✨ A Memorable Evening with Beautiful Ambiance and Warm Service ✨
We recently celebrated my sister’s wedding reception at this restaurant, and while the food didn’t quite steal the show, the overall experience was still lovely and worth sharing.
Our group of 14 was seated in a private room—intimate and cozy, though not quite as polished as the rest of the beautifully decorated space. It felt like the room was still mid-design, with some unfinished touches, but it did allow for a more personal gathering. That said, you could still hear the buzz from the main dining area, which is pretty standard in a lively spot.
We started with a round of appetizers: charcuterie, toasted baguettes with assorted toppings, and a comforting butternut squash soup. Paired with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic bubbly (the cava was especially delightful), it set a festive tone. The salads were fresh and enjoyable, but the main courses lacked seasoning and didn’t quite hit the mark.
Then came dessert—and redemption! The carrot wedding cake with dried fruits and cream cheese filling was absolutely divine. Truly the highlight of the meal.
What really made the evening special was the staff. Our main server was attentive, kind, and incredibly on top of things, making sure everything ran smoothly. The bathrooms were also clean and thoughtfully designed (a small detail, but one I always appreciate!). And don’t miss the stunning street art mural at the entrance—it’s a great photo op and adds to the charm.
If you’re looking for a spot with great ambiance, friendly service, and a solid drink and dessert game, this is a lovely choice—especially for a celebratory night out or a cozy catch-up over cava and cake.

Overpriced. Terribly slow service 2:45 for a standard dinner with appetizer, entree and dessert. Random 3% “surcharge” for no reason adds insult to injury.
Butternut squash soup was very nice, steak frites entree was fine, chocolate cake was dry.

The food is ok. But the service is eceptional.i order the house burger. Flavor is good it's just the bread overwhelm the experience of eating a burger. I taste more bread than the meat it self. This is not a complain. Every restaurants or chef has their own way of preparing or making their burger.

*Dropped from 3 stars to 2. I had to chase management myself just to get a response. Had I not initiated contact, this review would have been ignored entirely. Reaching out to the reviewer or posting a public reply is the bare minimum—it wasn’t done. That says everything.*
Dinner here was… eventful.
Started with a spider in my water glass. The server swapped the glass, but oddly didn’t replace the bottle it came from. Not exactly what you expect when you’re poured a surprise eight-legged guest.
The menu was decent, but charging $5 for fries with a burger? Really? And bread and butter at a French-inspired place shouldn’t be extra. That’s like charging for forks.
We ordered two drinks and burgers. My friend skipped the fries, I didn’t. The food arrived—but no drinks. We asked, and were told they were “at the bar.” That’s great, but maybe… grab them? I didn’t come here for a live service update.
To top it off, they charged my friend for the fries she didn’t order. When we pointed it out, the server looked at her like she was trying to pull off a heist. Definitely a skeptical vibe and not the warmest response, though I’ll chalk that up to interpretation.
Then came a mysterious “health and wellness surcharge.” No explanation, no mention on the menu. Maybe Evanston’s trying something new, but transparency would help.
On the plus side: food and drinks tasted good. But cocktails arriving after the meal kills the mood. Drinks should kick off the evening, not close it out.
Still undecided about returning. The food had promise, but the service felt like it needed a reset.

First time visit, Came in on a Wed night. Very chill vibe. Busy but not loud. The salmon was very very good. Brussel sprouts very flavorful. And the salad with chicken also tasty. A great meal in Evanston.

Had dinner there last night with 10 friends. After reading the reviews here about the steak being not so good . . .we had the same experience. The ribeye I ordered was fatty and not great. The steak salad my friend ordered medium rare came out well done. We had to send one of the cocktails back. . .the olive oil martini. . .yuck, not a good taste. However, the oysters were good, the lamb meatballs were good and we had a pinot noir that was great. Service was very good.

I reserved a private room for a celebration of life for my sister here. The environment, ambiance, food and service all were wonderful and exceeded my expectations. The event coordinator was very responsive and helpful with all of the planning. I highly recommend this restaurant for any kind of meaningful event. It was just beautiful, and the staff were truly lovely.

Celebrating Bastille Day with Le Tour was great on a very pleasant day dining outside listening to an accordion player gave it the right vibe to celebrate the French holiday. The cava/rose special with oysters was great and shared an order of mussels as well. Wait staff was friendly and attentive. Very nice time!
We had a delightful 75th birthday celebration over Sunday brunch at Le Tour that offers attentive service and an interesting selection of fine food and drink. Highly recommended for the food, ambiance and service.

Nice place in the middle of the town . We didn't got good value to our money , but the drinks were good.

Out group of 6 (including 4 out of town guests who had never been to Le Tour) loved sitting outside on a beautiful night! Since we hadn't specified this beforehand, our hostess went out of her way to find us an open table under a tree away from guests on the covered patio. Despite being "off the beaten path," we had prompt & attentive service throughout the evening. The salmon was sensational, the burgers so yum, and those frites are to die for! Our guests were very impressed. Thanks Le Tour, for making us look like spectacular hosts!

I have been to LeTour and this time it was even better. I love how the dining is divided and more private. Our waitress was fantastic and she got our son out in time for the graduation fireworks. We would highly recommend!

We enjoyed our visit to Le Tour for happy hour. They offer a unique happy hour menu with 1/2 price drinks and wine. Our server Hattie was quite pleasant.
