It can be very hard to find a good restaurant in France open Monday evenings. The Edelweiss was one of the very few in Laval and certainly the most highly rated. There are eight in our group, and since the restaurant is small we reserved in advance, probably a good thing since the restaurant appeared to be full. The location near the train station is nothing special nor is the inside setting and the service lacked attention at times, we had to pour our own wine and request another bottle when empty.But the food was very good. One of our group had the Ravioles de Homard de « lâEdelweiss » which he claimed was the best dish he had during our entire two week stay in France. I had the Croustillant dâEscargots dâEntrammes, Persillade aux Fruits secs as an appetizer and found it a little blah but very interesting. I followed that with the Duo de Paleron Laqué, Ris de Veau poêlé sauce Morilles which again was very good but not outstanding. Later in the trip I had some sweetbreads that were the best I had ever had!The rest of the menu was equally inventive and everyone enjoyed their meal.It should be noted that the chef now owns another restaurant outside Ghateau-Gonthier in Azé called Le Prieuré that offers the same menu. We would have stopped there on Wednesday except it is closed that day. The setting above the river of this restaurant is probably far superior to the Edelweiss in Laval.

Since moving to a new location, I feel this restaurant has lost some of it's charm. It is still in the centre of Laval but now on rue valfleury, in beautifully renovated premises, clean, modern and tasteful.I had the set lunch there on Thursday this week and found it to be acceptable but not the best, nothing special. The lunchtime cost is a few euros above the norm and I did not think that this warranted the extra cost. Perhaps the à la carte would have been better and I will probably go back again to check it out.In the past I have had evening meals there which I have always enjoyed very much.However, I wish the young chef owner all the best and will be back.

Went for evening meal. Ordered fish and chips. The chips were very poor - not crisp and unpeeled potatoes. Soft soggy and uninteresting. The fish was ok but for the price not good enough. Would not return. It was very noisy with children crying. Service was good but that was all.

On vient ici pour dejeuner correctement entre deux Rdv ou en étape sur la route ou entre deux séances de travail si on travaille dans le secteurOn y est bien accueilli mais il s agit typiquement de ce genre d endroit ou tout le monde se presse entre 12 et 14La salle est lumineuse, simple les tables sont serrées et le fond est un peu bruyantLes plats sont plutôt bien cuisinés, les produits tres correctsLa joue de porc était plutôt bonne, le vin au verre ( un saint-émilion) bon
