They use the most fresh, quality ingredients. Everything is cooked to perfection. The staff is very attentive and friendly and willing to answer any questions we may have. Now what I also enjoy is the overall vibe of the place; it captures Humboldt's art style impeccably. Over the years renata's has not changed one bit in quality or in service. If you're in town-- YOU MUST GO!

Their coffee was alright, nothing crazy. Prices were high for the quality. We ordered the burger two nights while in town, and they were completely put together differently the second time and it was not good. Sad since they're so expensive. Also arrived at 9am (when they open) and nobody was there. We waited 10 minutes before leaving and going someplace else which was so unprofessional. The space is cute, small and their baked goods were worth it. They've got the vegetarian market cornered in the area which is nice for them, but they service and quality could be improved.

It was busy, but everything went smoothly and our brunches were perfect. The server gave us a peek at the Eggs Benedict that was being delivered to another table after my wife expressed an interest in that dish; both she and our daughter ordered it after seeing it. My wife requested a vegetarian version, while our daughter had a classic Benedict with thick-sliced ham. I had the Garden Skillet and couldn't have been more pleased. The veggies were perfect (as were the eggs) and the potatoes freshly prepared. Additionally, the family-owned business is friendly and everyone pleasant and polite. We'll be back soon! One last thing: everything, from water and coffee to specialty coffee drink to our meals, was delivered promptly and hot (or cold, as appropriate), despite a couple of large parties present.

The first hiccup, was the restaurant is less than 10 minutes from our place, yet from the time I ordered to the time the food came, it was just under an hour. Plus, it was after lunchtime on a Saturday, which should've meant that the place should have been less busy That's a long wait for a short distance. The food itself was pretty good. My first order was the cod, fritters. The flavor was good. I could definitely taste the cod. What I didn't care for, was the texture. They were pretty gummy. I don't know if that's how they are supposed to be or not, but I was not a fan of the texture. They did come with a red sauce for dipping, but it was a bit too spicy for me. On the other end of the spectrum, however, was the curried goat, which I loved. I called ahead to ask if it was spicy, and they said, not really. And they were right. It wasn't really that spicy. It was a mellow spice that made my forehead sweat just a little bit, but well within what I like for spicy. The flavor itself was fantastic. The goat was bone in, but it was so tender. It was literally falling off the bone. Goat can be gamey, but this wasn't. It had a nice mellow flavor. There was also a gravy, which had a deep, rich flavor, and the rice had a good texture and a nice flavor also. It didn't taste like plain white rice. Overall, even with the delivery cost, the price was very reasonable. I would definitely order from here again, but the next time I would go into the restaurant instead of doing delivery. Also, while I liked the flavor of the cod, fritters, next time I would order something else. Thank you so much for an overall good meal.
