"Don't expect a large and spacious restaurant; instead, you'll find a cozy and warmly decorated two-room establishment that's very well furnished. Each room has its own unique character, with different chairs at every table and distinctive silverware on display. The walls are adorned with beautiful French artworks, and the main room features some stunning murals. The food is excellent, and the service is top-notch. There's also a good selection of wines and cocktails. We celebrated our wedding anniversary there, and from the moment we walked in, the staff greeted us with a cheerful "Happy Anniversary!" They even offered to take a picture of us and concluded our meal by gifting us a complimentary dessert. It was a fantastic experience, and we will definitely return. The only reason for the four-star rating was that we noticed some food and drink stains on the walls and a few flies by the window, which could use some attention."

Mr. Saeed, the owner, personally attended to us and was exceptionally gracious. He even sent us home with some bread and treated us like royalty, even though we were dressed casually after a walk in the park. We stumbled upon this place by chance on our way home. The food, atmosphere, and service were all outstanding. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Our first time here. We came with friends who highly recommended Cafe Renaissance. Food lovingly prepared and fresh, excellent wine choice, atmosphere quiet, relaxing. Nice choice of music too. We tried escargot, Caesar salad, pasta with scallops and shrimp, the special: stuffed flounder with crabmeat, basically seafood for our main dishes. Desserts fresh and satisfying. We will absolutely return. We found a little gem in Vienna. Service: Dine in View menu

This gem of a restaurant tucked away in a tiny Vienna strip mall delivers flawlessly Every Single Time. It has long ago achieved (and effortlessly maintained) favorite restaurant status for my wife and me. The menu is excellent, the wine selection is impressive, the service is impeccable, the food is outstanding, and the ambiance is that of a small, boutique restaurant where you can easily carry on a conversation without having to raise your voice to be heard across the table. The owner is there every night, greets every guest personally, and makes his rounds to check up on the tables to ensure everyone 's dining experience meets his expectations for the restaurant There is not a single thin...
