Needed to reserve table a few hours before for party of 5 as very popular. Overall the best dining experience I have had for some time. Well presented, conventional but delicious food, nicely spaced tables and friendly & prompt service. Went with some business contacts from Tours who had not heard of the restaurant but looked amazed at the quality... More

This restaurant in the mediaeval quarter of Tours offers well-cooked, good quality food and reasonably priced wine. The set menu is particularly good value, and the food is beautifully presented - our starters arrived on dishes that had been colourfully decorated with various sauces to resemble something like a Damien Hirst spot painting. There is an excellent cheese board. The... More

Most dishes are just average besides the risotto with scallop and asparagus, while price is reasonable.

This restaurant in the old part of Tours was booked for us , so we did not know what to expect. We arrived early around 7.30 and were very quickly served each course ( especailly for France ) with an excellent 4 course meal with wine and coffee for 118 euro where service was Compris and no tip required. This... More

These people don't care about tourists nor food quality, they just want to earn money. 6 Euro for a very small and tasteless aperitif - one is not not allowed to turn the table by a few degrees - when serving the wine, they spoil part of the wine - the fish was not cooked at all and the chef...

We had diner for 3 persons at La Deuvaliere on our last night at Tours. All our dishes were unique and perfectly cooked. From our table we could see the kitchen, and watch the amazing attention to every detail the chef & cooks made while preparing the dishes. The service was also excellent : the waiter was responsive, and the... More

By chance we happened to stay in Tours over night grabbed the trusty Michelin and double checked Trip Advisor and decided on La Deuvaliere. The best choice of our whole trip the Iberian Pork with noodles was exceptional and my husband raved about his beef. Both dishes were cooked to perfection well presented with well balanced flavours, followed by the... More

An absolute must if you are visiting Tours. I had the pleasure to dine with 2 local people who had heard so much about the restaurant but had never been - we were all extremely impressed with the food.....as I have said in the title MAGNIFIQUE. I visit Tours whenever I am in France and I will definitely be returning... More

Positiond just beside the noisy center, the restaurant has very nice atmosphere - not too loud, not too fancy, yet classy. Loved each dish. refined combinations and balanced tastes. The very nice Israeli Chef adds a slight twist to the traditional french cooking, while still keeping the classic qualities and not "over playing" with it. Highly recommended.

Well, I cannot add anything else. The food is excellent, innovative. The service quite good. And all that for a very reasonable price. If you are around Tour, you must visit this restaurant.
