“ Lovely spot. With great food and great service. Will be going again. ”
“ A lovely, busy, friendly restaurant. Serving hearty and tasty food at a reasonable price. They're always busy, but still Tey to accommodate everyone, never turning anyone away. They work so hard. Xx ”
“ We last ate here in January 24. We all had the plat de jour which was excellent. The food was well presented, very tasty, and good quality. We've eaten here lots of times before, both before and after the rebuild. The new building is lovely, especially upstairs. The owner is really friendly, as you'd hope from a family business, but it's a busy restaurant so he always looks stressed :-) Always best to book in advance, especially if you want to be inside, as it is very popular in high season. We will definitely be coming back, as it one of our favourites. ”
“ Good food and great location. Service could be improved ”
“ A favourite for years, excellent service and banter. Great mountain cuisine. Great views, very easy to get to, on foot or skiing. ”
“ Excellent food, service, and location! Atmosphere relaxed and friendly, whether 30 or 300 clients. Fabulous team led by Germain & Pauline (owners) with Sebastian (front of house) - they run their business superbly Sunday special is spit-cooked honey roasted ham over dauphinoise potatoes for €21 with ham refills in the price (if they haven't run out!). Ski down to Montriond, then do it again 10x to work off the ham refill! I've been visiting these last 3 seasons, often taking new clients who all agree it's the best ham & dauphinoise on the mountain! Last Sunday also had the upside-down apple pie / amazing!! ”
“ During my one-week ski vacation, I visited many places, but this was the best. I have eaten here several times, and it can get crowded on weekends, especially Fridays, leading to longer wait times. However, the service is fast on weekdays when there’s usually a free table available. We ordered rösti and steak, and the food was both good and delicious. The washrooms were clean and hygienic, and the waitstaff were very kind. ”
