Outstanding food for a super reasonable price!! Our group of 8 arrived without a reservation and…read moresat outside for our last night in town for work. The service was excellent as they helped translate their menu for us and explain all the interesting twists on their dishes. We had drinks and 3 courses and paid under 50 euros per person for an excellent meal! I highly recommend the locally caught fish over a cream herb sauce with caviar. It was so tasty. The strawberry dessert with spinach mousse (which intrigued me but was so good with the strawberries) was also incredible. My gin basil smash cocktail was excellent as well. Highly recommend this place and the interior is very attractive. You can make reservations on their website if you'd like. All in all, the the best meal we all had in Tours!

The food is amazing, very creative and delicious. And the staff is very friendly and professional…read more The fusion of flavors is inventive and even daring, yet comfortably within the classic approaches of French cuisine. You won't find the standard menu so many chefs focus on delivering in a precise but predictable way. You will find a menu exactingly executed, beautiful to see, and inventively delicious.

A typical small french restaurant in an old house with 20-25 seats, rustic, quaint. Two waiters…read more Fair prices (three prix fixe options with about 6 choices in each category, plus an a la carte menu). Typical french quisine (great escargot, phenomenal salmon entre). The food was quite good: even the E21 prix fixe meal we both had got us three excellent courses, all with great presentations and all quite tasty. I would rate the food a 5 out of 5. The service was adequate, with just a soupcon of french attitude (we wound up leaving cash on the table because the waiter never came back with our bill, and his explanation of the menu items was surly and not helpful). About that ridiculous French attitude: we arrived at 18:30 to an open door, with 4 restaurant workers sitting outside smoking, and were told they didn't open until 19:00 (a peculiar custom we had already encountered everywhere). We decided to wait since nothing else was open. At 18:50 a group of 20 or so Brit race fans showed up, and th hey were also turned away. Five minutes later we were seated. That group of 20 would have made their night! Yes, I would go back...

If you are planning a trip to the Loire Valley, please add a stop to Saumur and Bistro Les Tontons…read more To speak plainly, it was one of the highlights of our three week holiday. Gérald and Sarah-Jane are excellent proprietors, well versed in the region and just fantastic individuals to spend time with. Their focus on quality, attention to detail and love of living translate through to Bistrot Les Tontons (in the food, service, tours, and events). Romain (head chef) prepared a solid beef tartare with potato au gratin and fresh green salad. Dessert included the best caramel sauce in 30 years of dining experience. Pros + Excellent execution with friendly and helpful staff + Solid wine selection + Caramel sauce during dessert (the best in 30 years of dining) Cons + I have to fly 14 hours to return I cannot wait to return one day. Major additional points to Gérald's suggestion of Fontevraud Abbey after lunch.
