Restaurant - Brasserie Milord — Restaurant in Angers

Hello viewers,

It’s day 1 evening here. After a long walk, I was browsing my google map and trying to find the local brewery or its call “Brasserie” here.

From the google photos, it looks really good with all the elements I enjoy - French foods, alcohol, desserts and proper tables, now nightmare started.

I purposely going at 7:00PM to avoid the dinner rush hours as the night is long here. I wait in line and cannot get any waiters for seating until i started to talk to one of them. I guess the hint is that you need to speak up to waiter that you need a seat or the waiter does not mind some stranger standing in front of entrance there.

After sitting down, I cannot find any local “brasserie” selection, so I guess it’s just a restaurant with many alcohol selection. After a long wait for sitting I decide to go for a steak and seafood dishes, I see waiters are running in and out like a busy bee, smile, water, serving, repeating. I guess getting water and ordering foods cannot happen at the same time in here. After ordering with waiter, he is like a gentleman well mannered and speak proper English. I resume my conversation with family members. The foods takes around 1 hours and 10 minutes to served, I could not help but asking waiter if my foods are coming as I see 3 other tables are coming after me already getting their foods. I also ask waiter “if this is normal for food to come this late?” It might sounds sarcastic, but I am really curious because rumor has it that Michelin stars restaurant takes 5 to 6 hours to complete the courses and I never been to one. My heart was beating like a teenager as I could embarrass myself when I can’t wait for a good foods to served.

Now, the foods. the food is well presented. Fruit de mer de jour is contained in Cast iron pot, and char medium cook steak with slice potato. After a long wait, I am sure that I am hungry enough to enjoy the foods and what could go wrong with steak and basic seafood? You are basically eating Whole Foods. They are absolutely over salted, and I can’t find any skilled cooking with the dish I order. They are very much like home cooking.

In conclusion, I guess if you are visiting in city of Anger, and enjoy Michelin restaurant waiting time, but not the price. this is a place to sit down and have a chat with friends and families.

A post notes - later I realized, the waiter forgot to put my order into the system for me to have a Michelin waiting time experience. I saw another waiter bring out the exactly 2 dishes that I order and cannot find home for it. Busy bee are too busy. ...

As an American group of 8, the ambiance is very welcoming and most of us are French speaking although I Believe the menu is also translated into Englsih.

The first and second time visiting here, we had a convivial time with well plated food and tasty meals made by a french chef. There isn't hamburger on this menu but provincial dishes to please like asperagus tartin, an entree of different fish. Very upscale ingredients. Wine and alcohol are offered.

You won't be disappointed and the prices are reasonable for the menu fixe at 19 euros which is very filling as of...

This was a very nice place to have our first dinner here in the city. The concierge at the hotel gave us this location, I must say not a lot of people come that need English because nothing in English, which makes it a little bit more complicated for us. We ended up with shrimp and the beef and fish which was tuna and we had profiteroles for dessert which was outstanding and burrata which also was very good. The staff was excellent. They really tried to help us, they could speak a little English, but not!! A lot !!it ...
