L'Edelweiss sur Val-D'Isere

06/02/2026: We visited for lunch and ate in le cave - it was very snowy out so couldn’t eat outside but our main disappointment was the food - one of the dishes in particular , the boeuf bourguignon was particularly disappoint, the beef and carrots were nice but the sauce was so watery and the price for a poorly executed stew was far too high. All our other meals in the area have been much better quality and you pay a premium to eat here - I would skip the restaurant, not worth it. The staff were lively though and the wine was good.

06/02/2026: A classic Folie Douce. Returning after 13 years, it’s clear the place has been revamped and expanded. That said, unless there’s a guest DJ (and even then) the music can feel repetitive—sometimes even following almost the same order day after day. It would be refreshing to see DJs take more risks and introduce new tracks to discover. The reliance on well-known classics seems to be the price Folie Douce pays for its massive popularity and the need to please a broad crowd. Still, blending those classics with a more progressive, daring selection would keep the experience fresh and engaging, especially for visitors spending a full week in Val d’Isère.
