La Parenthese sur Saint-Jean-De-Maurienne

15/02/2026: Well, first of all, thank you anyway for a table for Valentine's Day, as the entire restaurant was full. As for the service, frankly, it was far too slow, 45 minutes. We arrived before three other couples, and the waitress served regulars or acquaintances, which already sets the tone for the service. No aperitif, not a single nibble. The main course, the goat cheese salad was advertised as having croutons, but it was more like toasted bread. The basic cuisine was average. The dish listed on the menu was frozen, so the taste was mediocre. The pinch of salt on slightly overcooked meat was pointless. The vegetables weren't fresh, more like canned or frozen, not great at all, and I never saw any bread on the table. For a bill of €135, that stings. I'm really disappointed. I used to come here a few years ago, and it was a crêperie, and it was very good. Now, it's just okay, but it's alright in a pinch.

14/02/2026: Arriving at our ski resort... we stopped for lunch at a beautifully decorated place. A very warm welcome! Excellent food and efficient service. We'll definitely be back. Very friendly!
