Pure white Haussmannian wall panel moldings, gold mirrors, marble bistro tables, herringbone floors, green velvet booths……The sweet perfume of Rosemary, Thyme, Toasted Baguette, Truffles, Boeuf Bourguignon served by an elegant waiter……Melodies from Serge Gainsbourg and Edith Piaf are playing in the back, you love these songs, you try to guess the words……A Champagne bottle suddenly pops. You hear that very typical sound of 1500 years of French history in a bottle.You have landed in Paris. But are there palm trees in Paris? Is it the Seine River? Why do you see a white sandy beach on the horizon? Are we in Paris? Or are we in “Floride”?Come and see for yourself.You are eating at Renaissance tonight!Miam! Bon Appétit.

    I recently heard of the Ocean Club and have been twice. It is a wonderful experience and a step back in time that reminds me of old Florida. We took some friends on our last visit, and they loved it. Excellent food only surpassed by the outstanding service.

    This was my husband's Birthday meal of choice 3 years in a row. He loves the baby-back ribs. I had the scallops and shrimp dish not on menu but I asked the server and she said it still was. It was very good but other times were excellent. Maybe a new chef but still a very nice place to celebrate or just go for a good meal. Thank you for a good time and great service. BTW the pineapple creme brulee was awesome and so pretty served inside a half of a pineapple.
