A truly beautiful, two-Michelin-starred restaurant at the foot of the Aravis mountains. We received a very warm welcome at this restaurant with impeccable service. The Chef delighted us with the special fish menu, "À l'Onde des Cîmes," a dish of exquisite finesse, yet with a delightful zest that served as a guiding thread throughout the meal. Thank you to the entire team for this wonderful experience, as refined as it was delicious.

We had lunch at this restaurant today.
The downsides:
- We were very displeased that this gourmet restaurant allows pets. This is truly unacceptable for a Michelin-starred establishment. Their barking disturbed us, and we find it unhygienic to allow animals in this type of establishment (even though we have a pet ourselves). This is also disrespectful to the other customers who wish to enjoy their meal in peace and quiet.
- It's unfortunate that there aren't enough parasols, forcing us to move our tables (and thus sit close to the neighboring tables) because of the sun. Just two more parasols would solve this problem!
- - When I went to the restroom at the end of the meal, there were no more hand towels.
- Our table had large stains upon arrival, which is not what one would expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant.
- The wine pairing was overpriced.
The Pros
- Very beautiful and pleasant terrace
- Excellent food with lovely, elegant presentation
- Friendly staff
- The chef was very kind and we met him at the end of the meal
- Large free parking lot nearby

The dishes were divine from start to finish. Kudos to the chef and the entire kitchen team for the quality of the food; we thoroughly enjoyed it.
However, the service unfortunately didn't live up to the quality of the food, which is a real shame. I particularly disliked the way one person addressed me. A bit more professionalism and respect for restaurant etiquette would be truly necessary to make the experience worthy of the dishes.
I'm giving it 5 stars because the quality of the food and the chef's kindness more than justify them, even if the service wasn't up to par.

A superb experience at Maison Benoit Vidal. The service was top-notch, with incredibly friendly and professional waiters and waitresses. The setting is beautiful, a quiet, shaded spot. We even had the pleasure of meeting the chef at the end of our meal. A truly wonderful experience; every dish was more delicious and visually stunning than the last.

Great food! Chef was great! Terrace wasn’t open for dinner sadly, but otherwise the service and atmosphere were also good overall, despite one or two small communication issues. The experience was very much valued and the gluten free accommodation for us both was quite nice! Thank you for a great tasting experience!

We went here for lunch and the food were exceptional.
The first few courses all came in a variety of small dishes, each of them were beautifully made, all well presented like pieces of art.
The starter was garden vegetables with some fish pieces and an amazing fish based source, I finally understood why the cooking shows made such a big deal when the vegetables were picked from the restauranta back garden! The vegetables on that plant were all lightly seasoned but they all tasted incredible!
We had guinea fowl as the main, the meat was really nicely cooked, very soft and moist, the ravioli with mushroom was super tasty and the highlight of the dish (as if it wasn't great already), was the grilled little leg / drumstick, it was full of flavour. The source, which they left the jar on the table, was exceptional, I basically kept pouring more and more on the plate, as a tipping to finish the bread.
The desserts were great, never had a kiwi based dessert and it was very refreshing, but the Petits Fours were the best I have ever had anyway (and I have been to many estaurants!)
We also went on a sunny day, the view from their garden was incredible. Overall, an exceptional dinning experience, if you are visit the area, you must visit this restaurant for sure!

A truly wonderful experience.
This establishment richly deserves its distinction. Each course was delicious and flavorful. We appreciated their original and sophisticated presentation as much as the quality of the ingredients.
The staff is attentive and friendly. The conversation with the chef at the end of the meal was delightful.
A truly lovely time in a pleasant setting, enjoying the beautiful weather on the terrace. We highly recommend it.
