Le Passe-Montagne sur Montriond

26/03/2026: A truly excellent mountain restaurant with a wonderful atmosphere. The portions are generous. The service is impeccable and the ambiance is very welcoming. It's rare to find owners who take such good care of their employees, and it shows in the overall atmosphere. Hats off to all the kitchen, service, and management staff. A restaurant not to be missed.

25/03/2026: Alpine restaurant right on the slopes with simple yet delicious mountain cuisine. We visited this restaurant twice, charmed by its ideal location at the foot of the slopes and by its honest, unpretentious food. The menu isn't particularly original—most dishes are simple and straightforward (cheese specialties like tartiflette, savory buckwheat crepes, omelets, salads, etc.). On our first visit, we tried the goat cheese salad, which was good but not memorable, as well as the tartiflette, which wasn't particularly successful. However, the duck breast with thyme sauce and dauphinoise potatoes left a very good impression. On our second visit, I opted for the butcher's special with green peppercorn sauce: a pleasant surprise, with flavorful and perfectly cooked meat. This time, we left room for dessert—and we were right to do so. The chocolate and salted caramel crepe was delicious, as was the blueberry tart, generously filled with fruit and boasting an intense blueberry flavor. The service was pleasant and efficient. The main drawback is the rather unpleasant atmosphere due to the large number of customers and the high noise level, which can become quite overwhelming during peak hours. In short, this restaurant is a convenient and enjoyable stop during a day of skiing, offering simple yet tasty cuisine and good value for money.
