"One Saturday lunch time we were hungry and it was after 13.oo so decided to stop at the next restaurant. We were very fortunate that it was La Tonnelle.

The food was excellent french regional cooking at a very good price prepared by the proprieter. We will definately be back"

A few years ago we ate here regularly, but over recent trips have given it a miss in favour of other establishments (having felt the menu had become a little tame and unvaried). Descended on them again last week for dinner and was instantly given a warm I remember you welcome back always a good way to start the evening! From that positive start things only got better. We discovered a thoroughly refreshed menu, the portions were very generous, food well cooked and beautifully presented on unique La Tonnelle plates. Real care had been put into everything that was served to us, which itself was done with humour and charm by the proprietress. And with the rate of exchange to sterling in our favo...
What a delight we discovered in La Tonnelle! We 've travelled from east to west on this trip and in 2 weeks, this was by far the best dining experience we had! It 's what I consider the real, old France . If you are looking for a Proprietress full of warmth, humour and character to serve you great, traditional, French cuisine every course as delicious as the last simply but elegantly presented, while you enjoy the still Summer evening air on the terrace, then this is the place for you! Price? We had La formule du jour 3 courses, with 2 pichers of wine and coffee. Our daughter had the kids menu. The bill was an astonishing £40! I wish we had discovered the place sooner.
The owner is very direct and at first one thinks a bit rude but no, she is just very familier and forward. She will make you very welcome and nothing is too much. We stopped here by chance with our 3 kids for lunch and was very suprised. The menu is the usual french starters and main courses. The food on the plates were beautfully put together and everything was very fresh. Basic vegetables were well prepared and tasted delicious. The menu is in french but also perfectly translated into english which is rare. I would very much recommend this restaurant as it is difficult to find a good restaurant with good french food as it should taste like.
Visited on a Saturday evening, although the restaurant is in a more rural area outside of Mios it's worth the short drive. The food is well presented and portions are generous. The adults all had the set 3 course menu and every dish was well received, while the children's meals were great value and the kids enjoyed them. The owner/ manager had a great rapport with the group and although she spoke little English was happy to converse with us regardless of our poor French speaking skills. Highly recommended.
