L'Autre Usine | Restaurant sur Cholet

This restaurant has an original concept: an all-you-can-eat brunch on weekends, but suffers from a serious lack of organization and resources. The price is too high (€25.40) considering the limited selection at the buffet. Many improvements are possible: - Create three separate queues for serving yourself (starters/main courses/desserts) instead of one confusing and very long queue where people try to cut in line to serve themselves further down the line, which is disrespectful. - Reorganize the buffet with clearly defined areas for starters, main courses, and desserts. Currently, the dessert area is a bit of a jumble. - The dishes aren't large enough or plentiful enough for everyone to get enough. Servers have to run around constantly refilling the dishes. Cooling containers (like those used in traditional all-you-can-eat buffets) would be preferable to trays. - The dishes lack proper labeling and descriptions to identify what they are. This would be better to avoid the cook having to repeat the same thing 50 times and to speed up the selection process to prevent a long queue. Despite this, the staff were very helpful and friendly. A good experience worth trying.

The servers were fantastic, the service was superb, and they were all so friendly and welcoming – a rare find these days! And the food was delicious. Thank you!

Quality service! Due to intolerances, we had to adapt a salad and create a new dessert. I would only note a small downside regarding the lack of fruit in the dessert (hence our creation)

Great experience in this restaurant for my mother's birthday on Friday evening. We were welcomed and served by Léa who was remarkably kind and took care to advise us with particular attention. The meal was excellent! Good luck Léa 😊
