L'Instant Gourmand

The roadside restaurant, but not only that, as I love. Service with a smile, simple and very good cuisine (special mention for the pig's trotter ingot). In short, it's a pleasure to find these restaurants on the vacation route.

A lovely discovery along the way. A very warm welcome, a room for the daily menus and an à la carte dining room extended by a veranda overlooking a pretty garden where the chickens roam. A tempting menu, all homemade. We enjoyed ourselves: country terrine, pig's trotter ingot, beef ravioli (a delight, fresh pastry), calf's head, profiteroles (undeniably homemade choux pastry).

Discovered by chance on the road between the Paris region and St. Malo. It's worth getting off the highway. You can choose between the workers' restaurant (14.90 for the full menu) or the traditional restaurant, which we opted for. Friendly and welcoming service. Simple, homemade dishes made with quality ingredients. I had the beef ravioli, which were very good and beautifully presented. The beef tartare and the sirloin steak were also popular. For dessert, the French toast was the biggest hit!

Discovered by chance during my visit, the Instant gourmand is worth a stop. 2 rooms with a bistro formula at 14.90 starter main course dessert but without choice and a room plus restaurant with a formula at 20.20 starter main course dessert with choice and a menu provided. Smiling welcome and dynamic, fast service. The products are quality with a variety of dishes that will please everyone. Would I come back? Yes if passing through the area without hesitation

I recently had the opportunity to discover L'Instant Gourmand, following a suggestion from the guesthouse where I was staying, and it was a wonderful culinary experience! It offers a warm and friendly atmosphere, with attentive staff who are passionate about their work. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. In the kitchen, the dishes live up to their name: a truly gourmet experience. The chef offers refined, well-presented dishes using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Each bite reveals a perfect balance of flavors and textures. A special mention goes to my homemade fine-paw dish with its shrimp and scallop skewer, which was delicious. The menu offers a good balance between tradition and creativity. From starter to dessert, everything is masterfully executed, and each dish is a true surprise for the taste buds. Finally, the value for money is excellent given the quality of the food served. I recommend L'Instant Gourmand without hesitation for a moment of pleasure and culinary discovery. It's a place not to be missed if you're passing through. PS: Thank you for introducing me to Chenin.

Following a very positive review on Google, we decided to stop in for a meal. The first room serves the daily specials, with a "starter, main course, and dessert" menu at very affordable prices. The second room serves "à la carte" dining, decorated in a chic and understated style, just what you need to feel at home. The food is very good 😋, a nice surprise with the beef-stuffed ravioli and their crushed tomatoes!!!! The cheeses were well-balanced and very good. For those who prefer beef, I recommend the beef tartare 😋👍!!! The staff is very friendly and pleasant. Very good value for money. If I have the opportunity, I will go back 😊😊😊

I stopped to use the restroom in exchange for a coffee, and the welcoming smile immediately encouraged me to stay for lunch. The presentation of the menu piqued my curiosity, which led me to eat more than planned without regret. As a true Parisian, I even kindly complained about a minor detail, and received surprising consideration in return. In short, I was very pleasantly surprised by the welcome and the attention paid to the food and service. Bravo! And contrary to other comments, don't change the ugly decor, or everyone will come here, and I won't have a seat next time I come!

While passing through the area, we got off the highway to eat, and we chose this restaurant, whose name sounded perfect for a family break ☺️ Well, we highly recommend this stop! 😍 A very warm welcome, a lovely setting, and I can tell you that your taste buds won't be disappointed! From main course to dessert, it was a delight! (As much for the eyes as for the taste buds, by the way.) Homemade, and it shows! Our three little ones (5, 9, and 11 years old) loved it! If you're passing by, give it a try; you won't be disappointed! Congratulations to the chef ⭐

A very good choice of restaurants on the way to and from your holiday destination, very good food, great staff. I recommend it.

We stopped there for lunch. We discovered it on Google Maps. The reviews were excellent. I can confirm and highly recommend it. The food is perfect, with beautiful presentation. And finally, the service is top-notch. Thanks to the whole team. 👏👏👏 Good luck!

We stopped for lunch and discovered a restaurant that won us over. The quality was there, the prices were reasonable, and the welcome was warm and friendly. A wonderful discovery, and we'll be happy to stop again next time.

Restaurant found on our vacation route, pleasantly surprised both by the quality of the welcome and by the refinement of the dishes, we can only recommend the detour because unlike some who cannot help but find a fault we did not find any! Bravo!
