We had an absolutely incredible experience at Racine for my birthday dinner. The reservations open…read moreup several months in advance and fill up quickly, but if you keep checking the website, there are often cancellations within a week or two of the date. I ended up snagging one of these cancellation for my birthday, which was amazing! Racine does a single seating per evening, with only about 15-20 guests spread around tables at the restaurant. You are seated promptly, given a couple of options for a tasting menu, and offered both a by-the-glass and bottle wine list. Since we were in Reims, the by-the-glass champagne options were interesting and thoughtful, and we went with those rather than doing a wine pairing. The dinner itself is actually a series of individual bites of food, with each of the courses consisting of several different items. It was all absolutely beautifully designed, and the taste was phenomenal. The staff were exceptionally attentive, which is to be expected when there are only a few guests, and Chef Tanaka serves several of the courses himself, which was a nice treat. The ambiance of the restaurant is quite serene. It's a quiet place, it looks over a garden, and the tables are spread far enough apart to give a lot of privacy. It was a very relaxing meal overall. Despite the cost, I would definitely go back to Racine if I visited Reims and could get a reservation.

Sushi is limited on kinds of fish you can get. But it's good enough. They don't have traditional Japanese bowls like Katsusdon. But they have a few Vietnamese style bowls. We had a beef bowl and it was good. The service was quick and good. The only thing they do that bothered every one in group was the workers stood at the entrance to the inside part of the restaurant with frownie faces, or maybe an owner sitting talking to the worker there. Just not very professional. Made us feel uncomfortable a bit. Good luck to the restaurant. They will be super busy in the next month or two.

Worse than terrible service. We sat and waited for at least 30 minutes before we left without being…read moreacknowledged.
