Yummy Italian food in the heart of Roches old town…read more Was gonna try the daily special but it ran out. Tried the shrimp pasta with pesto and pizza with goat cheese and pork. The pizza was definitely the highlight as it uses local cheese and the pork tasted like Charshu! Credit to the creative combo but the goat cheese was bit too overwhelming and the pork flavor wasn't shown as well. Pasta noodles could be more chewy but i ate it all. Quick service and pay at the counter.

We had lunch here today. A pleasant spot to have lunch outside on this beautiful day. There are…read moreoutside tables on the front and side of the building so we chose the shady side, which soon was the blazing sunny side. They were quick to open the awning for us. Very nice staff and quick service. We shares the chèvre salad and each had a pasta dish - mine was asparagus ravioli and his was spaghetti carbonara. Both dishes were good. We will be back again.

It was a small but inviting place and our group was seated immediately and drink orders taken. My friends were looking over the menu and I had decided on a pizza. I saw what others were eating and they looked very appealing. Another friend ordered what looked like a chicken cutlet with some pasta and a salad. Another friend had the same, as opposed to the salad got french fries. Others ordered pizzas.. It was a nice place, a nice evening, the service was prompt and I would recommend.

Yep led us to this excellent restaurant just off the main square in "old town" place plumereau…read more The food was excellent and it wasn't outrageously expensive. My wife and I had the pasta marinara etcept that the fish, shrimp and calimari (not fried) were served separately from the home made fettucini. While here outside of Tours on a 3 week home exchange, we will definitely go back again.

It looks like a decent restaurant with good decor and service. Overall all the dishes are too salty…read morefor me and most of all both my husband and I got sick after eating dinner here. He had two bites of my fish dish and got a really upset stomach at midnight. I end up having to get up a few times that night and threw up. I also got a fever the next morning and this totally ruined the rest of our trip. Very disappointed.

Restaurant sympa avec des plats simples mais délicieux !…read more I love these kind of mom and pop shops. Nothing fancy - but good food and nice atmosphere. The décore is eclectic to say the least. The staff is fun to talk to and I was even able to purchase a book from their collection. I am one happy camper.

Extrêmement unfriendly. I was in Tours on a research trip today, traveling alone, and was looking…read morefor some dinner. I was walking by Le Trattoria des Halles and checked out their menu. I thought I'd give it a go and went inside to find a restaurant full of empty tables at 8pm. I asked the woman working, in French, if she had a table for one. She looked at me as if my request for a table on a Tuesday night with an empty restaurant both inside and out was the most ridiculous thing she had ever heard. Without hesitation she replied "No, désolé." And then laughed and walked away. I fully understand that French and American restaurant service standards are vastly different from each other, but I've spent considerable time in Paris and have never been treated so poorly. I can't review the food at Le Trattoria des Halles because I wasn't given the opportunity to dine there. The proprietor apparently prefers to be a snob to foreign travelers rather than make money, or even seat one table amid a sea of empty chairs.
