Jubilante's is under it's 3rd ownership, I went there once when it was under the 2nd batch of owners and I thought it was OK. i wasn't a big fan of the interiors but it was nonetheless pretty average. it got pretty busy at lunchtime and the crowd's mostly yuppies and people in business suits. I've met the newest owners and they're pretty nice people. I took my mom to Jubilante's for her birthday and we had a great time. I went there on my 20th birthday (2 years ago) and we had the best meal. The food is intercontinental and seasonal so if you liked something in the menu you'll probably won't see it again. Last time i went there I ordered the angelhair pasta with pesto sauce sans chicken and it was amazing. Most restaurants ignore their salads but the Spinach salad (with walnuts, pears, blue cheese, rasp vinaigrette) was absolutely spot on. The profitaroles and the cheesecake were pretty good too. if you're looking for a proper, grown-up restaurant in Renton this is a place you'd wanna check out. I agree with the previous review, the staff is pretty stiff and inattentive but sometimes if the food's great you let things like that pass...
