17/07/2026: After a sudden and impressive hailstorm in the middle of July, we went to Léon's for dinner. We chose a set menu, along with a main course from the à la carte menu.
For our starter, the poached eggs in red wine sauce were delicious. The sauce, with its intense wine flavor, was absolutely perfect with the bread, and the egg added even more richness.
The main course from the set menu was Léon's beef bourguignon. Again, a resounding success: meltingly tender and perfectly cooked meat in a rich, deep sauce with a pronounced wine flavor.
In addition to the set menu, we also followed the chef's recommendation and ordered the braised sweetbreads with morels. If you enjoy offal, this is a very delicate dish, where the sweetbreads blend beautifully with the sauce, while the morels add a special touch. Honestly, I did find this dish a bit pricey considering the quantity and quality offered.
To finish, we shared two excellent desserts: a wonderful crème brûlée and a delicious tarte Tatin with vanilla ice cream.
The interior is small but pleasant, with little space between the tables and a calm atmosphere. The restaurant also has a large terrace.
I especially want to emphasize the quality of the service. Due to the hail, the staff had to urgently move the customers seated on the terrace inside, even though our reservation was for a table inside. We waited about ten minutes while they rearranged the dining room, and they apologized repeatedly, even though the situation was completely beyond their control. Despite the obvious stress, they handled everything with great professionalism and care.
The pace of the service was also very good, neither too fast nor too slow.
In conclusion, I particularly recommend this address for its menu, which offers a very nice overview of local gastronomy, with generous and well-prepared dishes, as well as a real sense of hospitality.
