Rendezvous can easily be missed on the street as one walks through Central Square; nestled between a late-night greaser pizza joint and an Irish Pub, I often see passerby stop in surprise as they pass this cozy and intimate eatery (it in fact used to house a Burger King and the space underwent an amazing transformation!). The place is always... More

It seems that my opinion is going to be different than all the others (at least the ones I read)… Rendezvous has really good food and the service is fast, efficient and attending – all this is true (They have agreed to split dishes which I thought to be very nice). Yet I have to say that I think their... More

We take guests with us... More

Everything about Rendezvous is perfect: food, wine, service, ambiance. They even maintain their own rooftop herb and vegetable garden. A bonus: the owner loves photography and has created a great space for showing it; there's always an interesting and top-quality exhibit on the walls. More

This was our first time at the Rendezvous and we were looking forward to a great meal. The menu and wine list were new to us. It seems we did not have the menu in our hands for more than 5 minutes and the waitress was there to take our order. We asked politely to have more time. When dining... More

Sunday eve dinner was excellent at Rendezvous. We had the prix fixe menu (a deal at $38pp) and the first course choices were amazing, especially the warm bitter greens with poached egg --yow. The entrees were more limited but very good too; the French cassoulet is the house dish, rich but delicious. The desserts were a delight. The wine list... More
