Resto Leon sur Prissac

We were looking for a restaurant to try the iconic calf's head from the Foire des Hérolles. We recommend this restaurant located 15 km away (about 20 minutes). The menu was shortened for the occasion (1 starter, 3 main courses to choose from, and 1 dessert). The rave reviews about the food are completely justified. And the prices are reasonable. Unfortunately, the comments already noted about the wait time are also justified (50 minutes before the first course). Luckily, Google reviews were there to warn us, and we arrived with fully charged phones!

Simply good food in a cozy atmosphere and fast, attentive service.

The place is very pleasant, the waitress is kind and attentive. The dishes are truly divine, the quality is exceptional, and the sauces and side dishes are perfectly chosen. And to top it all off, the prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality. However, the wait is incredibly long! Almost an hour for the appetizer, over 30 minutes for the main course, and 20 minutes for dessert. The wait really detracts from the quality of everything else. If you go, be prepared for a particularly good meal, but be prepared to take your time.

There were 10 of us, including 4 children, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The appetizers were a delight (the melon, port, and tarragon sauce appetizer pictured is pictured; the melon and tarragon ice cream is to die for!). The main courses were also homemade, delicious, and generous. The desserts were magnificent, perhaps a little too rich after the appetizer and main course, but those with a sweet tooth will be thrilled!

Good to know: dogs not allowed (and their owners too). We booked early in the morning because the photos looked appetizing, and we hadn't seen anything on the company's Facebook page or TripAdvisor about not allowing dogs. Besides, there's a terrace, where dogs are generally welcome in French restaurants. Since we were traveling with our Bichon Frise, we didn't have the option of leaving him at our accommodation. Note that Google doesn't offer a filter for restaurants that accept or don't accept pets, and the "about" section of the restaurant doesn't mention that they don't allow pets. We were met with a rude awakening upon arriving at "Chez Léon," where we were refused entry and told that "with a pet, the polite thing to do is to ask when making a reservation." Not only are dogs not allowed, but their owners are also treated poorly. A shame.

Excellent welcome and service! Balanced and very good meal, I recommend it.

A restaurant not to be missed, chef-prepared cuisine with top-notch service in a very pleasant setting. The owners are very friendly. Another lunch at Léon's and, as always, a festival of flavors and magnificent presentation!
