Very beautiful interior and nice atmosphere. Great food. Nice menu for the kids. Service was a bit less friendly than in other Bouillon Restaurants that we visited in the last few days, but still ok.

We had a wonderful time, both in terms of the food and the overall experience. The service was friendly and efficient. The dishes were all delicious, freshly prepared and cooked to perfection. The flavours were perfectly balanced. For those who don't know what a "bouillon" is, it's technically a restaurant that offers a small seasonal menu at reasonable prices, where the cuisine and preparation are truly excellent, without being pretentious. Yesterday, our expectations were exceeded, as the food, setting and service were all above our expectations.

We had dinner with friends on a Sunday evening at Bouillon Racine, and it was a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was lively, the décor stunning and typically Parisian, full of charm and character. The welcome was warm, the service attentive, and the food absolutely delicious, paired with excellent wine. A place I would highly recommend for an authentic and convivial evening in Paris.

American tourist working remotely from Paris - this restaurant is GORGEOUS and reliable with excellent/superior food and great attention to food allergies. The manager who waits on me is wonderful - couldn't ask for better - especially for the Monday-Friday Formula Midi price!

We had the formule midi, which was a great value and very delicious. Everyone enjoyed their mains and desserts (no one chose a starter). We also ordered coffee and wine and this was good quality as well Staff were very kind to us, and were especially sweet to our young daughter, who was anxious about being in a place where she cannot speak the language. This was appreciated as it helped her to enjoy the dining experience more. The dining room was as beautiful as one might expect from the photos and reviews. We will gladly return the next time we are in Paris!

Absolutely wonderful place with extremely delicious food and a gorgeous interior. We had lunch there, and it exceeded our expectations. The food and wine were excellent. The waitress was a little impatient and didn’t speak English, but for me, it felt more like an authentic experience of that famous France people often write about. Definitely recommend!

We love this place. The decor is absolutely stunning, the service is terrific, and the food is delicious. We’ve been multiple times and recommend it to anyone who goes to Paris. We’ve made reservations and we did see some people turned away in a Monday night. Definitely try the floating island dessert.

I had an amazing experience at Bouillon Racine! The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and perfectly cooked. Beyond the cuisine, what really stood out was the service. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, making the whole evening feel special. Out of all the places I’ve tried in Paris so far, this has been the best service in town. A true gem that I can’t wait to return to!
