Les Châtaigniers sur Saint-Jorioz

08/09/2026: It's pretty good and the service is friendly. There's a large parking lot, which is a real plus considering the neighborhood. You can also play mini-golf.

02/09/2026: A huge congratulations to the new owner of the Lac & Montagne restaurant in Saint-Jorioz, who has transformed an establishment whose previous concept had nothing to do with Savoyard cuisine and offered "exceptional" dishes where only the bill was truly exceptional. Today, the change is clear, visible, and above all, very successful. The restaurant benefits from easy access, a reserved parking area, and a pleasant setting with its mini-golf course, perfect for extending the experience (even if, after a tartiflette, aiming for the hole becomes a high-level sport). Upon arrival, we received a prompt, warm, and very friendly welcome. Our order was taken within a very reasonable timeframe, with commendable transparency: we were informed that the tartiflette required 20 minutes of preparation. And the promised delivery times were perfectly respected. We chose two tartiflettes and two rib-eye steaks: the dishes were generous, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Special mention goes to the tartiflette, whose amount of cheese would make any Savoyard melt with delight. The prices are reasonable, finally in line with the quality and generous portions. After the meal, we played a round of mini-golf: a very enjoyable activity, even if digestion makes some of the obstacles a bit more… athletic. In short: The new owner has breathed new life and value into this place that I've known for 50 years. Well done! We will gladly return.
