Le Rendezvous turns 45!
The multiple award winning family restaurant tucked away in Canberra’s Manuka Court, continues to beat with our changing city, serving up traditional Italian fare with heart – for 45 years strong.
Michael Giugni, part owner has driven Le Rendezvous to dining success over the past 7 years, alongside his wife and business partner. The duo has witnessed major industry awards wins, restaurant renovations and loyal staff growing up, all inside the Le Rendezvous family circle.
“Le Rendezvous is a casual, relaxed family restaurant that prides itself on quality, value for money, a family friendly menu and supportive staff.”
The bustling restaurant, tucked away in Manuka arcade supports a large hospitable team that delight customers daily. During his time at Le Rendezvous, Michael needed to make space for his growing business, with major extensions to the dining room in order to make room for the increasing customer demand.
This man knows quality ingredients, having worked alongside his father at the Fyshwick fresh food markets for several years.
“Stick to quality and value. Thoroughly research your products. Never take short cuts when prepping and always buy the best raw materials.”
He advises those interested in trying to crack the business to, ’be honest and work hard to maintain quality and value.’
The menu is updated biannually and the specials change monthly, with the inclusion of house made pastas and fresh seafood.
The family restaurant has been recognised throughout its 45 years for maintaining quality Italian favourites since opening day in 1964. It continues to dedicate itself to going above and beyond to meet the changing needs of its customers, while straying true to its culinary values and Italian heritage.
“Pizzas are still made exactly the same way.”
The team at Le Rendezvous invite their loyal and new customers to bring the family down and celebrate Le Rendezvous 45 years of success.
