While waiting for the Ironman registration to open, our group was just walking around town looking for a nice place to eat. We spotted a few restaurants but came across the Rendezvous Restaurant by the clock tower. We saw the menu in the window and was enticed to go inside. (Note: at the time of third review, the menu in the window did not reflect the current prices on the menu inside)
We ordered coffee, fish and chips, burgers, and the cajun chicken salads. Everything came out hot and fresh. I ordered coffee, water, and the cajun chicken salad. The water had a pleasant flavor and came in nice cold water flasks to fill glasses (Note: we had gone to a restaurant the previous day and the water was like licking 100 year old pipes). The coffee cane out hot and had a great taste to it. I'm no coffee connoisseur, so my taste buds may vary from yours.
The cajun chicken salad was incredible. Right groin the start the chicken was hot, the salad with dressing was very balanced, and the kick from the spice only slightly overwhelmed you from the start. I truly enjoyed the salad and highly recommend it.
A few of us wanted to take advantage of the dessert offerings, specifically the Tiramisu. Unfortunately, they were sold out. Upon leaving, I took a few seconds to thank the owner/manager and complimented him on the salad. Service was excellent, food was phenomenal, and the price was still reasonable. Would have loved to have tried the Tiramisu. read more
