What an incredible experience IMA is. I was able to sit at the bar and enjoyed dinner service while seeing the plating happening right in front of me. The chef spoke English well so I was able to ask questions and was treated with the utmost respect.
The food was some of the best I have ever had in France. Astonishing attention to detail, original and creative flavors, and plates prettier than a polished pearl made this dinner unforgettable. Authentic Japanese flavors intertwined with the flavors of Brittany were very fun to experience.
Not to mention, the service was near-impeccable. As a bleached-hair 20-year-old dude who spoke little French and ate by himself, my time in France was met with many weird looks and unfriendly experiences; however, the staff at IMA were friendly for every moment I was there. The sommelier was happy to teach me about wine and how it worked with the dishes. The waitresses were so attentive when it came to refilling water, taking finished plates, or sensing that I had a question to ask. They even taught me some French! All the staff would let me pass when walking through the restaurant, which made me feel like royalty and was incredible consistency across the board.
The reviews can only explain so much about what you will experience here. If you are in Rennes and have the time and money, make sure you go here.
