L'Indochine Thai restaurant in the center of Tours is a real delight! Far from the omnipresent run of the mill Chinese buffet restaurants in France offering all-you-can-eat meals made from frozen food imported from China, L'Indochine's dishes are FRESH, beautifully presented and delicious. Here you WILL NOT see enormous buffet tables full of trays heaping with unappetizing slop drying up under heat lamps! Instead you WILL SEE nicely presented, healthy, fresh asian dishes tempting you from small crocks and trays presented all around the main room. My party of 3 came for lunch on a Saturday and were immediately impressed with the cleanliness and decor of the downstairs buffet room. Service was...
Returning from a trip to the Alps, we stopped in Tours for an overnight rest. One of our party quickly researched the area and suggested this Asian restaurant.Early as it was, we were welcomed downstairs to the then vastly empty dining area whilst food was gradually being brought out. We were not only impressed by the immense variety [Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese] of dishes offered, but more pertinently the quality of all which we savoured. Fresh flavours and structures abounded bountifully. The surrounding tables were quickly filled.Having initially sought a brief feast away from the Alpine heartiness we'd been indulged with the past week, we found ourselves unable to restrict our pa...
It's a super good all-you-can-eat restaurant. The buffet is really excellent and should suit all kinds of customers because the dishes are really excellent and you can easily see that they are homemade. In addition, the decor, the atmosphere, the location and the noise level are very pleasant. There is also a terrace available for outdoor dining. The servers are particularly friendly. The toilets were clean so no complaints about the hygiene which was remarkable. Finally, there is good value for money (17€ for lunch). I highly recommend it for dinners with family or friends.
Staying in Tours, we were looking for something inexpensive and we came across L'Indochine. It's Asian buffet style but they are always topping up all the food items and there is plenty of choice for everyone. From Vietnamese Soup, Samosas, various Spring Rolls, Duck, Pork, Beef, Chicken, Prawns and even Frog's Legs followed by fruit and Banana Fritters just to name a few, it's definitely worth a visit if you are in Tours. We went on a Monday Evening and it was under 15€ each, really good value.

We really enjoyed eating in this place filled with traditional dishes, each one as good as the next. The service, atmosphere and food were very pleasant. I still emphasize the fact that the student price is expensive, 23.50 for a student is still a significant budget. It is advisable to come at lunchtime with friends to have a good time, and pay significantly less. It’s a very good all-you-can-eat restaurant that I highly recommend!!
From a locals point of view i think there are better asian restaurants in tours. Had to wait quite a while before waiter came to take drink order but staff is very pleasant. Buffet is reasonable price and food is good quality and topped up frequently. Limited choice for dessert. Good value for money but nothing special.
a high quality buffet and human dimension. Many dishes are homemade, it changes the buffets we usually do. well spicy meats. However, a lack of choice at the maki level despite being very good! Nice decoration. I recommend.
Chinese food is generally not too good in France but this is above average. I have been there several times for lunch with friends and we have always enjoyed the food
