Chez Léonard

A warm and welcoming atmosphere, the Touraine vineyards and local cuisine are written in Chez Léonard's DNA. We promote home-style cooking and wine that everyone can enjoy: wine lovers and foodies all visit our restaurant in Tours for local cuisine and fine wines! 

Stepping into Chez Léonard means going on a journey back in time. Our restaurant in Tours is named after our famous neighbour Leonardo da Vinci, who used to live at the Clos Lucé in Amboise. Paintings, drawings and discreet evocations of the Italian Master adorn the walls of our cosy wine bar. See if you can spot the many nods to the Renaissance genius! After travelling through time, it's time to discover the wine cellar. Our wine list is a mix of hidden treasures from Touraine wineries, carefully selected foreign labels and fine French vintages. Each of our many precious nectars has its own history and terroir, and they are just waiting for you to try them! Our team even shares their expert advice to help you with your choice. Our menu doesn't put on any airs: our chef knows how to have fun with traditional flavours, reinventing and improving on them. Local ingredients blend with international specialities. Our charcuterie and cheese boards are the perfect accompaniment to a match or a concert in the evening. Add a nice glass of wine, and you have the ideal formula to help you relax and feel right at home.
