La Maison des Halles sur Tours

This is how you imagine a French restaurant. Call it Bistro or Brasserie, who cares. Simply a very successful combination of a beautiful, traditional restaurant, a nice menu, good daily suggestions and reasonable prices. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable, although they do fly around the place in a very whirlwind manner. Fast service is fine, but a little less ADHD is welcome. Otherwise a wonderful thing.

A superb restaurant, quality of welcome, service and especially cuisine. Really recommended, we had a great time. Here are some photos to give a little glimpse of your plates. Everyone go for it!!!!!!!

Notice to lovers of good meat: you absolutely must stop here. The Maison des Halles offers a menu that will make your mouth water. The setting is very cozy but not intimate because there are a lot of people and therefore a lot of noise. However, the service is very good and warm. The meat is excellent: as soon as you get home, you're hit by the smell of braised meat and it's a treat. The desserts are just sublime...and their wine list will make you lose your mind. A very nice address that I recommend!

Excellent and warm welcome. The dishes were excellent and the staff gave good advice. We highly recommend and will come back when we visit Tours.

You must come here if you visit Tours!☺️ The quality of the food is incredible, excellent atmosphere. The staff is very kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend it.

Still as exceptional: unmissable in Tours

Very good typical French food, a bit gourmet. Welcoming staff. Reservation recommended. The only flaw is that the outdoor tables are next to a road with a passage.

We came here for dinner on our visit to Tours. Firstly, the staff were very friendly and accommodating to our young baby. I speak a little French, but the waitress was very patient with me. Of the starters, you have to try the egg, asparagus and focaccia, it was just beautiful!!! The salmon tartar was ok, but nothing amazing. The coriander seeds and fennel overpower the salmon, which lacked a bit of flavour. For the main course we both had the Octopus, which was just fantastic! I would definitely recommend this, and it was the highlight of the dinner. The octopus was very cooked well. For desert my wife got the chocolate ball (Pétanque), which was very light and hit the spot! Not too heavy, just perfect. I got the lemon curd desert, but I have to say the chef was trying too hard with this. There was far too much going on. There was a cream, then a lemon curd, more cream, a meringue on top, with white chocolate, a sorbet and meringue pieces. It’s just too much, and way too sweet. I would suggest not trying to have too many elements, and simplifying it, because the lemon curd was delicious I have knocked a star off because the salmon was a bit bland and the lemon desert was too sweet for my liking. But overall this was a nice restaurant and a tasty meal

Excellent repas faisant honneur à la cuisine française. Il y a une très belle carte avec des produits de qualité et des plats recherchés. Nous avons pu les apprécier accompagnés de bons vins conseillés par le sommelier, nous y reviendrons!
