We had a disappointing experience at this restaurant in Tours, which, unfortunately, is the worst of our 2.5-week trip through France. Despite being recommended by a local, the meal didn't live up to expectations. The prices were high for the quality, and the food was only average by French standards.

The main ingredients in our dishes—meat and fish—were well cooked, but the rest of the components on the plate seemed like an afterthought: mostly cold, lacking flavor, and not well integrated. The portions were also quite small for the price.

The vegetarian starter was a letdown, with overcooked, cold cauliflower and no crunch. The curry sauce was served cold, which was unusual and should have been mentioned when ordering. The mackerel was cooked well, but the accompaniments tasted pre-cooked, resulting in a dish that lacked freshness and flavor.

We decided to skip dessert as we were ready to leave. When the manager asked for feedback, she didn’t seem receptive to our suggestions and gave the impression that she wasn’t concerned about the poor experience we had.

There are plenty of better dining options in Tours, especially outside the city center. Our advice: save yourself the disappointment and dine elsewhere.

Lunch: The avocado tartare, fish fillet and duck breast are delicious.  Reservations are recommended for lunch.  There may be no seats available at the walk-in.  Located in the old town.

Dinner: Eat here again for the duck breast.  Tonight's duck breast is perfect. It was the most delicious duck breast ever tasted, and the pumpkin puree also went well with it.  Salmon as a starter is okay, but the salmon only has two small slices.  Monkfish as a main course looks great (there are pictures to prove it) but the taste and texture are average.  Pineapple Tart as dessert tastes so good and fresh. The bread that came with the dish was cold and hard, the worst I have ever had in recent times.  I understand that it is difficult for a restaurant to maintain a high level of standard in every dish.  Service has always been professional.

Michelin quality food in a relaxed atmosphere. Dined here with my family.  The service was great despite the restaurant being very full. The food was outstanding, there was not one thing that my entire family did not like.  The tiramisu and ice cream were favorites.  The cored cheese was an interesting novelty that had some very unique flavors.
