La Toq', Restaurant in the old town, Nancy, France
This cozy spot sits on a quiet pedestrian street where soft lights and simple decor create a calm and welcoming setting that invites you to settle in and enjoy a slow meal with friends or loved ones.
The chef has been running this kitchen for nearly three decades, building a reputation through careful attention to traditional French cooking methods and a steady commitment to using quality ingredients that speak for themselves.
Dining here feels like stepping into a local tradition where people take time to savor each course, talk without hurry, and celebrate the pleasure of good food in a relaxed atmosphere that reflects the rhythm of life in Nancy.
The restaurant opens for lunch and dinner from Tuesday through Saturday, with service from noon to half past one and again from half past seven until half past nine, and it's wise to call ahead because tables fill up quickly.
From some tables you can see the towers of the Saint-Epvre basilica rising nearby, creating a quiet harmony between the grandeur of old architecture and the intimate pleasure of a well-prepared meal shared among friends.

The dining scene in Nancy gives a glimpse of French cuisine in all its forms. You’ll find local bistros, restaurants in old houses, and some international spots from Italy, Japan, Thailand, or Lebanon. Some chefs work with Lorraine recipes, others put a fresh twist on French classics with modern techniques, and many create their menus around seasonal ingredients. The tables are spread throughout Nancy’s city center, but also in nearby villages like Lunéville, Richardménil, or Ceintrey. Several restaurants are housed in old buildings, where stone walls and beams sit alongside simple dining rooms. Others focus on modern minimalism. Menus change often with the market’s rhythm, offering fixed-price options to taste the chefs’ work without spending too much.
