Racine Restaurant London (Knightsbridge)

I had the set lunch. Very good service and food tasted great!
Would love to go back - many times!

My first visit to Racine and I was very impressed - gracious service and excellent food. The liver pate was served with a compote of lentils mixed with mustard and mayo, a great combination. The lamb served with pureed swede was sweet and full of flavour. Very attentive waiter service - we were going to a show and they made sure we left in plenty of time.

A great find. I'd go back again tomorrow for some more authentic French brasserie dining.

Food was great and everything was very fresh.

Outstanding yet unobtrusive service. Every dish cooked to perfection. Faultless.

Had a very lovely evening there. Food absolutely fantastic, service a bit fussy (but better that than unattentive), very reasonably priced... Overall, very good.

What a great evening we had. Lovely food, beautifully cooked.

My dessert came with a large lump of blue plastic in it. No apology and no refund. If you can't find a better place to eat than this in London you really should try harder.

Great restaurant! I recommend the oysters followed by the rabbit with mustard sauce. A real pleasure!

The best service I have experienced in London.

Food disappointing and service unfriendly. A very overrated establishment.

I was very disappointed.

The wild halibut was grey and tasteless, the petits pois were mixed with onions and ham and floating in a grey dishwasher looking liquid and the spinach was a violent green puree with a very slimy and stale taste.

I cannot understand where all these rave reviews come from - I shan't be going back.

Really good, tasty traditional cuisine-using all of the animal in just the right way. The calves' brains with black butter and capers were an epiphany.

Awesome and totally understated.

I loved the whole experience. House wine was perfect. The service is impeccable. Will now be my regular London French restaurant. Paris in London.

Henry Harris's handling of French cooking is faultless, superb food and impeccable service.

Outstanding value for money with the fixed price menus, superb food and perfect service, what more could you want?

Good service in a relaxed but very professional setting and service of dishes which many restaurants try but usually bodge. Not here.

Fantastic, the best French restaurant I have ever been to! Marvellous!

The best house champagne cocktail for under £7 I've had in London. Charming service; great food - I last had the ham and celeriac remoulade, which had just the right amount of mustard kick, without being overpowering; Dover sole; and the ice cream with hot Valrhona sauce. Don't even think of ordering that if you are with someone who expects to "share" puddings - a bizarre idea at the best of times. You will want to eat every drop of the sauce yourself.

My companion, being rather more adventurous than I am had sweetbreads, which he pronounced 'delicious' and then steak tartare, which was apparently so good it kept him quiet for a short time. Remarkable.

I loved this restaurant and I loved the steak tartare. It was the most fabulous restaurant I have ever been to and I'll come again.
