Great main course - also for kids and outstanding deserts e.g. rich chocolate cake, great raspberry sorbet and amazing apple tart.

Post veuve cliquot tour, we had a lovely outdoor patio lunch of tagliatelle and a scallop and shrimp salade. Service was prompt, food was well prepared and tasty, weather was perfect. Champagne and chocolate cake added to the perfect experience. A short walk to Waida to get pink biscuits, chocolate and a baguette for the train back to Paris. A lovely day!

After touring the Reims Cathedral, choose Cafe du Palais for an exceptional dining experience. The duck is to die for! Honestly, the appetizers and wine were also delicious. Food in France is impeccable in my opinion. Then again, I select places that are slightly away from the touristy areas.

Our food that we could not eat!!

Wow!! After an amazing tour of Veuve Clicquot we were told to go here for lunch... It was my 50th birthday. I will say that it was a meal I will never forget! Absolutely Horrible!! The salad was drenched in vinegar with old lettuce! My husband had some kind of pasta with Foie Gras that looked like chunks of canned cat food!! The wine by the glass which was a French Bordeaux tasted like it was out of a box...do not eat here!! Y

Salad Fromage
Frank W.

I really enjoyed the Salad Frommage outside right in from of the opera. Lot of fresh cheese! The place was pretty busy and everyone seemed to enjoy their food.

This was my favorite spot in Reims. Service was excellent, waiter was very friendly even though our French was poor. We got the plat de jour and it was life changing. Sitting on the patio with champagne was one of the best memories from Reims.

Le Tablier - Andoullette

Le Tablier

We were staying in Reims for a couple of nights while touring the nearby champagne houses and were…read moresearching for a local but hospitable place to eat dinner, and Le Tablier looked homey and welcoming so we decided to give it a try. This is exactly the kind of brasserie you hope to stumble into in the middle of Reims. It's right on Place Drouet d'Erlon with a big, lively terrace facing the Subé fountain. That means it gives off great people-watching vibes, although in December it was too chilly to dine outside. The atmosphere of the restaurant hits that sweet spot between cozy, rustic, and modern. It feels relaxed but still polished, like a place that knows what it's doing without trying too hard. The tables are packed too closely together, which was a nice change as to the European norm. We were able to enjoy our dinner and conversation without touching elbows with fellow guests. To be fair, we were dining at an "off" time, so it wasn't very busy. Your mileage may vary if you visit during the popular dinner hours. The staff were genuinely welcoming, especially to foreign visitors, which honestly stands out by French standards. English menus were available, service was friendly and easygoing, and nothing felt rushed. We were greeted warmly by the host, who immediately started speaking to us in English (how do they ALWAYS KNOW?!). We still tried to speak some French to him, which he appreciated. I swear attempting to converse in the local language does wonders when you're a tourist in Europe! The cocktail menu is extensive and creative, and we had some excellent cocktails along with a solid house wine (typical in France) that set me back a whopping 5 Euros LOL. My hubby's cocktail was beautifully presented and garnished with dried fruit, and it was nice and strong. Even the bread basket deserves a shout out for the simple, fresh, and very snackable crusty, sliced baguette. Food-wise, everything was quite tasty. My snail-loving hubby said the escargots (9 Euros for a half dozen) were plump, garlicky, and perfectly done. He never, ever passes up the chance to order this dish whenever we are in France, and he really raved about these. I opted for the Salmon Amandine (24 Euros), which was served with a cider and mustard sauce and butter mashed potatoes. My fish was flavorful and well-cooked, and the portion was quite large. My husband went with a steak and potatoes dish, which he said was rich and satisfying. The potatoes were fried in what tasted like duck fat, and everything was well seasoned. Even by American standards, the portions were huge. These are definitely generous brasserie-style plates, so much so that we skipped on dessert (and the selections sounded incredible). For escargots, salmon, beef, a cocktail, glass of wine, bottled water, and all that atmosphere, we paid about €80, which felt like a great deal for the quality and location. It's not cheap, but it's worth it. I would definitely recommend Le Tablier to visitors in the area. It's a great choice for a casual, fun meal with tasty drinks right in the heart of Reims.

Food was decent, I got the salmon and it just felt like it was missing something. Others got the…read morepasta and had very good things to say about it. The downside is that the service was very very slow. It took us 40 minutes to get desserts which seemed annoying as what should've been a quick dinner lasted about 2 hours.

I took the waiter's recommendation for the pouilly fuisse and nibbled on an amuse bouche while perusing thé menu. Perfect - crisp and refreshing. I settled on the fixed price menu and was delighted with my selection. First course was lox with a beet salad. Perfectly cubed beets lightly dressed and nice pieces of salmon. For the main, I had pork with wild rice. The plate was hot and the portion was generous. Delicious. Dessert - a pistachio eclair. Wildly good. Sometimes the pastry can be slightly soggy - this one crackled under the fork. The filling was plentiful and the tartness of the fresh raspberries paired well. A delightful meal.

We made reservations for 7pm and the resto was rather empty. However, soon enough it was filled up…read moreand almost every table was occupied. The resto is " large " in that there is a downstairs and an upstairs seating area. We were seated upstairs. The styling and decor are quite nice and they added to the ambiance. The staff downstairs knew English. The wait staff assigned to our table did not. However, her English was much better than my high school French by leaps and bounds! Needless to say, we were able to order our food. We ordered the 3-course menu, but started with oysters. The oysters were the star of the meal followed by the chicken. I really liked the soup - it tasted like butternut squash but I'm not sure. Enjoy!
