Restaurant Le Parc

A truly fabulous anniversary lunch — every detail perfection! 💫🍾 We celebrated our anniversary with lunch at Le Parc inside Les Crayères, and it was absolutely fabulous from start to finish! Exquisite food, impeccable service, beautiful atmosphere — and that stunning setting within the hotel just elevated the whole experience. When we arrived, they first seated us in the lounge area where we started with glasses of champagne. We ordered two glasses of Flora Debout and two of Billecart-Salmon Rosé, both of which were excellent. They served us a lovely selection of hors d’oeuvres to pair with our bubbly while we relaxed and looked over the menu. Once we were ready, they guided us to the dining room — we got the best table by the window, and the room itself was absolutely gorgeous. The four of us chose the Plaisir de Table menu — a five-course tasting — though it turned out to be quite a feast since they include several surprise bites in between courses to keep things interesting. 😊 Our menu included Candied duck foie gras, John Dory filet, glazed Mallard duck breast, Farm Langres cheese, and Grand Cru chocolate from Indonesia. Every dish was flawlessly executed — the flavors balanced beautifully, and the proteins were cooked to perfection. The bread and butter were also outstanding (and for me, that’s crucial — it sets the tone for the whole meal!). Service was attentive and polished throughout. Even though a few staff members seemed newer or in training, everything ran smoothly. Toward the end of lunch, they surprised us with an extra dessert and a candle to celebrate our anniversary — such a thoughtful touch! At one point, the sun was streaming through the window, so I asked if they could lower the shades — and to my amusement, they controlled this mechanized awning outside right from inside the dining room! It was such a cool little detail that made us all smile. 😄 Even the valets were wonderful — warm, friendly, and eager to share a bit of the hotel’s history and their current renovations while fetching our car. All in all, it was an extraordinary dining experience — elegant yet welcoming — and absolutely worthy of its two Michelin stars. Next time I’m in Reims, I’ll definitely be back, and I’d love to stay at Les Crayères as well. With drinks, the total came to around USD $1,200, and honestly, it was worth every penny for such a memorable celebration. ✨🍽️🥂

I came with my family to celebrate a birthday, and we had such a great time. Everything from beginning to end was carried out with such elegance. The food and wine pairing were amazing, and all of the staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive, which really added to this amazing moment. Would definitely recommend, and I’m looking forward to coming back!

A true 5 stars experience!! My husband and I had the most extraordinary dinner here while vacationing in Champagne. We had the Summer menu with wine pairing experience and it was a great discovery. We enjoyed every dish which was decadent with the best ingredients: caviar, sea urchins and lobster were standouts. The wine pairings were all champagne and perfectly completed each dish. I highly recommend the restaurant as it was the most memorable experience we have experienced. The service was also outstanding.

THIS IS A REVIEW OF A VEGAN 5 COURSE SERVICE, AND NOT WHAT IS TYPICALLY SERVED TO THE AVERAGE CUSTOMER, SO PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN READING. VEGETARIAN / VEGAN SERVICE UPON REQUEST DURING RESERVATION I enjoyed the attentive staff and atmosphere. Upon request, there were no weird tensions when asking for a vegan meal. The chef prepared a 5 course option for me. The dessert course was so good and not just a boring fruit salad, and if you know, you know that this is a feat. I do have to say that I feel like maybe the chef wasn't well-versed enough with vegan cuisine to present something totally unique in every dish. I noticed that 2 of the dishes essentially contained the same ingredients but prepared them in a different manner. So, there was no new flavour experience to be had there. However, I am very critical with my food, so perhaps I am just being a little uptight. The effort is so much appreciated, so please know I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to dine here. For the price, I expected absolutely wpuld have liked more of a "wow" reaction for every plate, and I got that for 3 of the 5. I wouldn't come here a second time as a vegan, but I think it was worth the experience. Considering the lack of veg options in the area (vegan specifically), this was quite delightful. The staff was so so so good. Pur glasses were never empty, the champagne was delicious, and bread was always offered in between. Every dish was explained to us. The champagne and wine menu was much too big for me to tackle and ask about which ones were vegan, so if you plan on consuming and the filter process concerns you, definitely know what you'd like ahead of time or call ahead to inquire. My favourite courses were the first and last. NOTE: if you do not consume honey as a vegan, this needs to be mentioned, as one of the desserts presented to me contained this ingredient. In the middle of the service, the chef made their rounds to every table to ensure everything was alright, and that's a nice touch. You can really tell that they love what they do, as well as the staff. Thanks for the lovely evening.

Give them more Michelin stars!! This was by far one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had both in the US and traveling abroad. From the staff to the food and ambiance, it was a 10/10. Thank you to Les Crayeres & Le Parc for making our friend Holly’s bday so special!

An extraordinary dining experience. Staff was welcoming, engaging and extremely knowledgeable. Chef Christophe delivers a culinary experience you will long remember. Paté was sublime, the duck breast cooked to perfection - crispy skin, marvelously moist meat. John Dory was flaky, moist and retained a bit of ocean flavor. Excellent wine pairing recommended by the sommelier. The room is lovely and quite elegant.

We are foreign visitors, and we have dined at many Michelin starred restaurants local and abroad. It wasn’t until we arrived at Reims that we noticed that the chef changed. We made our reservation several months ago in our country, at that time, the chef was still the previous one. ( And it was through google review that we discover the chef has changed.) We consider this as a kind of “fraud”, since no one has ever contacted us about the alter in chef. Our reservation time was 6:30in the afternoon, when we arrived at the restaurant, we were lead to the garden. This is our first time being led to other places before dinging in our experience in Europe. People from the restaurant didn’t told us that we have to finish the whole bottle of champagne before we could get into the restaurant and start our dinner, therefore, it was until 8:40 that we finally get into the restaurant. The snack served when we were waiting were melted and collapsed, we suppose it was due to the high temperature and the long waiting time. The champagne and wine are really good, however, despite the desserts, the other dishes are far from satisfying. The dishes are all salty, and we couldn’t taste layered flavors in the dishes, as other restaurants have. (For example, we can only taste saltiness in the meat, since the meat is salty, and the sauce is also salty. As for the dish made from cheese, we could only taste the flavor of cheese.)

One of the few fine-dining restaurants I recommend. Each dish was well-executed, with complex flavors and textures. We had the 180euro menu with the 120euro wine pairing. The amount of food was just right. Service staff were friendly, and highly knowledgeable somms.

Magical experience and the food was divine. Our favorite course was the second consisting of a chanterelle mushrooms bisque and chicken oysters (sounds better in French) absolutely delish. The wine parings were excellent and the service is what made it magical, perfectly choreographed plate settings. We felt like royalty.

One of us got food poisoning here, and paid quite a bit of money for the privilege. Was it one of the dozens of amuse-bouches? Perhaps the caviar and pea foam? We may never know. Look, we really wanted to like this place. It's a 2-star Michelin restaurant set in a chateau-like environment with more staff than patrons and a very, VERY creative menu. We've been to many other Michelin-starred restaurants before and can honestly say we haven't been anywhere quite like it. Maybe I'm a simple man with simple pleasures, but I'll take a great meal at a brasserie over insufferable formality and weird foams and sauces that give you food poisoning any day, regardless of the price. Cool experience, but not something we'd do again.

Awarded two Michelin stars, the restaurant Le Parc in the resort of Les Crayeres in Reims doesn't have the stiffness and formality of older-style French restaurants. Here you'll find surprisingly personable service and modern techniques used in the cuisine! We came to enjoy their dinner service, and though we were the first to arrive in the dining room, the restaurant filled up by the end of the night, and the creative dishes and impeccable service made for a great experience! Before anything else, we were started at our table with several small bites (amuse bouche) and some bread, and we ordered the five-course tasting menu for the evening. Course number one was a duck foie gras in a consommé made with pink Champagne. We continued with a meaty grilled john dory garnished with thin slices of mushrooms, and then a pigeon foie gras (this was getting to be quite a heavy meal) that was formed into the shape of a pigeon breast. And then came the cheese course--a local cow's milk chaource that had been whipped into a foam and was served with watercress coulis on the bottom. And then came my favorite course by far--a "Costa Rican coffee" dessert, which included a rolled coffee biscuit filled with a light coffee mousse, and served with a light coffee ice cream on the side. It's rare that dessert turns out to be my favorite course, but the flavors weren't too sweet and simply had great coffee flavor! Overall, Le Parc was a great experience, though not that outstanding for a fancy French restaurant, whose prices correspond to the level of service and quality you receive. For me there weren't any "can't miss" dishes or unforgettable bites, but what a place to dine in the Champagne region of France!

The best meal experience of my life (to date)! Happy Birthday to me! I could have done without the Pigeon, but other than that we had such an amazing meal! Staff and service was fabulous!

Service was exceptional and the food was outstanding. I've eaten at a lot of multi-starred restaurants like French Laundry, Quince, Saison, so I do have a few nitpicks. That said, it was a thoroughly enjoyable 3.5 hour lunch in a gorgeous setting, and I have absolutely no regrets recommending it to anyone in the area. (Cost was just under $400 for lunch for two with wine and additional gratuity - their lunch menu is a very affordable option if you want a michelin experience but are trying to keep it a little reasonable.) Everyone speaks English, French (and probably other languages, too.) You start with an aperitif in the lounge overlooking their incredible gardens, which is such a delightful way to begin. They offer 4 champagnes by the glass, all exceptional. And you get little nibbles to go with the drink - some parmesan crisps and then 3 little bites: foie gras, terrine, and something with fish. I did mention ahead of time that I was vegetarian, so its a little disappointing this wasn't noted. Still, my boyfriend loved having seconds of the foie gras which was covered in parmesan foam. As you comfortably sip champagne, they bring you the menus and wine list to peruse. The wine list weights about 10 lbs - its MASSIVE. They brought me the vegetarian menu after I requested it, but unlike the other menus, there were no prices associated with it so I couldn't tell if it was prix fix or a la carte. My boyfriend was having a 3 course menu, and there were 5 things on the vegetarian menu, so I had some difficulty communicating that I wanted the same number of courses as he was having. We did ultimately get that sorted. After you've made your choices, they escort you to an elegant dining room. Service begins with an amuse. Our was an egg and asparagus dish that was light and creamy, accompanied with fresh bread and delicious salted butter. My vegetarian appetizer was lentils prepared in the style of risotto - easily the best lentils I ever had. My boyfriend had an onion soup with a mushroom-dusted egg in the middle and some kind of fish. He ordered wine pairings, and the first glass was meant to last through the amuse and appetizer, but they were kind enough to top up his glass when he was running low. Main courses were also delicious and everything is so beautiful when it arrives at the table. Mine was white asparagus and morels in a cream sauce - easily the best mushrooms I've ever had. His was salmon on top of a bed of asparagus. He loved it, and was happy not to share. The next course was cheese, which we added to his menu as I really wanted it. The trolley was a wonderful selection of local cheeses and it was a generous portion. It was accompanied by some jam made from champagne grapes which was particularly good with one of the cheeses. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly throughout, and they made excellent wine recommendations for me since I didn't want to do a full pairing. However, I my boyfriend only wound up with 2 glasses of wine for a 3 course menu, which I found a bit odd. I suspect things got confused because we added cheese, but he didn't get any wine after the main course. Dessert was phenomenal. The palette cleaner was a small dish of ratafia sorbet with champagne foam and small bits of hazelnuts on top. We could have stopped there - it was incredible. I had the citrus tart while my boyfriend had a plate full of various chocolate bites - mousse, chocolates, biscuits, etc. Both looked like art and were incredible. Then they offered us chocolate bonbons on sticks. And finally, we were offered coffee on the patio accompanied by some final bites of sweets - one of which looked like a cherry but the stem was chocolate and the cherry itself was actually mousse in a candy shell. While the cappuccino looked lovely, it was really not good coffee. (Though honestly, I haven't had a good coffee since we got to France.) All in all, the food was excellent, the service was very, very good and the setting is beautiful. I was surprised that my vegetarian meal was double the price of the lunch that my boyfriend ordered, but I will still look back happily on the time we had there.

This is probably the best restaurant my wife and I have ever eaten at. This is definitely a 5* establishment. The servers are ready to handle any request you may have. Their wine list isn't a list, it's a novel. The food is beyond amazing. We have eaten here three times on two different stays, all three times we have been taken back by how intricate the flavors of each plate have been. Come hungry and let the chef design a menu for your table, there are an average of 5-8 courses depending on your tastes. Our favorite was a pasta that was covered in a parmesan fumé and large white truffle shavings on top. I cannot say enough great things, but don't be surprised when the bill comes and it's around 150€-250€ a person.

...loved this place, one of my top meals from my France visit. I am originally from Reims, so I had to visit some of the local fine dining to commemorate my hometown. Let me tell you, this meal was amazing. Les Crayeres itself is a magical looking place, come early and take pictures if you can! Our reservation was at 8:30PM so we didn't get many but managed to get by in the dark. There were a few menus available that day, from the Chef Tasting to A La Carte. Since we came at the end of winter, the truffle menu was still available - so we just had to do it! 5 courses, and while I did not go with the recommended pairing I asked their sommelier to recommend a few glasses to me to go with my courses. She gladly provided me with great options, and I thoroughly enjoyed the pairings. I will not go over every course (the menu is available in my photos) BUT I will talk about one dish. They call it Tartare of royale scampi with black truffle (Fried and creamy of truffle with walnut water). This description does not do the dish justice. We saw it come out at some other tables and were so puzzled as to what it was. There was a plate with a langoustine tartare. There was langoustine mousse on the plate. Both had truffles and were stunning. But the sidekick...A HUGE friend wonton. Yes, a very fancy, high end langoustine fried wonton with truffle in it. It was so amazing...That dish alone made the night for us. Lest we forget though, dishes that followed included scallops with pasta and local chicken with bio vegetables. Everything was amazing but that opening dish...Too strong a start, I would have been happy having it a second time and coming home. Dessert was cool too, but forcing the truffle in there was a little weird for me. Service was on point as you would expect from a 2-star Michelin, and I cannot recommend this place enough.

We wanted to give our two children, ages 13 and 20, a Michelin stars dining experience during our visit to France. We chose a lunchtime visit at Les Crayeres and ordered from the three course fixed menu-- a kind of entry-level gourmet dining option. The setting for the restaurant is a classically elegant country chateau overlooking lovely grounds. We started with glasses of Laurent Perrier rose (a "tasting sized portion for my 13 year old), which served as a floral and subtly complex start to the meal. The servers spoke French and English, greeted us warmly and made us feel welcomed and at ease. The three amuses bouche were tasty, particularly the parmesan "mousse". For our main courses, the hake--served with an exquisite basil reduction sauce-- and the stuffed poultry with champignons were refined dishes flawlessly and artistically prepared and presented. For desserts, we had a medley of chocolate tastes filling a beautiful plate and an almond strawberry concoction that was simply divine. We did not order wine, but we admired from a distance many of the wines our fellow diners appeared to be thoroughly enjoying. Our family had a delectable afternoon of gourmet dining. The price came in at around 100 euros per person--worth every centime for a unique, memorable and formative experience.

It was an exquisite experience. We simply showed up when we were ready and started Champaign at the bar looking at a gorgeous garden. We did tasting menu with wine paring. (My partner did vegetarian option and I did non-vegetarian.) All courses were delicious, interesting and beautiful. I enjoyed all paring wine too. As one of courses, a cheese cart showed without a question. (No cheese, no French cuisine, I suppose.) Service was absolutely excellent. Watching servers' elegant movements was amusing as watching a great ballet or something. An interesting thing was that as we were going to confirm the time of our reservation, the lady at the hotel said "please show between 7:30 to 9 when it's good for you". 1.5 hours window! This was a nice surprise because back in San Francisco, most of restaurants reserve your table only for 15 mins after the reservation time.

June 5, 2019 experience. This is fine dining at its best. The ambiance was spectacular. A beautiful dining room with a picturesque view of Lea Crayères Hotel gardens. The service was professional and personable. And the attention to detail was duly noted. If one were to leave the table his/her napkin was replaced with a new perfectly folded and placed napkin by the wait staff with tongs. Even the bread was cut with a waiter wearing white gloves! There is a reason this Reataurant has two Michelin starS. Our table of four had the prix fixed dinner which was exceptionally presented and delicious. Of course some at our table would have preferred to have tried the ala carte menu but the all the food was good. The wine pairing was excellent. The bottle of champagne selected was great. Pricy but loved the experience. Afterwards we retired to les Crayères bar which is also deserves its own five star rating.
