Only criticism is the knife was not sharpe enough to cut the filet.

Okaaaay guys listen to me: YOU HAVE TO EAT THERE IF YOU COME TO REIMS !!…read more The restaurant itself is super cute, all purple with thick carpet and lovely quotes on the walls. But the best is definitely the food: for €35, you have an appetizer (very delicate), a starter (both the marinated salmon and the foie gras are amazing), a citrus sherbet, a main (the souris d'agneau is huuuuge and super yummy) and a dessert (I highly recommend the dessert assortment, with 5 not-so-little pieces of desserts). Everything is delicately arranged on the very original plates, it was a real pleasure from start to finish ! Only downside: the waitresses are not the best I've ever seen, they never seem to notice when you need some more water...

Really terrific. There was one man cooking and one woman taking all the orders and serving. It looks like they have done this successfully for a long as time as they were like a clockwork dance. No one had to wait long to have their order taken and the food came out far more quickly than I would have expected considering they were busy. I would definitely return.

I have mixed feelings about "Vapeurs et Gourmandises" so let's be practical…read more Pros: kind staff, alert to anyone's needs (when I was there at least!), original and healthy cooking concept for a restaurant (almost everything is steamed from starters to desserts), simple but yet tasty food combinations and very affordable. The last I was there I had the seabream ceviche and it was wonderfully tasty but light in quantity. Cons: I always feel like being in a hospital, the interior looks too cold, too perfect mainly because of the choice of material and colours, the noice level is not so loud but weirdly the acoustic is horrible, it is definitely not cosy enough (my advice: don't bring your date there), steamed food is always soaking in water. It makes everything looks like a soup. To conclude, I recommend with a but. Therefore the 3/5 stars.

Côté Cuisine was on several lists as a good place to eat, and it's location directly across the…read morepark from the train station, made it an easy place to find. The open air garden setting on a very muggy evening, made this our first choice for our first meal. "Le Plaisir Commence Ici" (Pleasure Starts Here) is marked on all the wine glasses at Côté Cuisine in Reims, and it was a marvelous introduction to eating my first meal in Reims. There are several menu options from 32-50 Euros ($36-56 USD), with prices climbing upwards depending on how many drinks you wanted with your meal. I chose the 39 Euro menu of starter, main and one glass of an apéro and one glass of wine. My friend didn't like the set menu options so she ordered a starter and a main à la carte and just one glass of wine for about the same price. If you reserve with The Fork, you can also get a 20% reduction on 2 courses ordered à la carte. Service in the Summer will be very slow with limited (and temporary) waitstaff, so reserve ahead and be patient, especially if you want the garden seats. My friend ordered the rabbit terrine and enjoyed it tremendously. It was obviously freshly made and the flavors were nicely married. The portion is very big, so this would be a great starter to share if you are not very hungry. I love confit gizzard salad and I can only find it in France, so I almost always order it when I see it on the menu, and this version with pomegranate seeds, blueberries, red onions, and radishes tossed in a fruity vinaigrette, was one of the best I've eaten. The portion was so generous that I could have easily eaten just this as my meal! My friend chose one of the specials of the day for her main course, parmentier, a baked meat dish with mashed potatoes on top. She said the meat was a bit dry but the flavor was good. Once again this plate was a large portion, and since this was a hearty dish to eat in the heat and there are no doggie bags in France, make sure you bring your appetite! My friend's parmentier came with a side salad that was quite lovely, but she didn't get around to eating it after her very large portions of starter and main. I ordered the sardines with a spinach soufflé for my main and unfortunately the sauce could not save the overcooked fish, however, the spinach soufflé was lovely, and after my large salad, I was quite content to just eat my vegetables on this plate. My menu came with a dessert, and even though we really didn't have room, we somehow found a place to fit in some summer fruit and sorbet to end the night on a sweet note :)

I will say that everyone else I was with loved their food, so maybe I just didn't make the best entree choice (sea bream). Also, the service was fantastic. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and we were even given a little sample of bourbon cherries on our way out. It was a decent meal and fine experience overall, but not a place I'd be rushing back to.
