| Last reviewed: May 2026 Racines occupies a corner of the Passage des Panoramas, one of Paris's earliest covered shopping arcades, with original tiling, foxed mirrors and a tiny secret dining room upstairs. Sardinian-born chef Simone Tondo earned the room a Michelin star in 2019, his cooking is Italian-rooted with French sourcing: vitello tonnato, ricotta ravioli, polpette al sugo, perfect carbonara. Le Fooding gave it the bistrattoria coinage. Lunch is the value play; dinner gets booked by the Bourse crowd. Walk through the passage afterwards, it stays beautiful at night.
Editor's Tip
Ask for the upstairs room, it's small but the better seat. The wine list rewards letting the room steer.
