Maurice sur Cesson-Sevigne

The restaurant was open continuously this Sunday afternoon, in addition to the meat and gourmet food shop (next to Augustin's, which was also open). First visit. I didn't know about it. Not from the neighborhood. Never had the chance to be in the area. Too discreet? It was the outdoor seating that led us to the place being open. A pleasant surprise to find this butcher open on a Sunday afternoon after a late start Sunday morning and before hitting the road. Burger prices are in line with brasserie fare when I worked two years ago in Bruz-Vert Buisson (so without taking inflation into account), homemade quality, local products, even for the fries ("homemade"). Very friendly welcome. They recommended the two homemade sauces for those with food intolerances to thickeners, emulsifiers, and the like... The decor is both distinctive and understated. Small, chic armchairs, ultra-comfortable and low enough to feel firmly planted on the floor if you're a woman under 5'3". Also practical for children. There were three of us, and we were the only ones in the large dining room. I would have expected more people for this kind of pleasant place on a Sunday (mid-July). We were served in 10 to 13 minutes, the little one first. Everything was piping hot. The little one's portion was as generous as an adult's. He only ate a third of the burger and a few fries (he's three and a half), and gave us the pickles. I didn't have to sacrifice myself to eat an extra half-burger and the rest of the fries (even with a little bit of Oasis Tropical juice spilled at the bottom of the plate). Because they were good fries. I thought of the McDonald's just a stone's throw away. I figured you can only compare apples to apples. There's the "dream" version, endlessly advertised on TV, which you can only really find at a butcher's or made at home. We were there between 2:30 and 3:50 PM. Too early on a Sunday to take advantage of the Sunday evening promotion: free fries with every burger purchased 😲😲😲😲🎉🎉. Two hours later, while writing this review, I still feel like I ate a bit too much (one and a half burgers, one and a half portions of fries; no dessert; a coffee).

The price is really, really expensive, unfortunately! I'll let everyone draw their own conclusions. Here's the menu: burger of the day with a slice of bacon, fries and coleslaw, a red fruit panna cotta, a 50cl bottle of San Pellegrino, and a large espresso. Total: €26.50. Frankly, it's too expensive, even if the meat is decent, but you can find the same thing at the butcher shop. On the other hand, I have to admit the service is excellent. I won't be back. Thank you.

The meat is of very good quality, the grilled chicken is delicious, and the welcome is always very friendly. Thank you very much.
