    Other than the noise level, it's great. Try it if you've never been there.

    Tuesday night specials of all-you-can-eat mussels and half-price French Sauvignon Blanc were outstanding, as was the Grand Pere salad. Service was excellent: attentive but not intrusive. Eat here!

    Rendezvous is a wonderful gem in Haw Creek. The food is excellent and the staff keeps service seamless even with packed! We four were their last night for a friend’s birthday and it was just the best. I recommend this restaurant highly.
