Every dessert made in-house, every day

Served at every Renzo's across Tampa Bay

The signature

Chajá

$11

A Uruguayan classic from Paysandú, named for the crested screamer bird its airy meringue is said to resemble. We build it the family way — light sponge soaked and layered with dulce de leche, confit peaches and walnuts, wrapped in chantilly and a snow of meringue crumbles. It's the dessert the kitchen is known for, and the one the bakery was built on.

Made in-house daily

The Desserts

The sweet end of the table — everything made in-house, every day.

A tray of Renzo's Argentine sweets — dulce de leche cannoli, coconut-rimmed alfajores and powdered polvorosas
From the bakery case

The cookie table

Behind every dessert is a bakery. Ours has been folding dulce de leche into alfajores, dusting polvorosas in powdered sugar and piping cream into cannoli — the cookie table that shows up at every family gathering. Ask your server what came out of the oven today.

A child at Renzo's

Every dessert at Renzo's is made in-house — the same family recipes, made by hand. They carry the River Plate table our family grew up around: Uruguayan chajá, Argentine alfajores, dulce de leche in everything that will hold it, finished the European way and set down in Tampa Bay.
