Restaurant Le Prieure sur Megeve

I have travelled extensively over more than 40 years, dining in restaurants ranging from small family-run places to Michelin three-star establishments. This is my honest review of the restaurant Le Prieuré in Megève, France. We had a wonderful lunch at this charming French bistro in the heart of Megève, right next to the church on the village square. The shaded terrace is a lovely place to enjoy a relaxed summer meal, and the staff were genuinely warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. We chose the daily set menu, which offered excellent value for money. It started with a beautifully presented smoked beet carpaccio, sliced paper-thin and wonderfully fresh and summery. The main course was a perfectly cooked pork tenderloin with a rich wine sauce and crispy baby potatoes. We also ordered the poultry with morel sauce, which was equally delicious. The chicken was of excellent quality, with a texture reminiscent of Bresse poultry, and the sauce was generous with morels, complemented by other mushrooms for extra depth of flavour. To finish, we enjoyed a creamy tiramisu topped with crunchy hazelnuts, a truly indulgent dessert. Everything was well prepared, tasty, and fairly priced, and the friendly service made the experience even more enjoyable. The only small point worth mentioning is that the main course took a little longer than expected to arrive. Other than that, it was an excellent experience, and we would happily return.

Really good quality, good food, service and atmosphère. Perfect meat.

A very good meal with impeccable service from Manon (new recruit!) and Eliot, the "veteran," always attentive and with his three years of experience, I believe! Let's not forget Aurélien and his discreet yet effective management! Great food and a great atmosphere among the young team—well done!

The food was delicious, fresh, and tasty; the waiter was very friendly, and the terrace was quiet and pleasant.

Warm welcome, delicious food, friendly staff from start to finish. I haven't eaten so well in a while! The attention to detail in dishes that might seem "basic" is incredible.

The perfect romantic birthday dinner.

Perfect restaurant during the off-season, very pleasant waiter and very good food.

Superb place, excellent young waiter, very friendly, and the food was exceptional. We had a wonderful time (3 stars for the pan-fried morels 👏).

Thank you for the wonderful service; the waiter was pleasant and attentive from start to finish. Thank you so much, and a big thank you to the kitchen for this delicious meal. Quentin and Julie

I had the pleasure of discovering this restaurant with my partner on a beautiful Saturday, April 18, 2026. Absolutely delicious! My bisque was simply divine, and my black pudding was simply divine. My partner devoured his lamb main course, and his mushroom gratin appetizer was excellent. The staff was very attentive; the lady in particular was very kind and even recommended an excellent red wine to accompany my meal. The paintings on the restaurant walls are fabulous; congratulations to the artist, Thierry.
