Best Easter, Mother's Day, and Father's Day brunch in Los Angeles! It's a phenomenal organic gourmet menu every day, all day, but these three holidays are phenomenal and you should get your reservations in fast.

I've eaten here many times and I thought it only fair that I should take a moment and write a review. The Renaissance Restaurant, on the property of the Scientology Celebrity Centre on Franklin Ave in Hollywood, is inside a century+ old and fully restored French Chateau. The grounds are perfectly kept and are worth exploring. One can usually enjoy dining outside, although plenty of inside tables overlook the grounds as well. This restaurant is beautifully designed and extremely clean. It has an atmosphere that resonates the time period, yet feels fresh and contemporary. The waiters have always been pleasant and attentive. The food is made fresh so set aside a reasonable amount of time to receive your order once it's placed. This is not a fast-food restaurant. As for the food, I've never been disappointed whether it's Chilean Sea Bass, Salmon and grilled vegetables, Organic Free-Range Chicken, bacon cheese burger, or my son's favorite: Steak Quesadillas and fries. The award-winning French bakery chef will tempt your will-power and fill your eyes with beautiful deserts making it difficult to choose just one. The chocolates, baked goods and pies are arguably the finest you'll find in Hollywood.

Wonderful service and even better food (which is to say something).The grounds are beautiful, so peaceful and well-maintained. The restaurant is breathtaking and the dishes are to die for. Sunday Brunch is one of the best around. Highly recommend.

This is an amazing brunch location. Peaceful and tranquil garden. Artistically decorated interior. All the staff on site are friendly and helpful.As we walked in and looked lost at the parking lot, a garden staff that is working on some plant got down from her ladder guided and walked us into the restaurant.The server Issac and Stephanie were so sweet and helpful, cleaning up table and dishes as we finish. They even set a gift table for us.The brunch is a buffet style brunch. $14 all you can eat. There's a good variety of pancake, deviled egg, salad, beets, meatballs, salmon, fruits and bread and butter. For an additional $4, it's all you can drink juice and iced tea.You can also add mimosa.Service is definitely a 5 stars here.Location is beautiful inside the manor hotel by the Scientology building.

I always wanted to get married in a white 17th century castle surrounded by amazing gardens and fountains....luckily there is one such place in the heart of Hollywood!We rented out the Renaissance Restaurant for 5 hours on a saturday and paid for a brunch type menu per guest. They get 5 stars for their french maitre di, the awesome waiters and the hotel staff.

Had an amazing experience! Was a little confused at first that it was in the Scientology Center but after finding the (complimentary) valet parking and walking past the cafe + lobby, I found myself in a beautifully quaint restaurant with soft music playing in the background. It was on a Thursday night, and besides my friend's birthday party there was only one other group there so not crowded at all. Despite the very lush surroundings, the prices are pretty affordable and the food was DIVINE. I had the fettuccini alfredo with tiger shrimp which was actually a pretty big serving. It was rich, creamy & came with a mound of super soft Parmesan on the side to sprinkle in. I also tried my friend's duck risotto which was the perfect blend of flavor and creaminess and also a very good sized portion. Not to worry if you're hungry before your meal comes out - they bring freshly baked baguette slices to your table with butter balls, olive oil & red vinegar... Yum!To be honest the highlight of the meal for me was our incredibly gracious and attentive waiter, an older man with what I believe is a French accent. He made sure we were well taken care of and even noticed when someone else had overcharged us, which we had missed! I absolutely would go here again. This is a hidden gem of LA that people don't know about... It's tempting to keep it that way so that there are no worries about crowds in the future.

I'm giving this 5 stars based on the previous experience at the restaurant for brunch. I've been there before with a large group for a special occasion. I had the best time and the food was exceptional! I recently made reservations for a small group earlier this week and everything was fine. I just called to change the reservations to add to the group and was told that everyone in our party either need to attend a service first or go in a tour beforehand the meal. It was a surprise to me as this wasn't mentioned when I originally made the reservation. I had to call everyone and get them to agree to the tour beforehand and luckily everyone did. Hoping there are no more surprises... (to be continued)
