i've only been once, and so far i can say larenaissancedoes a good eclair and a pistachio macaroon!! i am yet to try all the pasties, desserts and the a la carte. so being fair with a rating 3 for now.
the coffee was average. the assortment of macaroons was wide but i'm not too fond of macaroons. (the only place that does decent macaroons is a place on king street, newtown near the new establishment of cafes towards the end of the street. it bests zumbo).
coming back to larenaissanceit's a small shopfront that opens up into a cosy and crowded courtyard area out back. quite french, but not the best place to eat considering service is ok (they struggle given they're always busy), the line up is crazy, and the prices err on the slightly expensive side.
i'll try it again but next time i'm better off getting take away pastries etc to avoid the queue and eat out along sydney harbour - only a few steps away!
