    A nicely priced by-the-glass menu with a selection of oddities from all over the world, inviting drinkers to explore categories they may have had little exposure to, and enticing wine geeks alike. Read more

    Menu changes every two three weeks. Very inventive French cuisine rooted in the classics. Great food great service. Only gripe is that corkage is limited to 1 bottle and 55 bucks.

    Racines has been on my list for a long time and I finally had the pleasure of eating there. From the wine to the main course, it was exceptional.

    Famous Chef Paul Liebrandt in the kitchen until end of May. Fantastic 5-course menu for $90. Aged-duck with celtuce, carrot purée & dates 👍🏻

    They offer a very good selection of wine and food pairings. The portions are well thought out as well. Try the pineapple dessert.

    Never had French food this good. The scallops were heavenly, the steak delicious, the wine spectacular. Oh and the butter (yes, butter) - it's worth going just for that!

    Veal tartare is fantastic! It's a unique, tasty dish that is very tender. Highly recommend for the adventurous eater.

    Food is fabulous but portions are ridiculously small. Go for the wine and a nosh but expect to drop some $$.

    Unpretentious French-inflected food, great wine selection in an adult space.

    The wagyu was v good, and burgundy selection expansive. Service was a bit spotty though.

    Fluke yes, scallops fine, lamb raw and chewy in the best sense. Service well intentioned but a little slow. 8.0.
