Reviews
This is a small town diner - so let's be realistic with the reviews. I brought my dad here to grab dinner and he's been in this areas for 30 years and had never been. We saw they had a great menu and decided to go for it. First, the staff, so attentive and amazing. They were friendly and so kind to my elderly father. They made sure the temperature of the whole restaurant didn't make him uncomfortable and made sure his food was perfect toy the way he liked it. The food was actually decent- dad had the chicken gumbo (which as Southerners didn't see this as gumbo, more of a chicken spicy/hot soup) still tasty, dad finished it. He had a ground steak which was cooked perfectly and covered in gravy. His only feedback was the mushrooms were chewy. I had the fish and chips, great fries, nice fish but the house tartar sauce was the star of the show! Overall- it's totally a great place to grab a meal after a day at the lake or driving through or for a family meal.
I believe in giving credit where credit is due, and Rennee's definitely deserves credit. Since retiring and moving back to Lake County, it's absolutely fabulous to have RENEE'S who deliver quality, delicious, mouth-watering entrees. With a menu that offers an array of different items to accommodate anyones pallet. We haven't been disappointed yet and now bring our friends and family visiting here, which means we're here often. Their daily soup has us dropping in just for a bowl. The patio and intimate back park like seating makes it perfect to bring our furbaby:) The staff are attentive, with positive energy to actually serve you.
Came here last night at closing. It was a couple minutes past 8:00. Having been a regular patron and experienced great service, but the new owner,Danny was extremely kind. Michelle, the waitress told me that she could whip up a salad to go. Totally my bad for rolling in late. Told her that I was starving for a Club sandwich, to which the owner,Danny replied, come on in and sit down and eat. We'll be here for a little longer before leaving. How nice!! I don't know what previous reviews are all about, but leave politics OUT OF IT. If you can't afford the price, go to McDonald's or whatever cheap ass place you prefer. Great service,above average quality food and great staff. You get what you pay for. Just had breakfast this morning. Super good!!
I'm still getting used to restaurant prices since the Bidenflation began a few years back. As long as we have to pay this much, getting good food is important. I can always rely on a meal at Renee's being delicious and filling. Went again Friday and sat outside with 6 of us. Each person said they enjoyed their meal, especially the wonderful all natural milkshakes... Not cheap, but not complaining!
The milk shakes are one of the best in the whole county and the food is really staff is super nice and very fast
