Renard's has a small menu, which means that they have the time and resources to make each dish truly excellent. The goat cheese appetizer was both light and complex in flavor. The lamb entree truly tasted like springtime in the best way, green and fresh but well-grounded by the lamb au jus and fingerling potatoes.
The acoustics in the restaurant were loud for my taste, but not outright unpleasant.

Amazing service and fantastic food. We ordered a beet salad and pizza and both were incredible. The executive chef introduced himself and came to our table to check on us and made us feel welcome. If you’re looking for a great dinner experience, check out Renards

Everyone leaves with a to go box. We left with six because portions were just too big on everything. It was embarrassing for us honestly! Arancini didn’t have enough flavor or enough Nona’s sauce. The food was OK overall, but the experience was confusing. I think one waitress was waiting on all the tables in the restaurant on a Saturday night, which was too much for one person. Not all the tables were full, but because she was managing so much it felt like the service suffered. Can’t believe I’m saying this but they should be reviewing the menu for portion sizes and reducing where it makes sense. It would reduce all the time the wait staff is spending boxing food and increase profits…

Dined in for the third time last night - everything was excellent. Seasonal, fresh, creative, and delicious. The whipped goat cheese and asparagus apps blew us away, but don’t sleep on the pizzas here…best in the area for sure. Just love how they make everything from scratch and clearly care about how they source ingredients. Very skilled chefs in the kitchen. Can’t wait to go back!

Be sure to make reservations to eat at the bar. Prepare to be immersed alongside the culinary masterminds in the bistro. Renard's has the Best French fries 🍟 in the State of Wisconsin, no one can compete with these fries. With stone fired pizzas, fresh ingredients and local cuisine, everything is meticulously prepared at Renard's!

Wow! Wonderful food, great ambience, amazing service and overall A+ dinner I won't soon forget. Great salad to start and the swordfish was out of this world. Phenomenal, very personable and welcoming service from Stefanie. Can't wait to come back again soon!

We were super excited to find such a well reviewed new restaurant in our neighborhood. Our hopes were high, and I am pleased to say were met with flying colors. As two foodie vegetarians, the meat-free items well truly thought out, carefully curated, and in tune with the season. We hope they continue to think about their plant-based customers in future menus. The Mushroom Ravioli and Whipped Ricotta were absolute stand-outs. Service was pleasant and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. We cannot wait to come back! Thank you for livening up the restaurant scene around here :)

Hidden gem! Food and drinks weee outstanding but most importantly impeccable service. Our second time here, and we are so excited to have this fabulous restaurant in Ozaukee County.

We've gone to Renard's about 4 times now and I'd highly recommend it. We like to sit at the counter overlooking the kitchen but the dining room is quite charming also. The food is fantastic! We can see first hand how it is prepared with care and skill. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. I've pictured half of our mushroom pizza with added sausage. Delicious! And the drinks are excellent too. You won't be disappointed!

Fabulous drinks and food! Only suggestion is to recommend or serve bread with dinner service.
What a great restaurant, our first visit. You made my wife’s birthday very special. Many thanks — we’ll be back, often!

Came here later than hoped on a Friday night, but they held our reservations and accommodated our delayed arrival. So glad we didn't cancel! Food was outstanding and service was exceptional. We would go back!

We ordered from their new fall Menu. Had the snapper, the Boulenese, and the squash ravioli. The squash ravioli was light on flavor, but all the entrees were good. Bread pudding and 20 year tawny port for dessert. Very good. Servicer Travis was very attentive and pleasant. After dinner went outside and enjoyed the live music and stayed warm beside the fire pit. We'll be coming back.
