Le Madeleine sur Verneuil-Sur-Avre

Unfortunately, we had an off day; the sirloin steak we ordered was very well cooked. For €40 a dish, we expected something else, including a very average side dish and a less than average dessert (pavlova). In short, we were disappointed and will not return. Sorry, but when there's a problem, a small gesture on the bill would have been welcome, which was not the case.

Refined and sophisticated cuisine that beautifully blends flavors and textures, with a touch of originality. Generous portions. Some repetition between the appetizer and main course could be avoided: for example, the ricotta. Attentive service, but the background music was a bit too loud. Drinks were a little pricey. Recommended.

A family birthday lunch. Personally, it was our second visit. We're from the Aude region, and my brother-in-law, who has a house there, invited us for his brother's birthday. Always delicious and beautifully presented! A truly delightful experience... perhaps until next year... or even sooner.

A very warm welcome and a delicious meal. The food was fresh, well-cooked, and beautifully presented. However, there was one small drawback, though it won't affect my rating. I chose the strawberry and chocolate tart for dessert. This dessert was actually a chocolate tart filled with chocolate cream and topped with five or six strawberry halves. I hate chocolate cakes, so I didn't have dessert. Perhaps you could change the name of this dessert on the menu and add a knife and fork to break the rather hard crust (my husband tasted it).

We had already given this restaurant as a five-course gift for a delighted friend's birthday. This Monday at lunchtime, we took our Swiss friend on this culinary journey: from the cocktail and amuse-bouche to the main course and dessert, the welcome and service from Clément, as well as the conversation with Valentin, our passionate chef, were worthy of a Michelin star. The "A'FAIRE" menu, three courses with incredible flavor discoveries, included an amuse-bouche, a halibut and mango tart emulsion with cuttlefish ink, and a pitaya shrimp tartare. The dish featured shredded veal that was both meltingly tender and crispy, served with pea purée, and a chocolate mousse with strawberry and Thai basil syrup. Not forgetting the delicate crystal lace decoration. THANK YOU 🙏 See you soon. STÉPHANIE

We had a wonderful time. We immediately felt at ease. A huge thank you to the chef and the entire team, who perfectly accommodated our train schedule. Despite a full restaurant, our dishes were served with remarkable efficiency, without ever compromising on quality. The service was warm, attentive, and very friendly. As for the food, it was simply delicious: refined and flavorful dishes.

Excellent, delicious!! Everything was perfect! An incredible place for food lovers!

I came in early April 2026, and I can confirm the many positive reviews. It's a pleasant atmosphere, truly delicious, and you can tell that care has gone into it, with good ingredients and beautiful combinations of flavors and textures. The ambiance of a high-end Norman brasserie is definitely there. And what's more, the Rue de la Madeleine is very pretty. One small possible improvement: the service sometimes forgets to bring us the extras.

Discovered by chance, like a hidden gem during a journey. The dishes at La Madeleine restaurant by Cyril Coutin are exquisite: the flavors, textures, and combinations are complex, refined, and perfectly executed. The welcome and service are impeccable, with a menu offering reasonable and accessible prices considering the excellence on offer. The extreme heatwave of the day further enhanced the calm and intimate atmosphere, making for a particularly pleasant experience.

A cozy place with an excellent welcome. We were dazzled by the scenery and delighted our taste buds from beginning to end. The waiter was incredibly attentive.
