d compare this to Commander’s Palace in New Orleans for their perfect blend of fine dining and a welcoming environment.
