text: What a disaster. Let me first start by saying, our favorite restaurant had been Kai, when MOD was the Exec. Chef. We went several times to Renegade based on our past experience.  Each time, the food was innovative and tasty.\n\nYesterday, we invited two friends to join us for a 7:00 p.m. dinner. We arrived at 6:55 and it was evident that the hostess was a bit frazzled. The bar area seemed full but there were lots of tables in the restaurant area and only two patio tables full.\nAfter waiting about five minutes or more, we were seated. No menus - apologies because they were out of menus. Then the next clue came - the table next to us - got up and left after we had been sitting for about 10 minutes and finally received menus. Two glasses of wine took another 10 minutes. Water came right before that. The wait person said the kitchen was understaffed. Not a good sign.\n\nTwo larger parties had been waiting with children. Their food finally came. Wait staff came to tables with food and then left because they were at the wrong table. Our order went in about 30 minutes after being seated. at 8:15, someone came by after my husband pointed out we had been sitting since 7:00 p.m. He said that they were \"slammed\" and our food would be out in 10 minutes. 8:30 no - food - only two glasses of wine and iced tea (had asked for hot tea) - we left.\n\nFood had been good the previous times, but the disorganization with the wait staff and kitchen isn't a good sign. When we left, there were very few tables full in the bar. The patio had maybe 5 tables full. This is a sorry state for what was a pretty innovative restaurant. We won't likely be back.
