"We took French friends here for dinner and really scored!! Strangely it is only open from 19:00 to 20:30, but it was well worth the planning to arrive on time. The food was excellent, with a varied menu and gererous portions. The wife of our guests had lived all her life with 10 miles yet was unaware of it's existance. From the outside you would have no idea what lies within!"

Had a super meal here last night. Amazing value, and our host was ever so sweet and very welcoming. My French is a little rusty but she spoke slowly for me and was happy to explain anything on the menu we couldn 't work out ourselves. I had the foie gras and pave de boeuf, both excellent with lovely big salad alongside the starter and simple vegetables and fries alongside a fantastic bit of beef in a red wine gravy (local chinon). With cheese and a feuille de fraise for desert. My fiancée had the salmon salad and a fruites de la creme (white fish in a cream sauce) with cheese and the same desert. The whole meal was under 60 euros. The wine is also very good value with a large glass at under 6 euros. I couldn 't believe it. It is a bit like being welcomed into someone 's home and felt really nice and French. This is not a restaurant that panders to the taste of American tourists, a truly French local meal and experience in a rustic and homely setting. There were two other groups in the restaurant when we visited. One appeared to be a large group of local French and the other was a French couple and young son who were visiting and staying in a gites nearby. The atmosphere is quite relaxed here but the service conversely is quite formal. Not 'crumb trays and petit fours ' formal but very traditional which was actually quite helpful with limited French as you knew what to expect. If you are in Tours and fancy a drive out to a new restaurant, or in Monts and can walk to the side where the SuperU is I would highly recommend it. Note: The hours may have changed now from those above (in previous posts) because we found ourselves in Monts on a Monday evening when a all the other restaurants are shut. We phoned at 8.30 and were happily seated by our host at 9.15.
We came on the recommendation of our host and after reading the review here, it was a no brainier. What a great meal. It has a limited menu and you're pretty much choose from a couple of options. We were so happy. We had beef (tender, great flavor and cooked perfectly), fried potatoes (crisp and light), salad, and a dessert (a wonderful cake) all for 21 euro for BOTH of us. The service was excellent we don't speak French and she had little English, but she was very helpful, kind, and patient and with the help of google translate, all went well. Highly recommend.
