- Very friendly staff, they even got us dropped off at our hotel after our dinner! We really appreciated this, especially given it was Christmas night.
- The food is ok. We were hoping for a tasting menu or something a bit more special. It’s à la carte and the flavours weren’t bad but also not remarkable.
- We were ready to splurge on a special Christmas dinner, which we didn’t end up doing because the prices were quite reasonable. So the price & quality are a match.
- The décor is… :(((. Quelle dommage to take such a gorgeous old building and decorate it with this inexplicable furniture by the beautiful fireplace. Then the fake plastic fireplace and the plastic Orchids, all taking away from the ambiance.

Much improved in the last year. Gone are the loud bus loads of Chinese tourists. We ate outside near the pool, this new space is lovely. The food and service very good.

The food was just okay. The steak was over cooked (see the gray rim) and the flavors of the other items were fine

Lamb/palenta and chocolate soufflé were absolutely excellent. Rabbit terrine as a starter was interesting. Pesto risotto needed to be a side, not a main course. A great fine dining experience.

Impeccable French cuisine in a cozy atmosphere!

Beautiful presentation of food. Loved the amuse-bouche and mini-complimentary desserts.

The lamb confit was to die for! Never had a more tender serving.

Highly recommend if in Chamonix!!
